The story’s five 3D globe animations created in ArcGIS Pro greeted visitors as they took their seats at the opening of the plenary session. The premier of this series made a splash at the 2018 User Conference in San Diego.

The Human Reach, the first installment of the Esri Story Maps series Living in the Age of Humans, explores the extent of the human impact on the planet.
