Share your maps and apps

With ArcGIS Online, you can share your maps and other items publicly, or keep them private. Groups are a great way to collaborate with others. You can create your own public groups around specific topics, interests, or projects, or join other groups and share and access items from other group members. You can also embed your maps in web pages, blogs, and configurable web application templates.

Create maps and apps

You can use the built-in map viewer to make maps by adding your own data, or create mashups with maps and data published by others.

Manage your maps, apps, and data

ArcGIS Online includes an easy-to-use catalog using folders and groups, making it easy to manage and organise your maps, apps, and data. Your items are stored in the secure Esri cloud and you get 2 GB of free storage with your public account.
