ArcGIS for Water Utilities on GitHub

In case you missed it, earlier this month, we launched a series of ArcGIS for Local Government GitHub repositories to share source code for our web, desktop, and mobile applications. For those that aren’t familiar with GitHub, it is a code sharing and social networking site for the developer community.  Here is the original blog.

http://blogs.esri.com/esri/arcgis/2012/12/10/arcgis-for-local-government-apps-available-now-on-github/

This week, we added the Water Utilities, Address and Capital Planning desktop tools to the local government desktop add ins repository.  You can now access all the source code for these tool sets and contribute your additions back.  We are also working on the Mobile Map template and should have that posted shortly.
