It has been established that AGOL has access to some good boundary layers on the Living Atlas and other places. How do I "snip a portion off" of these system layers? Let's say I put on the ZIP layer, and I want to snip off just the ZIPs that are within some boundary...like the city of Phoenix or the CBSA. What is the workflow?  Every time I try to use an operation like "intersects" it doesn't do it?  I need to end up with a separate layer with just the stuff I want in it.  I want to display and enrich just the resultant features, not the whole thing. Bonus question:  why does BAO have an ESRI 2020 pop layer, but AGOL only has ESRI 2020 pop density layer? Thank You.   ... View more

I see that you have 2 sources of information for BAO now, InfogGraph and SafeGraph.  When to use?  Are they trying to be similar, or are the complements? I LOVE that you allow full address data in BAO extracts now, we use it to monitor competitor clinics, and makes matching to other sources MUCH easier. Thanks! ... View more

I'm having a persistent problem in AGOL.  I make a mundane layer, like a drive-time layer or something, and when I go to use "enrich layer", I can click on it, but it doesn't work.  It doesn't bring up the parameters, its as if I didn't click on it. If I exit the map, make a new map, stick in the layer I want to enrich in this new map, I can enrich no problem.  Then I exit the new dummy map, re-open my old map, and add the enriched layer, and I can use it fine.  This has been going on for about 2 months, and persists across new maps, old maps, new layers, old layers, whatever. Is this a bug?  Anybody else have this? ... View more

I have a need to create a sort of "drive time force field" feature.  The idea is that I have several points, and I start driving from all of the simultaneously, and I want to get the resulting area feature from all of the start points where they run into one another.  Then I could look at population and other things inside those areas. Kind of like this: There's 3 locations, and they all run into each other in the line scratched in red on the blue "iso-drive-time" lines. I want to get the "zone 3" polygon for each dot.  The idea would be I don't want anything over 15min, I just want to get the zone of contention, so to speak. Maybe like in physics, I'm thinking of calculating where gravity/electric/magnetic field would null out from the distance of the points? It would like running the drivetime function on 3 points at a time, but somehow using a smart version of the "split" option for the "areas of different points" input, only it would be smart, stop moving at the intersections with the other points' drivetimes. Any ideas on how to do this in AGOL?  Any ideas in general on doing it in Pro or any other platform? Thank You. ... View more
