maps produced by ESRI's software are really just the door prize. maps produced by ESRI's software are really just the door prize. In other words, the maps, as compelling and necessary as they may be, are simply a means to deliver the information and insights contained in the spatially oriented data and revealed through GIS analysis. - Jack Dangermond ESRI View of GIS
