Geoanalytics Server Join Tool fails when using temporal relationship and WGS84 services

Question

We're trying to get the new cool Join Tool in Geoanalytics (ArcGIS GeoAnalytics Server - YouTube ) to work, but we're running into some errors.

When we try to use a service that's stored in Big Data store we end up getting error with some of the Geoanalytics Tools. This seems to be because of the services being WGS84 geographic coordinate system.

When we try to run the join tool with a normal projected feature service we get it to work, but only if we don't set a temporal relationship in the tool. We get an error when we set a temporal relationship

Anyone else getting these errors or have a workaround?

Hi Sindre,

For your two issues:

The spatial "near" distance requires a projected coordinate system. You can set this using the Environement settings in Pro and Portal, or in the context parameters through REST.

For the second issue with the temporal relationship, have you applied the GeoAnalytics patch? There is a fix for the temporal operator on multiple machines that may fix your issue: ArcGIS Server 10.5 GeoAnalytics and GeoEvent Server Patch

Thanks,

Sarah

Hi Sindre,

Did you ever find a resolution for this? We haven't been able to get the Join tool to work at all!
