Hi Robert! In ArcGIS Pro you will want to choose a different processing template which will turn off the RGB and reveal the values between 0 and 100 percent. In this case, the processing template you want is "None". You want the RAW values here. We on the Living Atlas team recommend content producers give a quick how-to on how to work with their processing templates because they are amazing tools for serving imagery... which nobody knows are even there let alone how to use them in their map clients! Right click the properties in Pro, then at the bottom choose processing templates. The default is TreeCover2000 which strangely, as you pointed out, has a different behavior in ArcGIS Online. Change that to None and you get a gray ramp, apply a green ramp to it if you like and you should be good to go. Now try this in your analysis! Hope it all goes well for you from here on out. -Michael

Yes that worked out didn't it? In addition to starting with new points, ideally, the elevation model would be updated with the new elevation to find the next flow direction. Also, some of the lava is disappearing down a hole, nobody knows if or where it will come out.

Maps have entranced me since I was a very small child. I think this is because maps combine two amazing experiences. At the same time the map viewer experiences finding out something really interesting about his/her world, she/he experiences pleasure from the beautiful colors of the map. It's a similar experience of pleasure to viewing a work of art or looking out over a beautiful landscape. The Vegetation map of the National Atlas of the United States of America, by A. W. Kuchler, is one of these pleasurable landscapes. It is gorgeous, but its colors are also very practical for making many different types of maps. Making a beautiful map is not a superfluous activity. Beauty seizes unsuspecting people and draws them into the experience of something interesting. It keeps the viewer's attention and compels the viewer to explore and see things your way. I'm sure you have experience with something beautiful doing this to you at some point or another! After all, we're only human. Jaynya Richards, ESRI research cartographer, posted in 2012 about this style file and its origin. You can download this style file right here, from the geonet. Use it to enrich your maps with beautiful color. The colors that come with ArcGIS desktop are really just suggestions... Remember, if you have style files that you use that create knockout maps, please share them on this forum. I for one would like to see what you came up with. Thanks for helping the community! -MD Shown here is the ArcGIS Desktop palette with the stock colors (on top) alongside the National Atlas Vegetation Map colors (at the bottom). Notice how the National Atlas Vegetation Map colors have many, many shades of tan, green, yellow, and other colors that are particularly useful in certain types of mapping. All thanks to the National Atlas and A. W. Kuchler for creating these colors.

Hi Wilbev, for the time being I took the soil names out, the rest of the attributes are fine, however. I am going to re-join the soil name to the table and repost, for the time being I took the soil name out of the popup. Thanks for the head's up! Michael Sorry, I meant for this to be under ArcGIS online forum, can someone please move it to there? I wasn't sure where else to post this so I thought I would add it here. I was just checking out a new blog post on a new Soil Hydrology webmap on ArcGIS online. I zoomed into an area in California and I began to look at the soil type names and none of them seem to be correct or accurate. In fact, a quick search of the soil type names show they are from South & North Dakota or Minnesota, definitely not California soil types. Can someone look into why the data looks to be wrong? Not sure how widespread it is. Also, was hoping to find if there is a feature service that available with this data.
