ArcGIS Online Web AppBuilder provides Near Me and Screening widgets that are very similar. Both search for target features within a buffer distance around a location, and provide the result back as a list as well as show on the map. We like Screening better because it provides some nice features that Near Me does not have, like download the result in various formats, and print as a report. However, Near Me is more user friendly than Screening, where we hope ESRI can help improve. Here are the list of enhancements we propose to implement for Screening widget.
Instead with Near Me, the user will only need to search for a location, and it will perform the rest automatically. One step vs four steps. This will be huge to our end users if we can implement the same in Screening.
Actually Screening and Near Me can be consolidated into one since their core function is the same, search features near a location.
