Hello, I've posted something like this a few years ago and got no responses, so I guess I'll just keep posting until someone from ESRI replies... Can we make maps for the Arctic/North pole region that are shaped conically as can be done in software such as Matlab (I don't use, but have seen output) or Ocean Data View? I've tried using the same projection (orthographic) and settings that produces this effect in Ocean Data View, but it's still just a rectangle...🤔 It's frustrating not to produce maps in ArcGIS that are similar in nature to oceanography colleagues...🙁 Thanks...   ...

Hello, A grad student has asked me a question about extracting trend parameters for a time series of data using ordinary kriging ArcGIS tools. I'm not an expert in the spatial statistics options of ArcGIS, so I'm hoping to find some advice here. Currently the student has decided to stick with R due to frustration with not being able to figure out the same process in ArcGIS, but it would still be helpful to know if it's even possible in ArcGIS. They say: "We are having trouble figuring out how to extract the trend parameters, more specifically the equation of the line that was used to remove the trend from the data, to which the kriging model is fitting. The equation is essential when I present my thesis so that I can say with confidence why I chose one model over the other. We know there is a goodness of fit parameter, but we want to have a better indication of the best model to choose rather than just the goodness of fit. We know that we can extract out the trend parameters in R, but we have not been able to figure it out in ArcGIS. Do you happen to know how to extract the trend parameters from the Geostatistical Analyst tool?"   Thanks, Alynne     ... View more

Hello, (sorry if I'm posting this twice. I think I accidentally posted in the ArcGIS online site for help...) Is is possible to achieve the look of the maps in the example attached in ArcMap? I know this is possible in Matlab and Ocean Data View, but can't seem to figure it out for ArcGIS (for working in the Arctic region).   Thanks,   Alynne ... View more

Hello All, I need to export high resolution EPS and/or AI files from ArcMap (300 to 600 dpi).  Unfortunately I'm finding that there are straight lines appearing in what may be more complex vector sections of the map when I look at the files in Illustrator (see screen shot). These lines don't appear when I export as a PNG either directly from ArcMap or after exporting the EPS/AI file (with the lines) to a PNG from Illustrator. The screen shot shows a section of the Alaskan coast that is a more complex line than the ESRI boundaries, for example.  Though these lines don't appear when I export to EPS/AI using the ESRI boundaries, I would prefer to use the more complex version. Any advice on the steps/options/format I need to make this possible would be appreciated! Thanks! ... View more
