Thank you Xiaolong, I will take a look. It is always good to learn more about visualization and different ways to handle important data to get the most out of the story you are trying to tell.  Update, I did this and added to the map and it really helps a great deal! Thanks again.  ... View more

Aaron, that is perfect! Thanks for the help. I am a bit new at this so the change threw me Love the dashboards and can't wait for upgrades to the platform.  ... View more

Aaron, Thanks for the reply. Yes, that shows me Dashboards that have already been created. However, I used to be able to create them from a layer created with the Desktop Dashboard application. I would create the Dashboard, Save it and then from the save I would have 3 options, Open in Windows App, Create Dashboard (Beta), and Share. Now I don't have the ability to create a Web Dashboard from the Desktop created file.  So it used to look like this. and now it looks like this So what do I need to do to be able to create a dashboard for web use? ...

In the end, I was able to get something I could use by employing the Analysis>Analyze Patterns>Find Hot Spots tool vs the 2 layers. This allowed me to only show the points within the boundary of the World Countries layer I had added to the map. I tried several visualizations and liked this one the best of them all.   ...

Jayanta, Thanks for taking the time to respond. My problem is that I don't have ArcGIS for Desktop and didn't want to install it unless there was no other way to do this. It seems though that I may be forced to if there is no way to do it in AGOL on it's own. ... View more

Adam, I get the gist of a lot of what you are saying. We run into a similar problem with tracking transceivers when one is changed or a new one is added to the system. It's going to take me a while to digest this and I will need to talk to my provider on this as well because they are more on the technical side.  I appreciate you posting this as it will help quite a bit. I will surely get back in touch with you if I can't figure it out! Thanks again for your time on this and the help you have provided! Have a Great Holiday Weekend. James ... View more

Adam, Thanks for responding.  The feed is showing as a FeatureServer layer? It's an Iridium feed being fed into our service provider that I can pull in to a web map. I'm still a bit new at this so not sure if that answers your question or not.  I am doing everything via AGOL and maybe that is limiting what I can do to a point, not sure. I like your multiple icons by status by the way. I need to learn how to do that.  I added the layer by searching for it. It is part of our current list of layers being provided to us for our Aircraft Positions. So it resides on their server.  Ok so here is the odd part of this which I discovered with some help after I posted the first message. I can take the file that was created when I used the Desktop Ops Dashboard and use the Create Dashboard (Beta) button from the information page I get exactly what I need and the icons again rotate with Heading.  It creates another file which opens to the web dashboard. A bit hard to see but the icons are rotated correctly.  So at this point, I think I have solved my issue however it appears that if I want more configuration options I need to look into getting ArcGIS Desktop and start from there? ...
