In February 2022, after Russian forces crossed into Ukraine, France—then NATO Response Force lead—activated the Disaster Response Program. Esri quickly supported the military by organizing a 14 TB data transfer from the U.S. to Europe within four days, ensuring delivery to the armed forces. This operation proved Esri’s ability to provide fast, reliable support during crises and confirmed the efficiency of its Disaster Response Program.
