Hi

When I try to add a url to a large KML file from the web, I get "The KML, http://urbanforestmap.org/search/kml/, cannot be added to the map. It is bigger than the maximum allowed size of 10MB."

How can I restrict the geographic region of the KML to my ArcGis map's region?

Alternatively, is there a way to bypass the 10MB limit by loading the external kml dynamically, as needed, from the external source, instead of storing it in arcgis?

Thanks!

There is nothing ArcGIS.com can do for you. The file is just too big. You would have to figure out a way to make your KML file smaller.

Thanks,

Mike
