Hi Brandon, I understand and can relate.   You have to have Enterprise in order to publish the fabric.    This is because we need to establish an identity. An identity establishes who you are (same as a login into an Enterprise Geodatabase), What you can do (View, edit, analyze, create, share), what apps you have permission to (Field Apps, Dashboards, Storymaps) and additional capabilities such as editing a parcel fabric (Parcel Fabric user type extension). This does not have to be on separate machines, although it is recommended for performance purposes.  I run Enterprise on my Laptop.  That includes the web adaptors, Portal, Data Stores, and ArcGIS Server.   I also have SQLServer running on my laptop.   I'm not a production shop, but I have multiple fabrics published, one with over 1 million parcels.   As I stated above, we plan to release the parcel fabric on ArcGIS Online.  For your given scenario of about 2K parcels, this may be a good solution.    I know if does not help you now, but hopefully by this time next year.   Dan Stone ArcGIS Parcel Fabric Product Manager ...

Hi Brandon, The latest evolution of the parcel fabric provides a comprehensive framework for managing, editing, and sharing parcel data in both a multiuser (ArcGIS Enterprise) and single-user environment. You are correct, in a multi-editor environment you must publish the parcel fabric as a feature service through ArcGIS Enterprise. Why did we do this? Several reasons. In previous versions of the Parcel Fabric, if you wanted to share your land records data you had to export it in order to publish and make available to public facing web applications and apps, like dashboards. Having the parcel fabric as a service gives us the ability to feed these applications without the ETL processes of exporting and publishing. The data is always live to feed these apps and support additional devices like tablets, smart phones, and web applications. Since the ArcGIS Parcel Fabric is a web service, it now has the ability to integrate with other applications through a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). This makes integration with third party systems, like recording, valuation , lease management software much easier. The capability exists for these system to create records, or merge parcels by calling the REST API. Using a feature service, also allows us to take advantage of Branch versioning. Branch versioning allows us to take traditional editing workflows and push them into a web services environment. Esri has placed a large focus on reengineering ArcGIS to be a service-based platform to support the web approach. I don't think it is a secret that on the ArcGIS Parcel Fabric Roadmap is the ability to support the ArcGIS Parcel Fabric within ArcGIS Online. There are capabilities that ArcGIS Online does not currently support that will limit initial releases, so it may not be a fit for all organizations, and ArcGIS Enterprise will still be the preferred platform. I appreciate your feedback and understand change is sometimes difficult. Hope this helps Dan Stone ArcGIS Parcel Fabric Product Manager ... View more

Hi Jason,  I was able to successfully clip a donut hole out of a larger parcel.   I created a record Added a "Connection Line" from the corner of the outer boundary to the corner of the new parcel.  Selected clip Took remainder and was successful I was using 3.1.1 to perform this edit.         ...

Hi Matt,  Not sure about the logic in your 1st version.   I'd have to test it.  In your 2nd version, if it is a seed, the logic immediately exits and returns seed.  It should never execute the other else if statements.  I don't have your data to try, but this logic should work as well:   If  ($feature.IsSeed!=1) {      if ($feature.ERROR_ACRES > ( $feature.StatedArea * 0.1)) ||  ($feature.ERROR_ACRES < ( $feature.StatedArea * -0.1))      {            return "Check acreage error";      }     else  if ($feature.ERROR_ACRES < ( $feature.StatedArea * 0.1)) ||  ($feature.ERROR_ACRES > ( $feature.StatedArea * -0.1))     {            return "Parcel";     }   else{      return "Seed";    }   ...

Good day.   Could you help me to understand your request?  With the traverse tool you pick which layer receives the COGO lines (See screen snapshot below) .  How are you entering the different line layers?   ... View more

Good day Nathan,   There is no cost for the parcel fabric user type extension.   Beginning with ArcGIS 10.4, all ArcGIS Desktop Licenses include a license to add a Named User (Creator user type license) to ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise for all ArcGIS Desktop licenses on maintenance or for current term license subscriptions.  The creator user type, when licensed to your enterprise, will include the Parcel Fabric user type extension at no cost.   ArcGIS Online does not support user type extensions at this time.  Your portal admin will need to turn this on for the creator user type (It is included with GIS Professional user type, standard or advance).   I explain why we took this approach in this blog.   ...

Good day Jamie,  You DO NOT have to convert your concurrent desktop license to the Enterprise.   However, you do need to have your User Types in the Enterprise.  ArcGIS Desktop Standard and ArcGIS Desktop Advanced include the Parcel Fabric User Type extension that can be used with the Creator User Type when the Creator User Type is provisioned to ArcGIS Enterprise.  By default, when you purchase ArcGIS Desktop, the Creator User Type and your ArcGIS Pro license will be provisioned to your ArcGIS Online account.  However, you have the option, at time of purchase, to request that the Creator User Type (with the ArcGIS Pro license) be provisioned to ArcGIS Enterprise (assuming you have an ArcGIS Enterprise license). If the ArcGIS Desktop Creator User Type was provisioned to your ArcGIS Online subscription, you will need to call customer service to move your Creator User Type license from ArcGIS Online to ArcGIS Enterprise.  When Customer Services moves the Creator User Type license, the Parcel Fabric User Type extension will also be provisioned, with the Creator User Type license, to ArcGIS Enterprise. I will let the analyst handling your case know.  ... View more

Victoria,   For a curve we need to define a direction, a radius, and a chord or arclength (How long is the curve). We can also use a delta angle.  See the curve diagram below.   The direction can be tangent to the last call, or be defined by the Chord, or radial bearing.    So in your description, we are heading southwest - South xx°xx'xx" West 689.50 feet to the beginning of a curve concave southeasterly, said curve has a radius of 900.00 feet.   In this description we know the direction of the curve is southeasterly.   We know the radius is 900 ft, we also know that the curve is concave.   However, concave is relative to whether I'm standing inside or outside of the traverse.  You do not provide a chord length or arclength.  I'll provide an example using chord length, arclength, and delta angle.   For my example, I'll assume the bearing is 45° southwest.  From this direction I need to head southeasterly. Radius = 900ft.  For this example I'll assume the chord length is the same as the last call - 689.50 ft   Assuming you are using ArcGIS Pro traverse tool In the traverse window that has the following input grid:   I would enter the following:   Using Chord Length = 689.50 1| 45-3 Enter 689.50 Enter 2| 45-2 cb Enter 0 Enter 900 enter 689.50c Enter   The 45-2 says to head South 45° East, the cb tells the tool it is a chord bearing. Enter 0 for distance 900 for radius 689.50 is the length of the chord.  The c tells the tool that it is chord distance since the column we're entering into is expecting arclength.   Using ArcLength = 707.6 ft I would enter the following:   1| 45-3 Enter 689.50 Enter 2| 45-2 cb Enter 0 Enter 900 Enter 707.60 Enter   Notice that I did not have to specify an override for the arclength.    Lastly, I could enter a delta angle.  I'll use a delta angle of 45   1| 45-3 Enter 689.50 Enter 2| 45-2 cb Enter 0 Enter 900 Enter 45d Enter   In this example I specified 45d in the arclength field that tells the tool that this is the delta angle of 45°   Each one of these will produce the same results.  If the curve is concave in the opposite direction.   Put a minus sign in front of the radius (-900)   Hope this helps ...
