Tile Package Publishing - Scale Issues

JeffDavis7 — Thu, 28 Jun 2018 14:26:15 GMT

Hello,

I created a tile package for my aerial photography that I had automatically uploaded to my AGO account. Unfortunately, I needed to add a couple more LOD to my scale because it stops a little short.

I went back into my project file and modified the scale settings to included 564 and 282 (see Scale Settings attachment).

I then went through the tile package creation scenario and when checking the Tile Format section it still only reads a scale down to 1128 (see Tile Format attachment).

Any suggestions?

Hi Jeff,

A default ArcGIS Online basemap has a set limitation; it is not possible to zoom in further than the scale of 1:1128. To zoom in further than the default scale range, a tiled map service package with a custom scale range can be created in ArcMap, published to ArcGIS Online, and used as a basemap.

You can follow the direction on this link: How To: Set a custom scale range for a tile service in ArcGIS Online (do not forget the cache size limitation)

And another post you can rely on:https://community.esri.com/thread/88220

I hope it helps...

Charlotte

Hi Charlotte,

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my inquiry and provide such great links for assistance.

I am in the "Manage Tile Cache" portion of the first link. I will update this posting once it finishes its run.

It seems to be taking quite a long time and consuming a large amount of space. I hope that's normal. As an FYI...I ended up adding two additional levels of detail at 564 and 282.

Thanks again.

Jeff
