Hi Urban people, I’m trying to figure out a way to use other ArcGIS products to add information to the Urban plan. Does anyone have any tips and tricks for that?
So what I’ve found so far by opening the plan in PRO, is that the spaces polygon layer holds the geometry and the space information.
Multiple floors in a building needs multiple polygons
So I would guess that the FloorNumber is an array of each floor, so that floorNumber 1 reads the height of the floors number 0 and translate that Floor number in 3D.
But that don’t seem to be true, it seems like Urban translate the polygon automatically on copying a floor, while drawing a polygon in a 2D space from another application, will make all the floors to be in the same place.
This test case is to figure out if I for example could receive information from a Survey123 and transform that information into an ArcGIS Urban 3D model.
What do you think, is that possible?
Ha, I can see that I need to read about the Urban API.
Thank you for your question! The short answer is that adding spaces in ArcGIS Pro is currently not supported. If you would like to add spaces in an external tool, please have a look at the ArcGIS Urban API.
The long answer:
Besides that, I am interested in the background of your question and why you would like to connect ArcGIS Urban to a Survey123 (you can also reach out to me directly).
Let me know if you still have questions.
Thanks,
Till
