Jamal, I have down loaded ET GeoTools 10. Now how can I use draw errows to show direction? Thanks. Uchit Hi uchit, to change the direction: sure: - show the arrows using the command (Draw arrows...) - start editing - double click the feature that you need change its direction - right click - choose Flip - save the edits, this will reverse the direction. did i answer your question? regards Jamal ...

I want to add manual direction arrows to street network. Is it possible without network analyst extention? Thanks. Uchit Patel Hi uchit, You can show the arrows temporary! use the command "copy parallel" (see the attached images). Unfortunately, the command provided by ET geoTools sounds not to do this without Network Analyst. hope this helps regards Jamal ... View more

Hi Jamal, I agree that the reclassify tool should automatically read min/max. I tried to reproduce this issue with similar data in ArcGIS 10 SP 2; however, I have not been able to reproduce the behavior you are experiencing. It could be possible that this behavior is either a data or a computer specific issue. Could you please try to see if you can reproduce this behavior with other rasters and/or on other computers? ArcGIS 10.1 is scheduled to be released in the first quarter of 2012.  ArcGIS 10.1 Beta 1 is currently available. Domestic (USA) users need to be current on maintenance and approved by the maintenance contact for their organization to participate. International users need to be nominated by their distributor. We greatly appreciate our users�?? feedbacks and try our best to fix issues that we are aware of or our customers brought to us. We are sorry that you encounter issues in ArcGIS 10 and we will be glad to work with you to identify those issues and fix them in next service pack/release. You could contact Esri Support Services (in your case, I guess Esri UK) to report bugs. Thank you for your feedback. Best regards, Pavan Thank you for the answer Pavan. Th notes and information you have provided are quite useful. regards Jamal ... View more

Hi Jamal, As I stated in your other similar thread: Still I have The message �??maximum number of connections to instance exceeded" It looks like you have Personal ArcSDE technology (aka. ArcSDE for SQL Server Express) and it only supports 3 concurrent users, one of which can be an editor. If you would like to enable concurrent editing with 3 or more users, you will have to upgrade to Workgroup ArcSDE technology (aka. ArcSDE for SQL Server Express). Multiuser Geodatabase Hope this helps, Thank you for the answer Law. then what is the correct commercial name for the ArcGIS software needed to have 10 concurrent editors? regards Jamal ...

File geodatabase is an Esri storage format.  It has nothing to do with Microsoft's SQL-Server database structure.  They are incompatible, in the same way that diesel fuel can't be used by a gasoline engine. - V You are right! from a user point of view, it is much easier for me to just connect the file geodatabase to the server so that many users can edit the data according to the permissions and privileges given. as the sql server doesn't work this way, we need each to create a new goedatabse on the server then to copy and past the data from our file geodatabase to that created  one on the server! no direct connect can be made! I'm wondering what should i do if i need to expose my file geodatabse (saved on my hard disk) for edits through the server such that many users can edit this data concurrently, then which solution may ArcGIS offer for this case? any suggestions? regards Jamal ...

Jamal, The .gdb file (file geodatabase) cannot be directly converted to a .mdf file (SQL Server database file).  Instead, create a new geodatabase on the database server, then import or copy and paste the data from the file geodatabase to the geodatabase on the database server. Regards, -Kim Thank you for the answer Kim. Is this practical? i don't understand why we cann't add (connect) our file geodatabase to the server directly without the need to have MDF file or even to import the data into a new geodatebase? regards Jamal ...

Hi Jamal, Sorry I haven't had a chance to get back to you sooner.  I believe what you're experiencing is a data/version specific bug in the software.  I would not expect any user to type the min/max (unless it's a workaround) to reclassify some data.  I was only attempting, with that suggestion, to get you a reclassified raster that you could continue working with.  In an earlier post, I mentioned that I created a NDVI raster (from a single Landsat scene) using the Raster Calculator and was able to reclassify it without having to type the min/max or make any changes to the precision dialog.  I actually had to intentionally mess it up to get the same warning as you.  By default it was working as you would expect it to.  The main difference between you and me though, is I was using 10.1 Beta version, and we have different (yet similar) data. If you have the tutorial data installed you could use the same Landsat scene I used, to create your own NDVI raster and attempt to reclassify it to see if you get the error in 10.0.  See attached for data location.  If you can't repro the warning messages with the tutorial data, then it's probably specific to the raster values in your real dataset, and you might consider sending it to your local Esri distributor so they can forward it to us as part of a bug report. Best Regards, Eric Thank you Eric for the comprehensive answer. The issue here is the reclassification not the NDVI! I expected that the ArcGIS can reclassify any raster AUTOMATICALLY!!! by the way, i got the NDVI (fro the image) from ERDAS 2011 then added this NDVI to ArcGIS for further analysis! what about ArcGIS 10.1? when will it be available? and how come the ArcGIS 10.0 is full of bugs that much even with the very basic issues? very much appreciated regards Jamal ...

Jamal, Try increasing the significant digits to 9.  If that doesn't work, check the option to use "Format" precision.  For your min use -1.0 and for the max use 1.0.  This worked for me.  Optionally you could use the real min/max obtained from the layer properties > source tab > statistics section.  Those are the real min/max values.  The stats in the classification dialog are estimates. Note, your screenshot is the default.  Everytime you open the tool it should have those values.  Any changes will only 'stick' if you make the changes, run the tool, then run the tool again from the Results window. Regards, Eric thank you Eric. sure, if i change MANUALLY the min and max, then it should work!!!! my point is why ArcGIS is not able to get the true min and max automatically????!!!!! given that ArcGIS knows the actual min and max with right digital numbers!!!!!! why we are involved in such problem as user? my question is still valid: how to classify AUTOMATICALLY this raster? all the best Jamal ...

Jamal, In the Reclassify tool, click the button called "Precision" and send a screenshot of your settings.  As the warning is indicating (not an error message) you may need to make adjustments to the precision, or maybe you just need to get it back to the defaults if you already made adjustments.  I calculated an NDVI raster and reclassified it without any warnings.  Only after fiddling with the settings and reducing the significant digits to only a couple was I able to repro the warning messages your are getting. Regards, Eric thank you for the help erictrice. Attached is the screen shot for the precision. the problem that the reclassification of "image1_ndvi.img"  (attached in the previous post) generates this warning!!!!! what's wrong with it? what is the default? regards Jamal ...

Hi Jamal, Please convert your img file to tiff or grid format using Copy Raster tool. http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#//001700000094000000 and then reclassify the raster again. Thanks. Thank you for the answer Tarun_Jaiswal. i tried it but didn't work. please, see the attached image why this error happens? regards Jamal ... View more
