Never miss out on any ArcGIS developer-related content again 😍 I know how difficult and time-consuming it can be to stay up to date these days, that's why I keep track of all of the ArcGIS developer-related content I can and share it through: www.rauljimenez.info/esridevs-soc...

The Esri Developer and Technology Summit 2026 is getting started!! As usual David Cardella starts the welcome session 😄 https://posts.rauljimenez.info/photos/2026/10/20/980a6 #indieweb

If I'm not wrong...😅, this will be my 8th year speaking at the Esri European Developer & Technology Summit!! So far... 33 talks + 6 more this year. https://posts.rauljimenez.info/photos/2026/10/15/d42ef #indieweb

If you don't have your tickets yets, Lei Koopmans has a 25% discount for you. You can find it on this fun video he made (you're welcome 😜😘) (2/2)

Ouch! I just noticed my automation didn't include the links. Let me share at least the 25% discount code in case you are not on LinkedIn and can not access the video: LeiKoopmansDiscount 😊

My manager, John Foster, wrote yesterday on dev.to about his concerns about where AI may be taking us as developers: https://dev.to/jf990/considering-our-collective-ai-future-54ch https://posts.rauljimenez.info/notes/2026/09/08/5f83e #indieweb

I share many of those concerns, but I also see some reasons for hope. What do you think? 🤔🙂 (2/2)

Recently, I've been using Google's AI search in a new way that I think is worth sharing. Sometimes I have a hard time remembering who said something on social media. The search tools provided by social media platforms are pretty limited, and I'm finding Google very helpful. Here's a screenshot

esri.comWhat’s New with the ArcGIS Geocoding Service? Explore June 2026 UpdatesJune 2026 Updates of the ArcGIS Geocoding Service

10 July

Have you ever wondered what location a geocoder returns when you search for a street number that doesn't actually exist, but falls within a known address range? At some point, the system has to estimate where that address would be.

I've been working at Esri for 11 years, and I'm still discovering features in technologies I thought I already knew inside out. That's one of the things I enjoy most about this field. 📖 More about "interpolatePointAddress": www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/...

developers.arcgis.com/findAddressCandidates | ArcGIS REST APIs | Esri DeveloperUse the ArcGIS Geocoding service to geocode by typing all address information into a single string.

10 July

📚 Geocoding API documentation: developers.arcgis.com/rest/geocode... 🧪 Want to try it yourself? We've also put together a Postman collection with ready-to-run examples covering these and many other geocoding scenarios: www.postman.com/esridevs/esr...

The latest ArcGIS Geocoding Service update is the new "interpolatePointAddress" parameter. Instead of falling back to a street-level approximation, it can interpolate between neighboring point addresses to return a much more accurate location when a rooftop address doesn't exist.

10 July

And if you're curious about why a particular candidate was matched, combine it with "returnMatchNarrative". It exposes detailed information about how every component of the input address was interpreted, which is incredibly useful for debugging or building better geocoding workflows.

On each package page, the call graph is tinted by test coverage: functions green where tests reach them, red where they don't. That needs the package to have tests. covr measures your own coverage; here you can see it for other packages too. r-observatory.thecoatlessprofessor.com/packages/Rcp...

New video that walks through building an ArcGIS application from start to finish. Covers importing real-world data into ArcGIS Online, publishing it, creating a web map, and loading it into the ArcGIS Maps SDK. Feedback and topic suggestions are always welcome! youtu.be/g9sv8h8aXYY #ArcGIS #GIS

Most developers assume AI orchestration belongs on the server, and that assumption makes sense for many systems. But what happens when the application's state already lives in the browser? 🤔 This post explains why our JS SDK team made that decision 😍

Heading to the Esri R&D center in Barcelona to meet with the rest of my folks 🥳. There, I'll repeat my "AI-infused development patterns - Lessons learned by Esri Engineers" talk, meet with our CTO of developer products, the new R&D manager, and my beloved friend John Vila 😍

This is spot on. The "what are you trying to do?" type of response on Stack Overflow, Reddit etc was annoying and often came from a not so kind place, but it was _necessary_. bhavesh.dev/Coding-Agent...
