REDLANDS, Calif.--()--Esri, the global leader in spatial analytics, announced today that it has signed an enterprise agreement with Harris Corporation. Also, Harris Corporation has become an Esri Platinum Tier partner. The agreement and partnership afford the corporation access to all Esri software and top-level benefits of the Esri Partner Network throughout the Harris space and intelligence systems segment. This commitment to collaboration will help programs across multiple security domains meet the expected surge of commercial imagery from small satellites, unmanned aerial system platforms, and open data sources.
