A comprehensive article comparing two popular platforms, thought it might be valuable for this group. 🙂 https://gisgeography.com/arcgis-pro-vs-qgis-3/

Happy new year, Minnesota GIS community! Here are a few of my 2024 goals: Make it back to the Esri User Conference after a five-year hiatus Replace our remaining classic story maps and Web AppBuilders with Experience Builder Move our VertiGIS apps to the latest version of the software Keep our documentation up to date That last one sounds boring, and it is. But I did a lot of work in the second half of 2023 to get everything updated, and I want to keep it updated for as long as possible. The fun side of GIS only stays fun if the boring side keeps up. 😎🤓 And of course I'm also looking forward to another awesome year volunteering for the Consortium!

I haven't used this in real life yet, but one of my interns showed me how to use ChatGPT to help document a Python script. I think the cool thing here is that you can either use it to write up a description of a script you wrote yourself OR to understand a script you found on Stack Overflow or elsewhere that you can't 100% read yourself. Here's the sample Python script. import arcpy nbhds = "full path to neighborhoods feature calss" parcels = "full path to parcels feature class" arcpy.conversion.ExportFeatures(parcels,r"memory\Parcels") arcpy.management.JoinField(r"memory\Parcels", "Neighborhood", nbhds, "Neighborhood", "Total_Population") arcpy.management.JoinField(r"memory\Parcels", "Neighborhood", nbhds, "Neighborhood", "Total_Households") And here's what ChatGPT answered. Prompt: Tell me what this Python script is doing and then pasted the script. The provided code snippet is written in Python using the arcpy module, which is a Python library for working with ArcGIS software. The code performs the following tasks: 1. It imports the arcpy module. 2. It assigns the path of a feature class named "Neighborhoods" in a geodatabase to the variable "nbhds". 3. It assigns the path of a feature class named "Parcels" in a geodatabase to the variable "parcels". 4. It exports the features from the "Parcels" feature class to a temporary feature class named "memory\Parcels". 5. It joins the "Total_Population" field from the "Neighborhoods" feature class to the "memory\Parcels" feature class based on the "Neighborhood" field. 6. It joins the "Total_Households" field from the "Neighborhoods" feature class to the "memory\Parcels" feature class based on the "Neighborhood" field.

Hi everyone, very excited about this new community forum! I got my start as a GIS Intern back in 2009 in the insurance space and moved into local government in 2012. I'm currently the GIS and Data Analysis Coordinator at the City of Brooklyn Park. My favorite GIS toys tools are Python, Arcade, StoryMaps, and Survey123. Here are a couple of links for more about me and our public map gallery, looking forward to hearing from others! https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnnerge https://www.brooklynpark.org/city-maps

The Map Journal template is great because you can set up main stage actions to make it easy to interact with web maps, but it doesn't include a search bar. The Map Series template is great because it can include a search bar, but you can't add main stage actions to you text descriptions. The best of both worlds would be if you could have main stage actions AND a search bar in both templates!

Esri Support found a solution. You can publish the basic viewer app and embed it instead of the web map. Here's a sample from our city website. Originally we embedded the web map using this iframe code: <iframe width="640" height="480" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://brooklynpark.maps.arcgis.com/home/webmap/templates/OnePane/basicviewer/embed.html?webmap=c20537c2a7694cbdaa7b4d5fa972b8c4&gcsextent=-93.393,45.0605,-93.2248,45.1575&displayslider=true&displayscalebar=true&displaylegend=true&displaysearch=true&searchextent=true"></iframe> Notice how the src piece of the code is already using the basic viewer using the embed.html version. We replaced it with this iframe code, which URL to the published Basic Viewer web app instead: <iframe width="640" height="480" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://brooklynpark.maps.arcgis.com/apps/OnePane/basicviewer/index.html?appid=aa72aa2ab27a41fc9ee9209529d5ef1d"></iframe> The end result is that the embedded map displayed the Legend by default (along with any other configuration we want to do on the basic viewer app). The trick to making it fit nicely in the iframe is to turn off the Title when configuring the app.

Is it possible to have the Legend turned on by default in an embedded web map? I know that the Basic Viewer app, which uses the index.html, has a "leftPanelVisibilty: true" setting; does something like this exist for the embed.html version of the Basic Viewer?
