Simbología MIL-STD en el Mapa Web

Question

Estoy usando ARC PRO 2.6.2 y puedo usar el Military Symbol Editor para dibujar mis gráficos de superposición operativa.  Sin embargo, cuando quiero publicar en la web para una revisión/diseminación adicional, no puedo ver los símbolos 2525D en el mapa web (solo se representan "puntos" para las fuerzas enemigas).  Sin embargo, si comparto la capa de fuerzas enemigas como una capa web, los símbolos correctos se muestran pero pierdo la capacidad de editar en el mapa web.  ¿Alguien podría aclarar qué podría intentar/qué podría estar haciendo mal?<\/P>

Hi KerryRobinson,

I encountered quite a similar problem than Mathew, just that it applies to a custom dictionary style I created in ArcGIS Pro for a fire brigade. In fact, the dictionary works as expected in Pro allowing tactical drawings of engines and their actions at complex interventions (fictional example below).

My aim now is to apply these symbols to web maps in order to enable our Portal users to do their own tactical drawings. Concerning our ArcGIS infrastructure, we are on ArcGIS Enterprise Advanced 10.8.1. and the point, line and polygon feature classes supporting the drawings are in an enterprise geodatabase running on SQL Server.

As you indicated, I first published the dictionary style as a web style, then applied it to the feature classes in order to finally publish the map as map image and feature.

The problem now is that, in contrast to what I expected from reading the posts above, no feature gets drawn in Map Viewer Classic.

In Map Viewer Beta and Experience Builder, the feature layers are being drawn, while the map image layer is not rendered. Moreover, the final symbols don’t look as expected when compared to ArcGIS Pro. The wavy form of the red rectangle symbolizing the burning part of the building gets displayed as a straight line and all the text elements that are arranged around the main symbols by applying an OffsetY are collapsed to the point itself.

Do you have any idea on how to resolve these problems in order to prepare a web map that could be integrated in an app built with Web Appbuilder?

Any help would be highly appreciated, since using these symbols in web apps would be super valuable for us.

Best regards,

Gilles

Hi,

The JSAPI 4.x can only work with feature layers published from ArcGIS Pro which reference a dictionary web style.  The only way to publish military symbols from ArcMap that will render correctly in JSAPI 4.x is as a map image service. If you need to support editing workflows, you can still publish a companion feature service to have in your web map in addition to the map image service, just don't turn the feature layer on in the map.

I hope that helps.

Kerry
