ArcPad 10.2.1 Hosted Feature Service

[MattAyer]

I see in the help that incremental downloads do not work for Hosted Feature Services.  Does this mean that Full Downloads of the layer do work?  I have tested and am successful in uploading data from different units, but no records get downloaded.  I can upload records from Device A and Device B, but none of the records from A make it to B or vice versus.

Thanks,

I am thinking that the Feature Service extent may be getting messed up when publishing it to ArcGIS online.  This could be a combination of projection(NB DoubleStereo) and ArcGIS online, and the ArcPad functionality that only syncs data that is in a Feature service extent. 

Steps I followed.

1) Created an ArcMap project with two layers displayed to the extent of New Brunswick(Canada).
2) The mxd and source data was in NB dblstereographic
3) Shared the mxd as a service from ArcMap to ArcGIS online.  (Turned of Tiled Map and turned on Feature Service)
4) Created an AXF from the mxd for the two layers to the datafram extent of the mxd
5) Created a feature service layer from the ArcGIS Hosted service
6) Ran the ArcPad Sync AXF/ URL tool
7) Can always edit and upload data from ArcPad to ArcGIS online from any part of New Brunswick.
😎 Edits in ArcGIS online are only recognized and synced for a certain area of New Brunswick.
So this leads me to believe that the feature service extent is getting altered.  How can I edit it? Or maybe it ins't possible to use NB Doublestereographic as a projection.

Hello,

When using features services, ArcPad is only able to download features that are located within the INITIAL EXTENT of the feature service.

You can inspect this extent by accessing your feature service using a web-browser.

Hope this helps,

Hannah 🙂

It looks like there is a bug, when using projections other than WGS 84.  I am using "NAD_1983_CSRS_New_Brunswick_Stereographic".

• I zoom to the extent that I want the feature service to cover.  Save my MXD, and publish as a feature service.


• Create my AXF file and link to this Feature Service using the steps outline in help


• I can create and upload data anywhere within the extent of the AXF file created


• Data is downloaded only for a portion of the extent. 

If I use WGS84, and the same steps I can upload/download data correctly everywhere within the extent of my project. 

Is this a known bug/issue?  Will this be looked at, or are there any work arounds?  I have to use "NAD_1983_CSRS_New_Brunswick_Stereographic", as we have a large library of raster data(100's of GB) that users can copy to their devices as base data.

Thanks,
