If you have questions about accessing, licensing, or general technical support for products available through our Esri education institutional agreement, please email esri-support@osu.edu. We will do our best to respond to your inquiry within two business days.
This page contains information about accessing and licensing some of Esri's other desktop applications available through our education institutional agreement, including:
ArcGIS Desktop (ArcMap) is Esri's legacy desktop GIS application. ArcMap entered Mature Support in March 2024, and was retired from our education institutional agreement as of our July 1, 2024 license renewal.
With ArcMap no longer available through our educational license, we recommend that users migrate to ArcGIS Pro for their desktop GIS needs. Review Esri's documentation on Migrating from ArcMap to ArcGIS Pro for additional resources, and see the ArcGIS Pro page on this guide for information about using ArcGIS Pro at Ohio State. If you have questions or concerns regarding migrating from ArcMap to ArcGIS Pro, please email esri-support@osu.edu.
ArcGIS CityEngine is an advanced 3D modeling software for creating massive, interactive, and immersive urban environments in less time than with traditional modeling techniques. The cities you create using ArcGIS CityEngine can be based on real-world geographic information system (GIS) data or showcase a fictional city of the past, present, or future.
Installation files for ArcGIS CityEngine are made available through Ohio State's SharePoint organization, and you will be prompted to log in with your university credentials to download the files linked below.
