We have 4 brand new features in this release, bringing on the next generation of Giraffe functionality.
You asked, and we delivered.
We're so excited to introduce generative design in Giraffe. Create complex outputs in a snap with Smart Geometry and the Flow Builder.
Draw a shape using Giraffe's easy-to-use drawing tools, then apply a transform to add detail. Create apartment layouts, tree-lined avenues, or structural grids in a snap.
Build complexity simply. Add or remove transforms using an intuitive builder. See your results instantly. Adjust infinitely.
Array trees around your subdivision, or create a forest. Fill a donut-shaped building with a plaza, or a parking structure. The limit is up to your imagination.
Welcome to the next generation of GIS interrogation in Giraffe. Introducing Lens : bringing intuitive filtering and styling controls to your map data and project portfolio.
No more diving into code or creating custom Esri servers. Re-style any vector layer with a few clicks. Your data, your way.
See your portfolio of projects on the map while searching for parcels, searching for geospatial data, or right inside your project.
Filter away outlines or shapes that don't meet your criteria. Show buildings under a certain height, flood zones over a targeted rating, or even highlight 4G data connectivity - if the metadata is there, you can use it to filter.
Giraffe has always been about collaboration. Sharing data with stakeholders, engaging your peers, and designing at the speed of conversation.
Now, we've made collaboration even better.
Introducing: Live Cursors!
Get on the same page. Instantly see what your team is working on. Eliminate imprecise communication.
Updates made by your remote team show up in real-time. Shift how you design to be collaborative and connected, even at a distance.
Playfully co-author designs using all of the Giraffe tools you've come to know and love.
