Hi Fawaz, I'm a little late answering your question, I hope in this time you have found something, but perhaps I still have some useful advice to offer. You have chosen a very competitive arena, in particular your locale. I want to say, don't give up. BAH is VERY competitive. I do remember when I lived in the area that there were a lot of job fairs, which will be perfect for you; you have many potential employers in one room and you can quickly see which are looking to hire at your level of experience and move on from those that are not. Bring twice as many copies of your resume as you think you might need and even your (unofficial) transcript to reference courses you have taken that might have given you experience in a particular area. I want to address the Python/scripting language part of your statement. I was where you are not long ago. I hate Python and coding as a whole, I even remember setting my schedule in university to avoid having to take Python and let me tell you in hindsight, it was a mistake. You can get away without knowing for a bit but as you move up in the ranks or, if like my employer, there is only one GIS, you will have no choice but to automate the work, which requires coding. I am now having to learn little bits as I go without the benefit of an instructor, while simultaneously completing all my regular work. I suggest that you look at YouTube videos, search forums like this, and even purchase courses (either through your alma mater or from an online "academy" like https://www.udacity.com/course/introduction-to-python--ud1110. Find a mentor who is familiar and study, study, study! It will never be a waste of time (and remember this is from someone who hates coding too.) Additionally, look for professional organizations where you can find a mentor, and perhaps work. Some great options are ASPRS, URISA, GISCorps, or there is even a GEO DC Meetup group! Most of these organizations will have discounted rates for students or recent grads/young professionals.  I hope this information was beneficial and good luck to you! Ashtan ... View more

   I have been having this issue for a while too. I am creating a new file and my points are on the map but only roughly half are in the attribute table. I can select an area on the map in a way I know selects them all and as long as my attribute table is set to show selected it will show 14 of 7 for instance. I can usually manage with a smaller file but when you get into numbers like you have or if you don't know that there are features missing, its detrimental .    I have searched on GeoNet before too but have yet to find an answer. It doesn't seem to matter if I am using a shapefile or file geodatabase and it has happened on file that I have received not just the ones I created. Sorry, none of this is really helpful to you but hopefully additional information will help someone provide a solution of something we haven't tried. ... View more

I am having a similar issue except it doesn't tell me there are any errors. It shows up in the content tab but you cant see anything on the map or "zoom to". ... View more

I haven't used the beta so it might seem like a dumb question but when you say reports, do you mean the dashboard or actual pdf/printable report? ... View more

I am interested in the last image. Is that a setting to showing multiple locations for tracking purposes or is it a lag on the real time feed? Seems like a great concept for the ATCT but it is very busy, which could cause problems.   ... View more

I agree with Dan you can look at the histograms and that might be all you need but if you wanted to calculate the frequencies you could also use the statistics drop down and run some analysis. If you created a new field you could sort by/create additional maps with this new information. ... View more
