What's New in ArcGIS Earth 1.15 (Apr 2022)
The April 2022 release of ArcGIS Earth is here! Download this latest release of ArcGIS Earth on our website, and visit the ArcGIS Earth Resources page for free training materials and tutorials.
This latest release comes with several new features, enhancements, and bug fixes, including support for Vector Tile Layers, KML multi-selection and batch editing, attribute tables, an on-screen navigation controller, and 3D labeling.
What's New
Vector tile layer support - Containing vector representations of data across scales, vector tiles adapt to the resolution of their display device and can be restyled. In ArcGIS Earth, you can add a vector tile layer into My Data folder or Startup layer folder, or set it as the basemap.
Navigator - Once you enable navigation control in the application settings, the navigator appears in the lower right corner of the viewport. The north compass and home button are also integrated into the navigator with more flexible navigation controls.
3D labeling - You can customize the style and visualization of labels on the fly. With the label editing capability, you can set the label position and label style in a 3D global view.
Attribute table - An attribute table displays raw data and allows you to sort, select, and export that data.
KML batch editing - Multiple KML nodes with the same geometry type can now be edited together. You can also batch edit all the layers stored in a folder.
Image display order - A dynamic imagery layer of a mosaic dataset contains a collection of images. When working with these types of imagery layers in ArcGIS Earth, you can modify the image display order and determine how to resolve overlapping areas.
Enhancements
Automation API auto-start setting - The ArcGIS Earth automation API can now be enabled directly through an autostart switch in the application’s advanced settings.
Add Startup layers to My Data - Layer data stored in the Startup layer folder can now be added to the My Data folder with one click from the layer’s context menu.
KML multiselection - You can select multiple KML nodes by pressing Ctrl or Shift while selecting the nodes.
Known Limitation
Feature | Description |
Pop-up | No context menu for images in pop-ups when the local machine is connected to a virtual machine with a different scale and layout. |
Attribute table | Multipart features are not supported for export in the attribute table. |
Authentication | SAML log into portal using certificate returns blank page. A workaround to this is to sign in using web browser. |
