- The original starters of ESRI Software (precursor of Google Mapping – ArcGIS, a Desktop product of the Environmental Systems Research Institute (ESRI) were doing earth mapping research using geo-information data of the US Department of Interior latitude-longitude data. NASA is an agency under the Department of Interior. The Earth orbiting satellites science and engineering needed further refined lat-lon research for precise near earth satellite orbits. SCA started its own company funded research (1991) for global mapping software using NASA lat-lon. ESRI group were comparing SCA mapping data to benchmark ArcGIS. In 2014, Esri had approximately a 43 percent share of the GIS software market worldwide, more than any other vendor.
