I found your MMPK online, the older one of 14 April, and I can confirm that the map projection was in the NAD 1983 UTM Zone 13N projection and the TPK in WGS 1984 Web Mercator. So that is why it was not loading once downloaded.  Once you correct this, it should work in your app.    But this is a very large file at 435 MB and it will take a long time for people to download, particularly on a mobile device in an area with poor internet. Perhaps consider reducing the size of your TPK by limiting the maximum level of detail on the maximum level. ... View more

So if you want to share your MMPK with the public, then you need the Publisher extension. If you have the Publisher extension, then when you are in Pro you will be provided with the option to "Enable Anonymous Use", which you must take. If you don't see that option then you don't have the extension. If that is the case then users will need to sign into the app with a named user account. Another reason your MMPK may not be showing is because your TPK is in a different projection to that of your feature layers and map. It is best to use the WGS 1984 Web Mercator projection for map and TPK to avoid any incompatibility issues. You can use other projections if need be but the map and TPK need to be in same projection, but I have occasionally seen problems arise with custom projections. The workflow you described is normal in that people first need to download the map before going into an area without coverage. But once it is offline, they wont have to do so again.  Do check out the TPK projection and Publisher extension, but if that is not the cause, do check out the Map Viewer template. As of AppStudio Version 5, you can now also edit features in this app.  ... View more

I feel your pain, been there myself (still am there I think). I know more about MMPKs than AppStudio. I have used the Map  Viewer template a few times. I had a quick look at Quick Report template and it functions very similarly.  Have you created a MMPK with your TPK as basemap and created it with the Publisher extension? If so, then upload this separately from your app to AGOL and then share with public (if that is what you need).  Once that is done, copy the item ID for your MMPK from AGOL and paste that into the Quick Report Properties > Form tab > Item ID for Mobile Map Package space holder.  You dont need to include it with your app when you upload your app, it is a separate process.  Then when you click on Go OFFLINE, then the app will automatically download the MMPK from AGOL based on the item ID you provided. You should see an indicator turning as you wait for teh download. I quickly tested this and it works as expected.  Why is your app so large? It should be a small upload. How have you tried to include the MMPK in the Quick Report template? ... View more

I dont know what is happening with your app and I hope someone else can offer some wisdom.  The problem seems to be with your "GO OFFLINE" button and code.  If you are already including an offline TPK in your MMPK with your app (it is large at 435 MB so I presume you you have a detailed TPK included with app), why have an option to take map offline when you can just do so from the start?  Just follow the instructions (code) from the Open Mobile Map (mmpk) sample app and place your MMPK in the app's Data folder. This would possibly simplify your process but note that I really know very little about your app so my suggestions may be way off.    ... View more

Hi Garret I would definitely recommend that you convert your raster to a tile package to avoid the licensing headaches.  I had to do so some time back.   When you sign in with a named user account, like into Survey123, a named user account does serve as the equivalent to a standard runtime license (unlocking more benefits, such as editing - and rasters it seems). Do check out the below links for more info on licensing.  https://enterprise.arcgis.com/en/portal/latest/administer/windows/licensing-arcgis-runtime-through-portal.htm#:~:text=There%20are%20four%20ArcGIS%20Runtime,with%20a%20set%20of%20capabilities.&text=The%20ArcGIS%20Runtime%20add%2Don,or%20ArcGIS%20Runtime%20Standard%20level. https://developers.arcgis.com/net/license-and-deployment/license/ https://developers.arcgis.com/net/license-and-deployment/license/   Cheers Mervyn ...

I noticed your MMPK has an image in it. Is this a tile package or raster? If a raster, there are additional license requirements (not sure if you are aware of it). ... View more

If you want the original DEM values between 1000 and 1255, why do you want to add 1000?  I will share with you the workflow I would follow to achieve this (but without adding the 1000). I like using Raster Functions as I can test the settings and I don't have to save the final output to disk. From Imagery tab, open up Raster Functions and search for Calculator.  Add you DEM as the Raster Variable and assign a character to it (like x in my below image).  Under Expression, Type in Con and hit enter to enter your conditional statement. Then you can type Con((x>=1000)&(x<=1255) , x , 0 ). I was not sure whether your highest pint is 1255 or you only wanted to display that range. Then under the General tab, change the Output Pixel Type to values to 16 Bit Unsigned, then hit the Create new layer at bottom of pane. As Jayanta pointed out, your DEM is unlikely to be a 8 Bit Unsigned type as the values are greater than 255. I also noted from your image that it has 3 bands. Are you displaying the properties for the DEM you want to work with?  Similarly, the output of the Raster Function cant be a 8 But but rather a 16 Bit type to show values greater than 255.  If you want to add 1000 to teh DEM values then you modify the Con statement to something like: Con((x>=1000)&(x<=1255) , x+1000 , 0 )   ...

One option would be to create a new raster with the required/desired range of min and max values using the Create random raster GP tool.  But use the GP tool listed under Data Management toolset  and not  Spatial Analyst tool as the former lets you specify minimum and maximum values. Then symbolize it and save as lyrx file. Then from your thermal infrared raster images, import the symbology from your new lyrx file you just created.   It should give you your desired symbology.  ... View more

The .shp.xml file is found with all shapefiles that Ersi software works with.  See image. Unfortunately I do not know where the equivalent is stored in a geodatabase.  Hopefully someone from Esri can advise.  I was hoping one may be able remove the default symbology from Catalog but that does not appear to be the case.      ...

HI Joe Esri seem to have made some serious changes to its symbology in version 2.7. I have witnessed what you describe several times now and Pro seems to embed the last used symbology as the default symbology with each feature class or shapefile.  So when you add a layer to a new project, the last use symbology is automatically applied by default.  I noticed that the .shp.xml file now includes this default symbology, and if you delete it, then the shapefile will load without the last used symbology.  I usually find the new behaviour to be favovourible in most instances yet there has been the odd occasion where it was undesirable.  It would be nice if this was one of the Options that a user can choose to activate or not.

I don't think I made myself clear, sorry about that. You can still add your TPK files to your SD card (and I have a 1.3 GB tpk available to me as a basemap on my SD card), you just need to access the correct folder  with a  little more effort.  So browse to the following folder on your SD card, and then copy your basemap into this folder. "SD Card\Android\data\com.esri.fieldmaps\files\basemaps".  The unfortunate part of this workflow is that each app (i.e. ArcGIS Collector, ArcGIS Field Map, etc), will require their own basemaps and the apps can't share a common basemap.  ...

Dear Sveinung I can only reply to the question about basemaps as I have done in Field Maps. The latest releases of Android make it more difficult for Esri to utilise folders outside of those created when the app is installed so you now need to place your basemaps in "Galaxy A70\Card\Android\data\com.esri.fieldmaps\files\basemaps" (in may case but it should not be different to yours).

The easiest approach may be to first open up the CSV in Excel and then combine the two fields into one field using a formula such as "=TEXT(C2,"yyyy/m/dd ")&TEXT(D2,"hh:mm:ss")". But then once you add the CSV file to Pro, your new field will be recognised as a text field and not a date field, so then you need to run the Convert Time Field GP tool to convert it to a date field.  ...
