Has anyone encountered Visualization problem when uploading shp (zip) file on ArcGIS Online? The polygons are all displaced and overlapped with each other!
I am sharing the link with the layer of the displaced polygons,
in case the link doesnt work, the problem seems like that:
Hey Asterios,
Are the polygons in ArcMap in a geodatabase by chance?
Tim
Hey Tim thank you for your response,
no , they are in a shp.
Do you suggest to store them in a FGD and then export the FC from the FGD
to make a zip for ArcGIS Online?
Asterios
You could try that or re-project your shapefile to WGS 1984 Web Mercator (auxiliary sphere) within ArcGIS Desktop before you upload it.
I tried to re-project it but nothing changed,but while I was making again
the same procedure (uploading the zip file) I noticed again that there is
an option before uploading to generalize the features for web display, I
didnt select it this time and the polygons appear with no problem. So, I
guess that was the probelm.
Thank you again,
Asterios
Yes, generalization can help performance, but it will alter your polygons (usually by removing verticies).
