Is it possible to remove the geometry from the schema, we have tested Map Fields and Select Fields and neither provides the ability.
@Meyer @brudo As an update, we have implemented this and it will go live with the 4.1 late February 2023 update of ArcGIS Velocity
Our Select Fields tool has been enhanced to offer an option to remove geometry from features in a real-time or big data analytic.
As a partial workaround: Although there isn't currently a supported way to remove the geometry from the schema, you can use Map Fields or Calculate Field to configure a different geometry - even of a different geometry type if necessary -which might be more relevant for the data. You could also set the Geometry to the Arcade expression null, in which case the output schema will still indicate the original geometry type, but the records will have no value for their geometry.
Thank you Peter, please do let me know if you require any use cases as motivation for this. We now have a geometry as part of our output data but it has no relevance to the accompanying data.
Hello! There is not currently a mechanism in ArcGIS Velocity real-time or big data analytics to remove geometry. We will add this as an idea to consider for enhancement in a future release.
For many feed and source types, you can choose to simply not configure geometry and therefore ingest tabular records. This is not an option however for Feature Layer feeds/sources, and certain Parquet files.
