Create relationship classes in a mobile geodatabase (Geodatabase.CreateRelationshipClassAsync)
Since 200.x, the Native Maps SDKs can build a mobile geodatabase schema at runtime. Geodatabase.CreateAsync, CreateTableAsync(TableDescription) and CreateDomainAsync(DomainDescription) cover tables, fields and domains. Relationship classes are the missing piece: they can only be created in ArcGIS Pro. Once one exists, the…

Statistic Widget Filter Not Working for Fields with Domains
I'm having an issue with the Statistic widget filter when filtering a field that has a coded value domain. The filter appears to expect an exact value. However, because the field has a domain configured, I can't manually enter the underlying value and can only select one of the available domain values. When I select a…

Nature in 3D meshes problem
Why can't trees and other vegetation come out clearly in 3D meshes like inanimate objects do when processed in Drone2Map? I've done automated 3D drone missions at DJI's minimum 30m altitude (for terrain awareness) and manual drone flights as low as 5m off the ground of tree planting areas. Inanimate objects come out…

ArcGIS Velocity Admin URL shows public IP and not FQDM
ArcGIS Enterprise 12.1 running in Azure. I recently installed Velocity on a dedicated VM that has a public IP address. However, when I go to setup the site hostname, it defaults to the VM's public IP. I tell it to specify a new hostname as example.domain.com and that seems to work fine. However, when i go into the Velocity…

Hi all, I'm looking into interchange files and trying to figure out how they were compressed. Per the documentation, they could be non-compressed, partially compressed, or fully compressed. This was done entirely in ASCII compression. What method was used to compress them? Thanks!

Assign a default region for Living Atlas
It would be great if you could set the default region for your organisation's Living Atlas rather than each user having to use the filter each time they search content. This could be an option within the Living Atlas' settings under Organisation>Settings in both ArcGIS Online and Portal for ArcGIS.

Support relationship-based filtering and symbology in Field Maps, including offline
We use ArcGIS Field Maps to manage infrastructure assets and the activities associated with them. Each asset has a geometry and can have multiple related activity records, such as inspections and maintenance measures. Our intended data model is straightforward: geometry belongs to the asset, while activities are stored in…
