ArcReader created a GIS Interactive Map for staff to use called “Vaughan Viewer”. Through awareness number of staff went from 50 to greater than 300 in different departments across the organization. Requests for Mapping, Spatial Analysis and Asset Management was ignited. ArcReader has been a resilient tool to empower and promote GIS.
