Automatic exclusiong of overlapping icons

[LadislavJeník]

I have condensed icons in my map. I would need a functionality in ArcGIS Online that would not automatically draw overlapping icons and draw only one at given locations. The solution using different icon layers, on/off levels, etc. does not bring the desired effect. It would require something similar to what works with overlapping texts, but applied to icons (points). I am surprised that such functionality is not standard in ESRI, as it is in other GIS systems. I believe that ESRI will accept my proposal. Thank you.

You could author a scale based display filter in ArcGIS Pro and share that layer/web map to Online. Map Viewer and other apps like instant apps or dashboards will honor that display filter that would use scale based. In your case you could set the where clause for the scale to display the feature you want and as you zoom in further additional where clauses could be applied to show additional features.

@RussRoberts Thank you for the tip. Unfortunately, this solution is not sufficient for our needs. We need to visualize different icons at the same time. Moreover, the density of icons in area is different. There is even a situation where even at the smallest scale the icons overlap, as there are so many of them in a small space.

We currently do not have this available for symbol deconfliction today. Clustering would do some of this but it would show the predominant feature. We also have symbol display order which would at least show the features in the order based of the Types/Unique Value style order.

@RussRoberts 
I understand that you are trying to help me. I appreciate it.
I trust that you will eventually include the icon overlay tool in the functionality.
