ArcGIS is not directly mentioned in the provided context from WWDC. However, if you are interested in spatial computing and augmented reality (AR) technologies, Apple has introduced several updates and tools that could be relevant to similar applications. Here are some sessions that might be of interest:
- Platforms State of the Union - This session discusses the foundation of VisionOS and the integration of frameworks like SwiftUI, RealityKit, and ARKit for developing spatial apps.
- Create enhanced spatial computing experiences with ARKit - This session covers updates to ARKit on VisionOS, including scene understanding, room tracking, and plane detection.
- Explore object tracking for visionOS - This session introduces object tracking capabilities in VisionOS, which can be used to anchor virtual content to real-world objects.
- Discover area mode for Object Capture - This session introduces updates to Object Capture, including a new area mode for capturing 3D models of uneven terrain and large objects.
These sessions provide insights into the tools and frameworks that Apple offers for creating advanced spatial computing experiences, which could be useful for applications similar to ArcGIS.

Discover area mode for Object Capture
Discover how area mode for Object Capture enables new 3D capture possibilities on iOS by extending the functionality of Object Capture to support capture and reconstruction of an area. Learn how to optimize the quality of iOS captures using the new macOS sample app for reconstruction, and find out how to view the final results with Quick Look on Apple Vision Pro, iPhone, iPad or Mac. Learn about improvements to 3D reconstruction, including a new API that allows you to create your own custom image processing pipelines.

Create enhanced spatial computing experiences with ARKit
Learn how to create captivating immersive experiences with ARKit’s latest features. Explore ways to use room tracking and object tracking to further engage with your surroundings. We’ll also share how your app can react to changes in your environment’s lighting on this platform. Discover improvements in hand tracking and plane detection which can make your spatial experiences more intuitive.

Build a spatial drawing app with RealityKit
Harness the power of RealityKit through the process of building a spatial drawing app. As you create an eye-catching spatial experience that integrates RealityKit with ARKit and SwiftUI, you’ll explore how resources work in RealityKit and how to use features like low-level mesh and texture APIs to achieve fast updates of the users’ brush strokes.
