My organization is working on figuring out Data Reviewer and deciding if we want to pursue using it in ArcMap or Pro.  It is interesting that the version of Data Reviewer in ArcMap is so much more extensive, and perhaps a little more intuitive, than in Pro.  Data Reviewer in ArcMap has such extensive geometry checks, for polygons and lines and points, but Pro only has feature-on-feature and cutbacks.  We are in a dilemma of wanting to continue getting used to Pro and creating a Data Reviewer system that we can re-use in future years, which makes us want to use Pro, but then Pro does not have most of the checks we want, so it seems we are going to have to use ArcMap, which is kind of ironic considering the push towards Pro. Anyway, my question is, is there some way to check for geometry issues such as polyline orphans, polygon slivers, etc. in Pro?  Like with topology rules or network rules?  I have never used the network tools before.  I have been doing a lot of Googling and research but have not been able to answer my questions yet. Note that some line feature classes we want to check for orphans are not supposed to be connected with point features at all nodes or vertices, so the edge-junction-edge network connectivity rule would not be applicable for us. ...

I am trying to find an efficient way to check the maximum possible field length for many feature classes that are in datasets in an enterprise database system.  The problem I'm seeking to solve is that once in a while, a field within a feature class has a field length limit of over a billion characters. The actual data within the field is less than 255 characters, though. So I want to find the long fields and then I will edit the max length to 255. I would love to use Python / arcpy to find the long fields. I have taken a class in Python but am not an expert, and I am brand new to using it in ArcGIS, so it would be great if you could explain things accordingly.    thank you!! Here is the code I have so far. It does begin with import arcpy - I forgot to include that in the screenshot. Here it is in a form where you can copy and paste if you want to try it out with your own workspace: import arcpy arcpy.env.workspace = r'Database Connections\prvgisdb1-GIS-webadmin.sde' data_sets = arcpy.ListDatasets() for data_set in data_sets:     print data_set # Datasets printed!     FCs = arcpy.ListFeatureClasses(data_set)     for FC in FCs:         print(FC) # Feature classes did NOT print.         fields = arcpy.ListFields(FC)         for field in fields:             if field.length > 255:             print("{0} {1} {2}".format(field.name, field.type, field.length)) #Fields did NOT print. It successfully connects to the database and prints the names of the datasets (this printing is for testing purposes).  However, nothing else printed. I know the last half of the code does work, though - I have successfully gotten the long fields to print when I told it which feature class to look at. And there are indeed fields over 255 characters, so something should print. Apparently there is some problem in this code where I have tried to put all the pieces together. Any suggestions? Thank you!! ... View more

Is it possible for Insights cards to be shared/consumed in an Operations Dashboard?  I keep seeing that Insights pages can be embedded in StoryMaps or websites, and I also see that Operations Dashboard has an "embedded content" widget, but I am not sure if you can embed Insights cards in a dashboard.  Does anyone have the answer? Thank you! ... View more
