Scanning ArcGIS online content in Site Scan Flight is slow

Question

In the Site Scan Flight iOS app you can connect to ArcGIS Online to provide reference layers for navigating the drones.

However, the time taken from when a connection is made to when the list of layers and folders is available is very slow. In fact it appears as if it times out.

Why would Site Scan Flight be taking so long to retreview the folder and layers lists from ArcGIS Online?

Hello @JavierSosa this is particularly important now that we are able to select shapes from ArcGIS Online to create the flight path

Hello Gordon,

ArcGIS Online layers appear slower in the Site Scan Flight app than other ArcGIS apps because all your content, including sub-layers, are loaded at the same time to allow you to select individual sub-layers for flight planning.

We appreciate your feedback and will look into ways to improve loading time.

Best regards,
Javier
