We are excited to share a bunch of Urban release highlights with you!
Urban on Enterprise 11.4
ArcGIS Urban for Enterprise 11.4 was released on November 7th, 2024. Urban for Enterprise 11.4 is equivalent to the June 2024 release of Urban on ArcGIS Online.
Are you curious about what's new in Urban for Enterprise 11.4? Check out the What's New blog post.
Urban on ArcGIS Online December 2024
We released a new version of Urban on ArcGIS Online on December 4th. The highlight of the latest Urban release is the new metrics feature. It takes analysis of your plans to the next level.
Check out our blog post for a detailed walkthrough of the new metrics experience.
If you were already working with metrics in Urban before the December 2024 release, I'd recommend checking out our blog post about converting your previously configured metrics to the new metrics.
Last but not least, check out our What's New blog post and video to learn about this release's other highlights.

With Urban's December 2024 release, it's now also possible to input exact dimensions when editing previously created polygons.
Additionally, points and polygon vertices can now be placed at specific coordinates when creating new geometries and editing existing ones.

Urban's December 2024 release introduced new metrics.
The new metrics introduce new operators and allow you to base the metric calculation on building measurements (such as the height or number of floors of proposed buildings) as well as on parcel measurements (such as the parcel area or the parcel coverage).
To learn more, I'd recommend the following resources:
- What's New blog post
- A detailed walkthrough on the new metrics experience
- How to convert your metrics to Urban's new metrics
- New metrics in Urban's product documentation

HI @JustinsChang , Thanks for your question. Currently, Urban only allows you to batch-load Tier 1 setback data. To batch-load setback data beyond Tier 1, we recommend writing a script using the Urban-API. For this, the following resources might be of interest to you: The ArcGIS Urban API documentation page Example for reading and writing data via the Urban API API reference to directly execute Urban API GraphQL queries queries and mutations If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks, Dominik

We released a new version of ArcGIS Urban on June 26th, 2024. With this release, you can design the spaces between buildings, configure elevation layers per plan scenario and sketch surfaces, boundaries, and study areas with precision using tooltips and exact measurements. Check out our What's New blog post or the release video for a high-level summary and the release notes for a deep dive into Urban's newest features. Have fun exploring this new version of Urban. If you have any feedback or questions, please don't hesitate to contact us. Sincerely, The ArcGIS Urban team

@BrunoSeiler , with the June 2024 update of ArcGIS Urban, you can now input exact dimensions for polygon edge length and deflection when creating new features. In the near future, you'll also be able to input exact dimensions when editing previously created polygons.

With the latest June 2024 release, it's now possible to configure scenario-specific elevation layers not only for projects but also for plans. For projects: Add the elevation layer to a web scene. Configure that web scene as project scenario context. See the Urban documentation about configuring project scenarios to learn more. For plans (new with Urban's June 2024 release): Open the plan scenario settings. Configure a scenario elevation layer for any of the plan's scenarios. See the Configure scenario settings section in the Urban product documentation.

Hi @KoSUSMag , Thanks for reaching out. I moved your question from the "ArcGIS Urban Ideas" place over here to the "ArcGIS Urban Questions" place. To provide an answer as specific as possible to the challenge you're trying to solve, would you mind providing a few more details, such as: - What software tools do you have available? E.g. Esri's Map Viewer? - What data are available for EV adoption / all car & land use? - Depending on the above question: do you anticipate any data cleaning work, or are you just trying to visualize as-is datasets w/o manipulating them first? Thanks, Dominik

Hi @BillFox , Correct, Urban will be available on Enterprise with 11.3. Please keep in mind that the technical limitations you mentioned in your initial comment regarding local coordinate systems will be the same on Enterprise 11.3 as on the ArcGIS Online version of Urban.

Hi @BillFox , There is no difference between Urban on ArcGIS Online and Urban on Enterprise regarding on-the-fly reprojections between global and (projected) coordinate systems, web scenes, and urban models. This is an overall platform limitation. There definitely exist workarounds, like publishing your own 3D base layers, base map, or elevation layer. For a more profound analysis of your use case, including possible workarounds, I'm happy to connect you with one of our urban planning consultants. Just send me a direct message if that would be of interest to you. If you'd like to give the need for on-the-fly reprojections more weight, please feel free to submit an Idea on either the ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise Place, here in the Esri Community. If you have additional questions, please feel free to reach out.

Hi @BillFox , Thanks for your question. Some functionality is unavailable in local Urban Models because Esri's 3D web platform only supports on-the-fly projection between coordinate systems for non-cached layers (e.g., hosted feature layers). The 3D base layers, the default basemaps, the default elevation layer, and the Living Atlas indicators are provisioned as cached layers in either the Web Mercator or the WGS84 coordinate system. They can only be displayed in global scenes. The street-level imagery feature builds upon the Mapillary platform, which only supports WGS84 coordinate systems. All of the above data items display well in global scenes and urban models, regardless of whether the data is in the Web Mercator or WGS84 coordinate system. However, these items don't work in local scenes and urban models. This is an overall limitation of Esri's web 3D platform, and I'm unaware of any plans to change this behavior. If you have follow-up questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Urban's February 2024 update allows editing the study area of plans and projects. See the corresponding docs pages for details: For plans: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/urban/help/help-edit-plan-study-area.htm For projects: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/urban/help/help-edit-project.htm#ESRI_SECTION1_CA378ED741F746F3AACE325FE7F6DD14 Additionally, Urban now also allows you to import the study area from a hosted feature layer when creating a plan or project.

Hi @BillFox , Thank you very much for reaching out and informing us that you were experiencing issues with displaying the Living Atlas Indicators in Urban. I quickly checked myself and couldn't reproduce the issues you reported. Are you still experiencing them today? ArcGIS Online (which provides the Indicator data) and Urban released a new version yesterday. It might well be that the issues you experienced were caused by some hick-ups during the release process. If you have further questions, please reach out.

@MelanieNeedle support for better distinguishing undevelopable vs. developable areas might be added to Urban in the longer term. For now, I'd recommend two things: 1) Use the existing tools provided by Esri's product portfolio in general and ArcGIS Urban in particular to build a workflow that helps you solve the task. Please let me know if you and your organization would need support with this. We could connect you with a subject matter expert from our Consulting Services team. 2) Feel free to submit an ArcGIS Urban product idea with as many details as possible. This helps us better understand your particular use case, and other users can share their thoughts and upvote your idea if they face similar tasks that need to be accomplished.
