2025 Esri UC: Eos Positioning Systems’ Recap Video

Eos Positioning Systems® (Eos) was proud to return as a Gold Sponsor to the 2025 Esri User Conference (Esri UC) in San Diego, California. This year, we were excited to continue showcasing the Skadi Series™ and Arrow Series® GNSS receivers while connecting with thousands of GIS professionals from around the world. 

Our booth saw terrific engagement from mapping professionals of all backgrounds and industries. We were thrilled to meet new faces, catch up with longtime customers, and learn how mapping professionals are using Eos technology to shape the future of work and our world.

To celebrate another unforgettable Esri UC, we’ve created a highlight video featuring some of our favorite moments. Watch the recap and scroll through a gallery of photos capturing our experience at the 2025 Esri UC!

Later that morning, the Eos team made our way to the expo hall to see booth 925 begin to take shape. We got a behind-the-scenes look at the setup process, thanks to the skilled vendors hard at work making our vision come true.

Right after the plenary, Skadi took to the sky in the expo hall, ready to fly the Eos flag for all GIS users curious about getting higher accuracy in their Esri apps.

The energy was high as the exhibit hall opened on Tuesday, July 15. From the moment the doors opened, a steady stream of GIS professionals made their ways to our booth to talk about GNSS. Our team had a blast hearing firsthand how attendees are tackling real-world mapping challenges with high-accuracy solutions. The curiosity, questions, and conversations made for an inspiring start to our week. Though the traffic was high, our energy was boosted by learning about everyone’s work.

At the Esri UC Fun Run, we were surprised to see an unexpected participant: Skadi herself!

ASM Affiliates GIS Specialist Manny Lopez made an offer we couldn’t refuse. Loan him a Skadi GNSS receiver for the annual Esri UC 5k, and he would run the race with Skadi and ArcGIS Field Maps! In our opinion, the Esri UC 5k has never been mapped so precisely. But don’t take our word for it; check out the map Manny made …

A Full House for High-Accuracy GNSS Insights at Our Hosted Lunch

On Wednesday, Esri UC attendees also joined us for one of our favorite annual traditions — our hosted lunch session, “What’s New in High-Accuracy GNSS/GIS for Esri Users.” The room was packed with mapping professionals eager to dive into the latest technology shaping field data collection.

Attendees waited for doors to open at the annual Eos lunchtime session, “What’s New in High Accuracy GNSS/GIS for Esri Users” at San Diego Convention Center. We were blown away at the terrific questions and engagement everyone brought to the presentation!
