4. GeoNet Community Member Success Stories
Rebecca Strauch
“I am a GIS analyst, developer and ArcGIS Server administrator.  When it comes to issues I come across, I typically don’t have anyone in the office that I can talk to.  GeoNet is like a very large, extended peer group.”
“It’s incredible how many times I see something that could help me improve the project I’m working on right now, or something I want to look into later.”
Robert Scheitlin
“We as a community have seen changes in the software based on group conversations and the development staff’s participation. 
“I have seen and been involved in several collaborations for widget development that would probably not have occurred if it not had been for the connections to other members in the group.”
