System of record
Feature services, enterprise geodatabases, and identity — Esri still owns the operational GIS layer for many federal and utility orgs.
Why Esri
When ArcGIS is the architecture
Most of my career lives here: Portal, Server, geodatabases, Python ETL, and secure web maps. This lab is where I show modern Maps SDK patterns on top of that foundation.
Maps SDK for JS
Modern web clients can sit on the same services as ArcGIS Pro. I use that bridge for dashboards, editing tools, and Vector Ledger–style workflows.
Python + geoprocessing
ArcPy, REST admin APIs, and scheduled ETL remain how large agencies keep layers trustworthy at scale.
Security context
TS/SCI environments, Portal auth, and network isolation change how you design maps. This hub will document those constraints honestly.
Built with Esri
Playground projects
Live client work stays private. Public demos and architecture notes will land here alongside Vector Ledger.
Vector Ledger
ArcGIS-connected editing and validation with lakehouse patterns — Iceberg, GeoParquet, and changelog history.

Maps SDK scratchpad
A public Maps SDK for JavaScript lab — layers, popups, and editing patterns without client data.

Same pattern, more stacks
Mapping and cloud playgrounds — each hub explains why I use the platform and links demos as they ship.
