Timestamp location data

Anonymous User

Is it possible to time-stamp the location data? Currently when I bring the location file within ArcGIS Online to a separate map to view it shows as user was at this location '17 hours ago'. Python configurable to show actual date and or time?

Thanks Craig! I am not getting that. In the Configure Popup dialog, when I select one of those date fields, there is a droplist of date formats, but it is only selectable not editable. There is a Show Time checkbox but it is greyed out.

I created a new empty project and the location tracking layer in that one is not locked and the Show Time settings are available.

When I look at the attribute table of the original location tracking feature layer, the fields show the lock icon. The new location table is not locked. Would that be the cause? If so, under what conditions does the location tracking layer get locked?

Hi Kevin,

You should be able to edit the pop-up configuration for the CreationDate and EditDate fields. In the Configure pop-up dialog, when you select either field; you should be able to change the Date format to something like mm/dd/yyyy which will enable the "ShowTime" checkbox.

Let me know if you run into issues with this.

I was also looking for timestamp data. I see in the Item Details/Data page for the location tracking feature layer, the CreationDate and EditDate fields are datetime, but when you load the layer into a web map, it only shows the date component in the attribute table and popups. You cannot change this in the popup configuration. It seems counterproductive to have location tracking in 10s to 15m intervals and only the date portion is displayed. I note that if you enable time animation, it respects the time values.

Hi Anthony,

The location data does contain a date/time stamp; but those fields are not visible by default. You can change the pop-up configuration for the layer and enable the date/time fields to display.
