This is probably the most important operation anyone has to do with GIS: calculate the area of something within something else. I can't think of a single day when I don't have to do this. So why is there no reliable method? I am calculating the total area of forest within provinces and districts. I don't use tabulate area because you have to convert the outputs from m2 to something else and it's a pain. I saw the Summarize Within tool in ArcGIS Pro and thought gee that does exactly what I need. All my data are in cylindrical equal area projection. The results I get from using Summarize Within however are greatly different from if I clip my polygon to a province area and add geometry attributes with geodesic area. We are talking large differences here - 20% or more. I have lots of provinces and districts and clipping to each one will take an eternity. How are people supposed to reliably calculate area if the GIS tools provided give completely different results? Is there reliable information as to which tool to use and which is more accurate? I am wondering now how much error there are in all the forest area reporting out there when using different tools seems to create huge differences.

How can I change the language settings on AppStudio for Desktop to English? I find it hard enough to build an app using these tools, but having my whole setup in German, because I happen to be in Germany isn't really helping at all... I can't find any language settings in the desktop app. is there something I am missing? many thanks for your help.

Any updates on this? I‘d like to deploy a Collector map as a stand alone app that people can download directly, without having to install collector, look for my app etc... The quick report template is not exactly what I am looking for...

There is a domain. I can make a menu, but for some reason in this domain, it does not show an option for radio button. The choices are select menu and filter select … It must be something with my domain but I can’t figure it out – it was made the same way as the other domains in my gdb… Von: Jacqueline Kovarik Gesendet: Mittwoch, 18.

I only see select menu and filter select? How can I get the Radio Button option?

I have what I think is a pretty common dataset: forest cover by country for several years. The data is a polygon for each country, with various attributes for forest cover: forest in 2000, forest in 2005 etc.. Why can't I chart these over time? Say I want to click a country in the map and see that forest cover over the different years in a chart? This was so simple and easy in the old operations dashboard but the new version doesn't have that flexibility. So I purchased INSIGHTS but it seems all I can do is take sums and averages of data (which is silly when I only have 1 value per polygon so the sum/avg doesn't do anything). Why can't I add more than 1 series to any of the bar charts? Like you can in the Web App Builder Widgets? It seems weird that those functionalities aren't here. I can make a summary table, which shows what I want, but then no charts are possible? How should I set up my data for this? Do I need to create separate tables/feature datasets for each country?

are public surveys available offline in the Survey123 app without having to log in?

Thanks Katie, We are using Google Workspace for the website - which is easy for non-techies. But yes, I think downloading the template, or limiting the access via arcGIS Server are my only options... thanks again, -a

I tried the workflow to secure access to layers, but the option "a secure service was detected" does not come up! The service is not shared - it's private. So when I add it as a new web service where can I get that option and enter the credentials??

hi there, I have an app that is shared with my organization (we have an institutional account) - I do not want it public because there is sensitive information in it. The app is intended to be embedded in a simple website that is accessed by SSO authentication (the same accounts we use for our institutional AGOL). How can I make the app automatically visible in the website without the user having to log in again? Is there a way to have sort of automatic authentication? I looked into the registered app logins, (Implementing App Login | ArcGIS for Developers) but the options are way over my head... what URL can I put in my iframe to remove the login window and have users automatically log in, either with the same SSO credentials, or one same Viewer account for everyone? I see I have a token and stuff but don't know what to do with it...or do I need to get a developer or web designer or both? thanks for your help!

Yes but the credits are not attributed to a specific user if we have a public facing app? I.e. who to allocate the limit to? **************** Aurélie Shapiro Remote Sensing Specialist WWF Germany [email protected] www.wwf.de/remote-sensing

So is there no way to summarize points within a selected polygon in Web App Building without consuming credits? Seems like a simple task (if you had the patience you could draw a polygon in the map and get a summary). But it would be great if someone could use the select tool to choose, say a country, and then use another tool to summarize points in that layer? Seems so simple that it's not worth spending the credits...we spend enough on storage and accounts I'd rather not give more on credits for easy analysis (especially since you can't trace those credits back to a specific user in our group, so someone needs to suck up the costs - very risky). I guess I will have to spend the time to program it myself in model builder?

has anyone got this to work? I just tried it and the popup is blank...or when I go back the pop-up code, it's gone.

How can I embed an iframe with a scrollbar in an open data site? Using the iframe widget, I can embed a web app, ok find. but what if I want a scrollbar? If I have an iframe code with a scrollbar and other options, i.e. <iframe src="https://voices4mekongforests.wordpress.com/" style="border:0px #ffffff none;" name="myiFrame" scrolling="yes" frameborder="1" marginheight="0px" marginwidth="0px" height="600px" width="600px" allowfullscreen></iframe> How can I embed that in my open data site? When I put it in the text widget it's just blank. what am i missing? thanks!

Thank you Philip! This is actually very helpful because I needed to find out how survey123 is communicating – via browser or something else.
