A diagram showing that, given Parquet’s increasing use across industries, ArcGIS Pro 3.5 supports it natively with folder connections and cloud storage connections, allowing you to visualize, query, and analyze Parquet data directly within ArcGIS.

ArcGIS Pro 3.5 includes new and updated capabilities for geospatial visualization and analysis, including enhanced support for Apache Parquet, a cloud-friendly columnar storage format optimized for efficient data access & analytics.
