Hi - I attempted to run an object classification on 3" resolution, 4 band imagery of about a mile square area of a river channel.  Looking to identify Arundo (an invasive bamboo species), Water, Bare Earth, Palm Trees, Other Trees, Grass/Vines (low vegetation).  I got some very un-expected results, the output was a polygon layer arranged in a grid pattern of equal size rectangles (see attached screen shot of output).  My process was: 0) Image Prep Mosaiced geo tifs together using 'Mosaic to New Raster' 'Extract by Mask' to the study area 1) Label Objects for Deep Learning Tool (approx 300 samples of each class) 2) Export Training Data for Deep Learning Tool Meta Data type - Labeled Tiles 3) Train Deep Learning Model Tool - use all defaults for parameters Max epochs - 20 (default) Model Type - Feature Classifier (default) 4) Classify Objects using deep learning Tool  Any ideas why I'm getting this grid pattern output?  I expected detailed boundaries with curves around different classes.  It also took several days to run the classification (way too long I think) -- it classified areas that I had masked off with Extract By Mask, which maybe added confusion.  I'm primarily interested in the boundaries of the Arundo.  I tried an Object extraction, but that didn't provide boundaries of the Arundo either, just squares.  Also attached is my model metrics, which I thought looked pretty good Any thoughts would be much appreciated Thanks   Pete   ...

Hi - I have about 30 file geodatabases each with three layers.  Each of the geodatabases will use the same meta data.  I'm using the basic ESRI meta data format -- Summary, Description, Credits.  I have the meta data I want for each of the layers in a word doc. Is there anyway to import the meta data into the feature classes without copying and pasting each separately within edit meta data tool in catalog?    Thanks   Pete ... View more

Hi - I've got a Field Map with a form tied to a feature service layer.  I want to make the feature service layer editable for all users.   I've enabled public data collection and shared the feature service layer with everyone.  I've also shared the Field Map with everyone.  Is there some other setting I need to configure to enable users other than the owner to make edits to the feature service layer?  As it stands now only the owner of the feature service layer can make edits   Thanks   Pete ...

Hi - I am joining a feature class with a table in model builder and then trying to export the result to a new feature class.  When I hard-code the layer and table names it works fine. I get complete geometry as well as all of the fields in the attribute table as expected.  When I try to use a variable as part of  the layer and table names, however, the resulting feature class has the correct geometry, but contains only Shape, Shape_Length, and Shape_Area fields. Any idea what could be going wrong?   My variable is named AgencyName and is also set as a parameter.  I refer to the variable value in my join tool like this: %AgencyName%. Both the input table and the join table are in a fileGDB and are referred to using the complete path  (P:\projects\xxx\OrangeParse.gdb\MSA_%AgencyName%).  I've confirmed the value of my variable name is correct. Any ideas what could be happening here?  Attached is a screen shot of the model   Thanks Pete ... View more
