Hi All,
I am attempting to upload a raster mosaic dataset from ArcGIS Pro to ArcGIS Online using the following process:
- Create a tile cache from a mosaic raster dataset (in this case color aerial photography) using the “Manage Tile Cache” tool in ArcGIS Pro. I choose recreate all tiles, select the ArcGIS Online tiling scheme, and set the minimum and maximum cached scales. I have been setting the minimum cached scale to 1:288895, and the maximum cached scale to 1:564 to save disk space and reduce the time taken to generate the cache. I use the boundary of the mosaic raster dataset for the area of interest, and leave the maximum source cell size value blank.
- I then run the "Export Tile Cache" tool to export the newly created tile cache to a Tile Package (tpk) suitable for uploading to ArcGIS Online.
- Finally, the “Share Package” tool is used upload the newly created tile package (tpk) to ArcGIS Online. Once uploaded, the tile package is published as a hosted tile layer. The visible range for the new tile layer is set all the way down to 1:71 (room) for the maximum scale. Even though cached images were not generated at this scale level, the layer should be drawn by resampling existing cached tiles. So, when I zoom down to the room level (1:71), the cached images created at the 1:564 scale should be visible, in theory. However, the image disappears and does not draw beyond the maximum cached scale.
Thoughts? What am I missing?
Thank you in advance, Jason
