Our IT staff utilizes VPN, allowing me to remote into my desktop computer at my office. I haven’t experienced any issues with accessing GIS or any of the other software on that computer. I have successfully used both my own tablet/laptop and the virtual desktop computer provided to me by IT (I was working on a 13” tablet/laptop…for ArcGIS! Had to change!)

Greetings everyone, 

 

I’m seeking peoples experiences with accessing their organizations’ GIS data from home. I’m working with a small nonprofit that has, like many others, transitioned to more remote access since Covid. They have a file server in house which is currently being accessed via VPN. They don’t utilize the full capabilities of ArcGIS enterprise and, up until recently, things were running smoothly. They’re investigating retooling their GIS to allow easier and more integrated methods of accessing GIS data from off site. One suggested solution, that I’m a fan of, is to invest in a dedicated Remote Desktop /VM server so all the data and the computational load is server side and not client side. I’m curious what you’re all experiencing during these times; I’m sure we’re not alone! 

 

Many thanks,

 

Adam
