Basemap popups

Ed_

The Topographic 3D basemap is very useful basemap especially for use in apps like Instant 3D Scene Viewer. Now, in ArcPro, this basemap has popups enabled by default that gives you the building name and height which is very useful info imo.

However, both in Scene Viewer and the Instant Scene Viewer App, you can't select a feature on this basemap. And so just to have the popups you have to add an additional layer.

So kindly add the popup functionality for this basemap (and similar) so that the user does not have to add another layer to get the height and building name popup, cheers.

I actually found a way around it so the 3D topographic basemap is actually just a combination of

OpenStreetMap 3D Buildings

OpenStreetMap 3D Buildings & Trees

So, if you add these add them as layers from the Living Atlas then the popups work which can also be configured. And you can even change the color of the buildings.

Another plus point is that this way, you can also change the basemap as needed.

It will also help in saving on credits. Let's say you upload a layer with height and other information for a whole county, now such a dataset can be up to hundreds of MBs which can be costly in terms of storage credits.

@GIS_Fox yup exactly.

I've got around this by adding an additional building footprints layer to the map and labelling them with this attribute data or by enabling pop-ups for further review. Having this as a default would streamline and improve efficiency, at least in the set-up of maps using this feature.
