Arcreader and GPS

deleted-user-9ujT9FUOR8MM

I heard about an arcscript for arcreader 9.3 that would show your location on the map based on a gps connected to the laptop. Does anyone know where i can find one for version 10? Are arc scripts still being used for version 10?

BTW, there's no setup for 10.3 because VS 2013 doesn't come with an out-of-the-box setup project. I'm dropping support for this app anyway, and will not create a version for 10.4. I strongly recommend migrating to ArcGIS Runtime. Collector and AppStudio are also viable approaches for non-programmers.

Thank you for the quick reply,

I have it on both. I went ahead and ran the installer from 10.2, then

created the apps folder as it is listed in the reg file, restarted the

machine and it started working. Thank you!!

You need to make sure it’s also installed on the ArcReader machine. See the FAQ for other tips.

Hey partner, I have 10.3, but the 10.3 version i downloaded does not have a setup file. Therefore I ran the regedit file, then ran the add addin. I can get the gps layer to show in ARCmap but it does not show when I open the published file from said map. Not sure what I am doing wrong. Did I miss something?

Thank you

has anybody changed the symbol for this (pierssen script.) I followed the direction and got it to work
but it was to small on the screen.
when I load the new symbol you don't have any control on selecting the size of it

Hi Mark,
I install, make a tool and add GPS Layer but am then unable to save my mxd and ArcMap crashes everytime I try and publish it. Have you heard of this happening?

cheers,
Leon.

I have not been able to comment out the code and compile the application because I don't have vb. Is there another way to test this or comment out the code? Or anyway I could get you to comment out the code for me to test?

MarkCederholm

Study the OnClick sub in AddGPSLayerButton.vb

I'm trying to work with our dredging and survey teams. The dredge crew has no idea where they are in respect to the surveyed points. So we've created a ArcReader project for them with a GPS input and display. The problem is I can't put the GPS on the dredge header because it will get too wet. If I put on one of the pontoons the dredgers can't tell when they are outside the boundary with the other pontoon. So if I can put a GPS on each pontoon this will solve my problem. If you have any other suggestions please let me know.

What file in the code to I need to comment the line out?

MarkCederholm

Do you want multiple layers for one GPS unit? That's definitely not possible, because the app locks the serial port. That's why you can't have other GPS software running, because it will also lock the port. If you want to support multiple GPS units on different ports I guess that might be possible, but my question would be "Why?" A quick test would be for you to download the code from the web site, comment out the lines checking for an existing layer, and see if it actually works.

We are using the Custom GPS Layer for ArcReader and it works great. We've got a project coming up where we'd like to add 2 GPS layers but are unable too. Is there any chance you'd be interested in developing this further so we could add 2 GPS layers to 1 ArcReader project? Or do you know of another possible solution?

MarkCederholm

The old ArcScripts site is frozen, and the new code gallery is seriously FUBAR: I just can't get uploads to work. The latest version of the GPS Custom Layer for ArcReader is available directly from my own web site:

http://www.pierssen.com/arcgis10/arcreader.htm

If I can ever get the code gallery to work for me 😞 I'll post it there as well.
