The Imagery Transition Basemap (by @AndrewSkinner ) is one of my favs and I've added it to my organization's custom basemap gallery. It transitions as you zoom in to imagery. https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=0f31140623f9401e8c189a497f234dda ... View more

Hi Ryan The issues that were discussed in this thread have been reproduced and a fix has already been applied on the development environment. I've not verified the fix yet, but will do so. The issue can happen when you use both the Zoom in the Sidebar panel, and also a custom search target in the Search tool. AFAIK there haven't been any changes. Remember that there are two zoom settings that can be configured. One is for the Zoom link you see in the Sidebar panel when you click a feature, the other is an option zoom scale for when you've configure the Search tool. Maybe that is what you are noticing now. The Instant Apps are available in the ArcGIS Online Early Adopter program. Info here: https://www.esri.com/en-us/user-research-testing/early-adopter?rsource=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.esri.com%2Fen-us%2Fearly-adopter   ... View more

It would be helpful to know which basemaps you are having issues with. Just about all, save for two country-specific basemaps from Esri distributors, are completely public. Here's the list of Esri basemaps, all public: https://livingatlas.arcgis.com/en/browse/#d=2&categories=Basemaps&type=maps&cont=true   ... View more

After further experimentation, I may be seeing similar search zoom behavior. If possible, can you share the map with me and how you configured it? I've managed to come up with a repro case, but your specific example would be helpful if it is available. Here's my repro case, see if you can replicate what you see with this example: https://www.arcgis.com/apps/instant/sidebar/index.html?appid=f32fb897044a4cee872949d2dbe04115 In the above, a layer in the map has been configured as the search target. Enter the name of a pass (you can start with "s") to check things out. Then pan or zoom to another feature and click to display the pop-up in the sidebar, then click zoom. I've discovered there's a certain sequence that can result in what's been noted above. See if you concur. Anticipate a fix in the upcoming June update (if not earlier). ... View more

One thing I would recommend is to explicitly set the zoom level and see if that helps you out. Go into full setup mode and toggle this on and then set the scale. If the map/app is shareable I can have a quick look...   ... View more

One thing to consider is that you can publish hosted services as three types: feature layers, tile layers and vector tiles. the info button (i) will provide some guidance. While conventional wisdom in the past may have steered you to tiles for performance, IMHO the best way to go these days is to publish feature layers for your operational layers as you'll have more than "dumb tiles." Vector tile layers would be another good bet if you don't need to interrogate the features as they have advantages over tiles. If you really want to publish tiles, then you can build tiles for a map document and store them in a tile package (.tpk file). You can share a tile package on ArcGIS Online and publish it as a hosted tile layer. This workflow allows you to build tiles using your own computing power, rather than your ArcGIS Online credits, so is a very economical way to create hosted tile layers if that's what you want to do. ...

Here's a test case with an item shared in two groups, both beginning with M - My Group and My Other Group. Though all you see it the M with a slight color difference: If you click Share, then edit group sharing:  You will see a list of your groups with the letter and (hopefully) from the name you should be able to figure out which is which. If you can't tell from the name, you can always edit the name for one of those groups until you get things cleaned upl ... View more

I honestly think you will find that ArcGIS Online is your best platform for sharing maps with co-workers. Since you specifically mentioned co-workers, I am assuming that what you want to publish and share shouldn't be publicly visible. If true, then you will find it difficult to beat the privacy of sharing the current GIS content you have to your organization constituents (I'm assuming they would be members of your ArcGIS organization). Especially since you mention ArcReader, which was a great product that leveraged your organization's data, you'll want to leverage that same content in a more modern web-based environment that ArcGIS Online provides. And whether or not public access is your goal, the availability of easy-to-configure Instant Apps and app builders, Storymaps, and Dashboards just extends your capabilities, whether private or public. It would be very difficult for you to even come close to replicating that in some other platform especially if you want to keep things tightly coupled to your core assets. As for "displaying the exact same way as in Pro" that should be doable, though you might need to think beyond Pro as the ultimate authoring environment and instead envision Pro as a way to create the building blocks that you will configure and assemble in ArcGIS Online. Map Viewer will likely not be your ultimate delivery vehicle to your intended audience, any of the configurable apps or app builders will likely be that vehicle. I'd humbly suggest thinking beyond your previous ArcReader workflows and explore what is possible in today's online ecosystem. It will save you a lot of time and hassle, and be tightly coupled with your core GIS work. ... View more

Marco, thanks for pointing that out. Those colored buildings really do add an extra dimension to the OSM 3D data. At present, we're not planning on leveraging the color tags but might in the future. For the upcoming June ArcGIS Online update, we are planning on releasing several iterations of global 3D basemaps based on the OSM Daylight Distribution. These iterations will following along the lines of what we have done with the 2D basemaps - applying various styles that our vector tile basemaps are published in - imagery hybrid, navigation, grey canvas, etc. https://livingatlas.arcgis.com/en/browse/?q=OSM#d=2&categories=Reference+Maps&q=OSM ...

Your locally based renderings of building might always better the generic, globally available 3D building leveraged from the OSM Daylight Distribution. This blog article describes how to leverage more detailed building representations while using the OSM Daylight Distribution for context: https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-living-atlas/3d-gis/osm-3d-scene/ To publish your own, you can visit the OSM Daylight Distribution site: https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-living-atlas/3d-gis/osm-3d-scene/ This might provide you a way to enhance the current OSM 3D available buildings, but in the majority of cases I have seen the local 3D content is developed independently though can be enhanced as described in the blog article to include generic OSM Daylight Distribution 3D renderings. ...

Yes, that's the way to do it. Zoom in or out, or pan to different locations and you'll see differences in the metadata.   ... View more

I just realized that blog covered Map Viewer Classic. To view the metadata in Map Viewer, just add the World Imagery layer from Living Atlas, then click on the map after zooming to and in to your area of interest (metadata is scale-dependent).   ... View more

Portfolio, and all other ArcGIS Instant Apps, should automatically notify you if there are inconsistencies in sharing with the content you have used in the Portfolio. If using Living Atlas subscriber content, Portfolio will automatically proxy for subscriber content and only ask to ok if there is premium subscriber content (content which consumes credits). The above said, were it me I would have a closer look at each map/app used in your Portfolio. It may be possible that you have made changes to those after you initially configured your portfolio that might generate the authentication prompt. I'd check everything you've added in an incognito browser to double check that what you think is public, is really public. ... View more
