Indeed, but I'm just working with a vanilla pandas dataframe. The memory workspace is limited to the output of arcpy operations it seems.

I'm curious if arcpy methods that take as input a CSV or text file can accept a file-like object instead, so I don't have to write to disk before invoking. For example, if I have a dataframe df: import pandas as pd from io import StringIO import arcpy s_buff = StringIO() df.to_csv(s_buff) arcpy.management.BearingDistanceToLine(s_buff, "memory\\output", "x", 'y', 'd', bearing_field="b") This generates an error: Error in executing tool. s_buff.read(), s_buff.seek(0) also generates errors. I know I could write to a temporary file, but I'd rather not.

Hi @ArnoFiva - I'm more curious about the current (but also planned) MapViewer and SceneViewer capabilities. We are not using any custom JS solutions yet. Currently the MapViewer does not seem to have any purge option available. I work in aviation, so when flights have landed (stopped moving for some time) it would be nice to remove the map clutter, as well as 3D options to allow users to easily view flight traffic.

Seems like out of the box support in AGOL for StreamLayers is somewhat minimal. I'm trying to remove old observation (those that haven't had an update in one minute say). In addition - configured lables show up for both the latest record as well as previous records when zoomed in. AND no support in SceneViewer. Does anyone know if these things are coming shortly, or is most of the sophistication in creating visualizations on StreamLayers limited to custom JavaScript apps - So any of the app builders have better ways to interact with StreamLayers? Thanks!

Thanks - I had not found that part of the documentation. I could not find that folder location - likely my admin might have deleted after install - so all I had to look through was the opt/ArcGIS/server folder. I was able to download the windows installer for Geoevent and unpack the .cab file to get the program though.

Does it exist - because I could not find GeoEventSimulator.exe anywhere in /opt/arcgis/server. If it doesn't exist, how can I get it?

My org has locally over 2k tifs from SRTM in an S3 bucket - curious if someone could point me to a high level workflow / steps to achieve the following. 1. Local querying (via arcpy or Pro) to pass in feature classes to assign elevation values to points. I assume this has something to do with creating a mosaic dataset / DEM surface, and then referencing that in Pro / arcpy workflows, but that is where my knowledge stops. 2. Publishing mosaic dataset as an Image service so similar workflows (assign elevation to points, as well as visualization) can be achieved via web servers (we have image server in our Enterprise instance for this). Any tutorials or high level process steps could help - I'm saavy in ArcGIS space, just not imagery / raster space.

Thank you - you might be right the general use cases might be minimal. Our primary use case is aviation data - a lot of systems export flight data as lat / long / altitude in CSV format, so easily being able to view this in 3D would be useful.

‎04-11-2023

Thanks for the response - this pattern makes sense but seems a little cumbersome -so there is no way to enable this on creating a feature layer from a CSV (which is useful because it infers your schema), and no way to enable it after a feature service has been created?

I've uploaded a CSV with lat/longs and created a hosted feature layer in AGOL. One of the attributes in the layer is altitude (in feet), but I am unable to symbolize these points in the scene viewer, which seems to only be able to show a constant altitude for all points. I know if I created a shapefile with z values, or maybe geojson and reuploaded this might work, but is there any way to enable this with a CSV layer, either with Arcade or a analysis service to add Z values? Or a way I'm missing to do this in the scene viewer for point features?

I have Pro 3.0.4 on my computer, and ArcGIS Server 10.9.1 (fully patched) on Linux. In all cases I'm just exporting the schema - no data, and taking a table from a local file gdb and recreating it in an enterprise GDB. If I ExportXMLWorksapceDocument from Pro, copy the XML file to my Linux box and run ImportXMLWorkspace document it fails. If I ExportXMLWorkspace from Pro, and run import also from Pro, it works. If I ExportXMLWorkspace from Server, and run import also from Server, it works. The pattern I need is the first one, which is failing. Is this because my Pro version is not aligned with the Server version, because I couldn't find anything in the documentation that indicated it needs to be. I don't have access to my production databases, so I'm trying to use git to get xml files to the production server, and have a automated script which checks a folder and creates the tables. I am testing here in my development environment (which is why I do have access to the databases for testing).

100% agree.

‎04-03-2023

Thanks - its good to get a read from the community. There is a lot of text in the file, which is probably why it's taking so long. A lot of our users don't have Pro, so want to set the understanding of how long things might take.

It's very easy with hosted feature layers to allow users to export the data to CSV, GeoJSON, Shapefile, etc. from the item info page via the Export Data button. I would like to enable this for server-based feature layers with the extract capability enabled. However, when I look at the item info page for the Feature Layer there is no Extract Data button available, and no options on the Settings tab to enable it. Which means users wanting to export the data will either need Pro, or to use the Extract Data from the analysis pane of the Map Viewer, which seems like too many steps when you just want to export the data. Is there any way to enable this capability for Server based feature services?

‎03-30-2023

I can't tell what the expected behavior is: creating a point hosted feature class from a 40 MB CSV with about 90 records takes almost 4 minutes. Our severs area appropriately sized according to Esri's recommended specifications, and I see no errors in the logs. Almost 40 jobid requests in the network tab indicate "partial" - I assume it's uploading the data in subsets - but this still feels too long. AGOL takes under 30 seconds. Thoughts? Do I just want things to be faster than they are?
