The ArcGIS Solutions Geoprocessing Toolbox is a collection of models, scripts, and tools for use in ArcGIS for Desktop and ArcGIS Pro. These tools provide specialized processing, workflows, and analysis for defense, intelligence, emergency management, and other solutions domains. With these tools you can determine visibility from a specific viewpoint, create search grids, and analyze event data. They are included with many of Esri's Solutions Templates, but developers can use this repository to download and contribute to the tool development process.

The solutions-geoprocessing-toolbox repo is now supporting toolboxes for both ArcMap/ArcCatalog/ArcGlobe/ArcScene (collectively called ArcGIS for Desktop) and also ArcGIS Pro. Toolboxes that are modified in ArcGIS Pro are not backwards compatible with other ArcGIS Desktop applications (ArcMap), so most toolboxes are duplicated for one or the other. The naming of these toolboxes is as follows:
- Toolboxes that are for ArcGIS Desktop 10.4 will include _10.4 after the toolbox name. For example: Visibility and Range Tools_10.4.tbx
- Toolboxes with a 'unversioned' name are for ArcGIS Pro 1.1. For example: Visibility and Range Tools.tbx
Please note that some toolboxes are for ArcGIS Pro only, or ArcGIS Desktop 10.4 only. These toolboxes will follow the above naming convention, but will not have a duplicate.
