Premium commercial imagery now available across ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Pro, and ArcGIS Enterprise
SAN DIEGO, CA, July 14, 2026 — SkyWatch today announced that Content Store for ArcGIS now supports ArcGIS Enterprise. Powered by the SkyWatch Platform, Content Store for ArcGIS is a native web application, built on and deeply integrated with ArcGIS, that lets users discover, purchase, and publish premium commercial imagery from satellites, aircraft, and drones.
Any ArcGIS Product
Content Store is now available across the full ArcGIS platform:
- ArcGIS Online
- ArcGIS Pro (via the Satellite Imagery for ArcGIS Pro Add-in)
- ArcGIS Enterprise (new)
- Hybrid environments running Online and Enterprise side by side
Any Deployment Model
The SkyWatch Platform enables a full range of enterprise deployment configurations:
- Multi-tenant (cloud-hosted, shared infrastructure)
- Single-tenant (dedicated cloud instance)
- Private cloud (customer-managed environment)
Organizations with strict data residency, network isolation, or compliance requirements can now access commercial imagery within their existing security posture, without compromising their architecture.
“ArcGIS environments in government, energy, and defence often span multiple products and deployment models. Content Store now works across that entire footprint,” said David Proulx, Chief Product Officer at SkyWatch. “Wherever ArcGIS is deployed, commercial imagery procurement is one step away, and it all flows through the Esri relationship your organization already has.”
What This Means in Practice
Regardless of how your organization has deployed ArcGIS, users can now:
- Discover commercial satellite, aerial, and drone imagery without leaving their ArcGIS environment.
- Purchase using their existing Esri credentials, billed to their Enterprise Agreement or separate purchase order.
- Publish licensed imagery directly as analyzable layers into ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise.
"Access to premium content is a critical part of how ArcGIS customers derive value from the platform. We are excited to continue our partnership with SkyWatch and to bring Content Store to the broadest possible audience of Esri customers, across every ArcGIS deployment."
All access controls, licensing rules, and procurement policies are enforced centrally through the SkyWatch Platform.
“Access to premium content is a critical part of how ArcGIS customers derive value from the platform,” said Deane Kensok, CTO, ArcGIS Content at Esri. “We are excited to continue our partnership with SkyWatch and to bring Content Store to the broadest possible audience of Esri customers, across every ArcGIS deployment.”
