Does Quick Capture on iOS support the R2 with real-time corrections? I know it does not say so on the website, but maybe a future version. It does come up as an option. However, it does not want to connect to the R2 (default configured from our supplier) at all, and seems to also not play well when the GNSS is open and connected to the R2 (GNSS app loses connection). On Android, GNSS app also loses connection when attempting to connect in Quick Capture. I can use mock BT location, with the R2 and GNSS Status up and running, and Location Provider in Quick Capture. Of course then quick capture thinks I am using the phone's GPS and does not populate the metadata correctly for the device type. If anyone has used Quick Capture successfully with an external GPS with corrections, please let me know and give me some pointers. Which GPS device are you using? Which correction service? Why external GPS? In my last test iOS/Quick Capture was claiming 16' accuracy, when in reality the point was 60' feet off from the corrected R2 point captured in Android. This was in non-ideal conditions, but regardless external GPS is a must for my application.

Here's my update. I got frustrated with performance and connection issues with SQL Express (no Enterprise so limited to three connections), so I have spun up Postgres/PostGIS (11, 3.0), migrated all my data over, and switched most of my editing to QGIS. ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Desktop are still used for view-only users and this works quite well. Performance is night and day compared to SQL Express. Of course it would also be possible to enable editing in Arc* if we purchased Enterprise, but that is not on the radar at the moment.

I am fairly certain I was using ArcMap 7 and up.

The tech support person I was working with in my data corruption issue specifically stated that FGDB are only to be used on a local machine by one person, and that any other setup is not Esri supported. Others users have pointed out that this contradicts some other official Esri claims regarding FGDB and multi-user support (need link). One workaround in your case would be to do all the data processing on your local machine. A side-note to this whole discussion is that I have discontinued using Esri products for most data editing workflows. Our enterprise GIS is now hosted on a local server inside Postgres/PostGIS, and most data editing is done either directly in Postgres or in QGIS. This data can still be viewed in ArcMap, so to the others in the office nothing has changed (except ArcMap now loads faster). I came to this decision after trying out SQL Express (non-enterprise) and running into performance and usability issues.

Briefly, you need to have three endpoints your tile endpoint A "/VectorTileServer/" endpoint, which needs to return a json like the one below (mine redirects the index.html to a json file) A style endpoint which needs to return a valid Mapbox style (in this example also redirecting to a json style file) Good luck! Report back with your results if you get it to work. { "currentVersion": 10.7, "name": "Test", "capabilities": "TilesOnly, TileInfo", -I don 't know what these do and what other options there are "type": "flatVector", -Flat is what you want, ArcGIS Pro creates Indexed Tiles as well "defaultStyles": "../resources/styles", -Another endpoint "tiles": ["../{z}/{x}/{y}.mvt" - relative or hard link to tiles endpoint], "exportTilesAllowed": false, "tileInfo": { "rows": 512, "cols": 512, "dpi": 96, "format": "pbf", "spatialReference": { "wkid": 102100, "latestWkid": 3857 } }, "maxzoom": 19, "resourceInfo": { "styleVersion": 8, "tileCompression": "gzip" - if you get weird errors check that your tiles are being gzipped } }

Looking through the code I cannot figure out why the original objectid does not get populated into the SDE feature class. This would allow for the removal of historical versions edited features. As it stands, if I change the CreationDate to EditDate, I get the edited features, but the only way to tell that this is an updated record of an existing feature is by looking at the CreationDate. This is doable, but having a field that copies over the Survey123 objectid would be very helpful. Thoughts on how to implement this appreciated if anyone has ideas.

I realize this is three years later, but did you find a solution to extract the edited records? If you change "CreationDate" to "EditDate" the tool simply downloads the record again since it is using "append". If not any ideas on how to enable this?

WebGL is supported in all major browsers, unless you need to support IE. Also... Until I realized they don't really have 'attributes' per se, even though there is limited attribute storage it gets baked in to the tile in a static manner Vector Tiles have attributes, not sure what you mean here. You can see the attributes when you look at the tile source in your browser dev console. It is garbled due to being in PBF format, but the data is there. ADAMSVILLE" 2¶Ô 7A" Ï-²VA@" ( " ùúÚ齫?"

I am guessing one of the reasons the Esri has not implemented popups for vector tiles is due to wanting to build a better mousetrap instead of just using what works for Leaflet, Mapbox and OpenLayers, but maybe there are technical limitations as well. Still it would be great to see this feature added.

Would love to see this in AGOL as well - the ability to add popups and change the style of vector tiles in AGOL.

I figured out this is possible by replicating the Esri Vector Tile Service as partially explained here - Vector Tile Service—ArcGIS REST API: Services Directory | ArcGIS for Developers . There could be more explanation such as what do the "capabilities" refer to and definitions of all the other json keys, but nonetheless third party tiles can be added in AGOL as it stands.

I would assume the answer is yes considering I am successfully rendering custom vector tiles in AGOL. The trick is to use the Esri VectorTileService json style schema to reference the tiles. If anyone is interested I can explain more.

I am seeing a shift of over 13ft, so yes, I need better accuracy than this...well in my case it isn't accuracy really, it is simply saving the point that I pass to Survey123. I am using Survey123 for field inspections, and am passing on the latlng of the field asset to the survey. This way I do not have to add another step where I join the field assets to the survey as the asset location would be exactly the same as the survey point location. With this not being the case...not sure what I will do. Most likely eliminate collecting a geopoint altogether and simply pass the latlng as strings and manually create a point from there. Are you aware of any plans to change this setting or make this adjustable in the future? I get the idea of not wanting to collect a point from a phone or tablet with more decimal places than the actual GPS accuracy, but it would be great if this setting could adjusted by the user. I see a accuracyThreshold in my excel template, is that related to this at all?

The best advice I have heard on this if you are set on using FGDB is to set the file permissions of the file share at the server level in windows to read only for everyone who does not need write access. This prevents a lock file from being created when reading the data by read-only viewers and might not lead to the issues I was having.

We have switched to running SQL Express on a shared networked server. There are some performance issues (initial selection for editing). I have not ported everyone over to the new data so I cannot really give a good review of this setup just yet.
