It has been a big year for advancements in deep learning here at Esri. We have added new pretrained deep learning models, new and enhanced data types, tasks and experiences, updates to the developer story and introduced a new SaaS offering. These updates have been made to support optimized workflows for our GIS Analysts, Developers and Data Scientists among others.

The massive inflow of data in recent years, the growth of powerful processing and affordable data storage has given wheels to machine learning. Machine learning is an advanced technology that helps machines to learn from data. The performance of the solution solely depends on the data it is fed with. Earlier, the data flow was comparatively less. Henceforth, it took many years for machine learning technology to mature and come out rock headed in the market.
