You've posted here in the Living Atlas Community, this question might be a better fit in the ArcGIS Pro or ArcGIS Online Community depending on what you're looking to do. ArcGIS Living Atlas does have a selection of content for Vietnam: https://livingatlas.arcgis.com/en/browse/?q=vietnam#d=2&q=vietnam&rgnCode=VN In addition, Living Atlas basemaps such as World Topographic, World Imagery, and the others do have global coverage. If you are specifically after those files stored in the UT Austin archives: https://maps.lib.utexas.edu/maps/topo/vietnam/ I downloaded one of those to experiment. While you can add the PDF file as a document in ArcGIS Online, I am assuming that you want to add the topos as layers in a map. To do that, you'll need to use ArcGIS Pro to convert GeoPDF to GeoTIFF, then publish it from there. If Pro is your goal, then the conversion from GeoPDF to GeoTIFF should be what you want: https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/conversion/pdf-to-tiff.htm After successful completion of the conversion, you would need to publish it as a service for use in a web map. I gave this a quick try and Pro complained that there was no spatial reference for the GeoPDF I downloaded from the UT site. While it successfully converted the file to TIF, it did not have a spatial reference.  Next I gave it a quick go in a public domain GeoPDF converter. While it successfully converted to GeoTIFF, there were obvious issues in the resultant file, making me suspicious of the source files. Were it me, I would double check the topo archive to make sure they are proper GeoPDF files if your goal is to publish these a map services for use in web maps. Others here may be able to offer other advice.. ... View more

At this time, a Hub is not a supported content type in ArcGIS Living Atlas. The Hub team does maintain a gallery of showcase hub sites here: https://hub.arcgis.com/pages/gallery And you can mention the Hubs you've identified at the Hub Community site to propose inclusion in the Gallery. https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-hub/ct-p/arcgis-hub ...

Wondering why the need for 100 layers?   ... View more

Your thoughts and suggestions are appreciated. A question back to you is: How many blocks would you find sufficient to meet your needs? There may be other things that you could consider that would offer more flexibility in showing additional content for viewers without showing lots of maps at once. The current 15 block limit given 16 items per block is a potential total of 240 items - a lot to look at for anyone. Some things that might be worth considering: Use a group containing other groups - a group of groups. Use the Category Gallery, a group-based Instant Apps which can be configured to display items in a group with filtering. Add links to Hubs. I believe the above would offer more options for presenting content and still keep things simple on your Home page. From my understanding of what you are trying to do (which might not be accurate) I would suggest looking at Category Gallery. It's one of my favorites for presenting lots of content in easy-to-filter ways. The categories can be group-based categories, content can be placed under multiple categories, and you can quickly and easily change/add/remove categories.   Blog article here: https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-online/mapping/category-gallery/ ...

The end of this blog article also includes examples showing how to add information from other layers in your map as well as layers from other destinations, such as Living Atlas https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-online/mapping/pop-ups-arcade-essentials/ This map is the example in that blog: https://www.arcgis.com/apps/mapviewer/index.html?webmap=bcecad5bc4a5456bada1cd5e230bbf7f Click a peak and then examine the Arcade expression for that layer to see how the feature is buffered to search for additional information from Living Atlas layers not included in the map. ...

Instead of adding from URL, try adding from file as described in this blog article: https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-online/mapping/use-google-drive-arcgis-online/ That covers both adding from Google Drive and updating. The result is a feature layer like any other feature layer, so you can apply filters, etc. The layer can also be configured as the search source in ArcGIS Instant Apps.   ... View more

Arcade should work, but another method might be to use Map Viewer Classic (analysis tools coming to Map Viewer next week). See if Overlay Layers delivers what you need. Overlay Layers Combines two or more layers into a single layer.  I ran a test of overlaying a point layer (your wells) with a polygon layer with a resultant point layer that combines attributes from the polygon layer. From there you could create views on the feature layer that would enable you to author separate maps to keep the boss happy. ... View more

Hello John - I'm assuming you mean this service: https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=99cd5fbd98934028802b4f797c4b1732 If so, you are correct that the USGS Topographic Map Service is not published at all those scales. Honestly, I can't offhand recall the reason why but can check further if you find that important. However, as noted in the item details, the layer is in mature support as of March 2019 and is no longer updated. A better alternative is to use the USGS Historical Topographic Map Explorer which delivers maps at larger scales. https://livingatlas.arcgis.com/topoexplorer/index.html That Living Atlas app provides a way to specify a place of interest, view all available USGS topo maps for that area by date and extent, and (after signing in) save the desired topo map to a web map for further use. The app is scheduled for a redesign in the future.   ... View more
