Hi there,
I am using a WMS to publish air temperature maps on ArcGIS online web map viewer (which I plan to share outside my organisation). The WMS is dynamic and produces updated air temperature maps (GeoTIFFs) every hour ranging from the current hour to 6 previous hours. For example, the WMS looks like this at the current date/time of 10am (Sept 2019):
GeoServer Web Map Service
TempPredictions2019090410
TempPredictions2019090409
TempPredictions2019090408
TempPredictions2019090407
TempPredictions2019090406
TempPredictions2019090405
In this form the WMS can easily be added to the map viewer, however, when the WMS is updated on the hour on the WMS server with a new temperature prediction map, say at 11am, e.g:
GeoServer Web Map Service
TempPredictions2019090411
TempPredictions2019090410
TempPredictions2019090409
TempPredictions2019090408
TempPredictions2019090407
TempPredictions2019090406
AGOL is unable to recognize the update and simply retains the initial structure, thus not linking to the latest air temperature map (and the entire WMS eventually becomes redundant in AGOL).
Is there a method to update the structure of the WMS in AGOL so that it dynamically updates without having to manually do it? I have tried the 'Refresh Interval' option but this doesn't seem to work. Perhaps the 'WMS OGC Option' could be the way to go, but I'm unsure of the inputs parameters to initiate this.
Any help appreciated...
Cheers, Mat
Hi Mattew,
We have the exact same challenge with one of our clients. Did you ever find a solution to this issue?
