I'm developing a street view imagery app and wants to overlay point feature layers on top of the imagery. While overlaying points is currently possible, the large number of points makes it difficult to identify individual features.

The label functionality is available in the maps but is not supported in Oriented Imagery.

It would be great for Oriented Imagery to include the ability to display labels for vector layer overlays, similar to the functionality available in the maps. This addition will help users easily identify and differentiate between POI features in the street view imagery app.

There are labels in the map, but not Oriented Imagery.

Perhaps, it can be a hover 'pop-up' user experience similar to the one below as well. (In the yellow rectangle).

Another useful feature is for the labels of road segments (line features) as well.

Hi Kntr, 

Thanks for you question. At the moment development on Oriented Imagery Classic is in the deprecating phase as this product will make way for Oriented Imagery Dataset, so all adding of new features has now stopped. We do appreciate your idea and it will be passed on to the Oriented Imagery Dataset development team. 

Thanks, 

Randall

Hi @RandallRebello,

 

Many thanks for your update. I understand Oriented Imagery Classic is due for retirement. I will be looking forward to new functionalities in the Oriented Imagery Dataset! One of the key functions I'm eager to try out is the ability to integrate the new Oriented Imagery Dataset into Experience Builder's Oriented Imagery widget. (As ExB currently only supports the Classic model).

 

Cheers,
Kntr

Thumbs up for the ideas. 

support text annotation have been implemented in applications like Google Street View and Mapillary for many years, the new OrientedImageryViewer widget needs to support it too so it can be a potential alternative to those applications.

To KNTR - this does not answer your request (Randall already explained) but I wanted you to know the Experience Builder widget is now available.

New Experience Builder (ExB) widget for Oriented Imagery is available!

Hi @CodyBenkelman -- Many thanks for the update. It is great news that the new Experience Builder widget is now available. However, the ability to display labels for vector layer overlays is still not available. Hope it will be implemented in the next release or so. Thanks.

Hi @CodyBenkelman,

I can't add labels to the oriented imagery layer in Arc Pro (3.4.2), EGDB 11.1.0.41833.  Am I understanding this thread correctly that this function isn't available?  It's an important function when we go to create figures for reports when a larger number of locations have been collected.

Thanks!

Hi @kntr @AlisonFischer 

The ability to add labels in the Oriented Imagery Viewer is in the development pipeline.  We dont have a timeframe on its availability yet. We will inform you when it is would be available. 

Regards, 

Randall
