The Field Maps app configuration settings suggest that there are currently (version 22.1.0) three supported options for laser range finders (or offsetProvider): Bad Elf Flex, Eos Tools Pro, and Spike. I've successfully used the LTI 360B and 360R with the Bad Elf Flex (documentation) on both iOS and Android. I've also used a Spike (documentation) with a variety of GNSS receivers (Spike's list of tested receivers includes: Trimble R1, Bad Elf, Eos Arrow and Juniper Geode); Spike is iOS only. ...

Have you had a look at creating your own view of the ArcGIS World Geocoding Service? Not creating your own geocoding service, but creating a locator that is a view of the existing service, and which implements your desired search constraints?  See Create a locator view.   ... View more

@MikeUnderwood The ReachView 3 app, and earlier versions, have been in the iOS App Store for years. ReachView3 allows to to use an Emlid RS2 GNSS receiver with that specific app. In the past that hasn't helped with sharing the receiver's location information with other apps, like ArcGIS Field Maps or Survey123. I would be glad to hear that has changed! Have you had a chance to verify if you can now use an Emild RS2 with ArcGIS Field Maps? ... View more

@HollyTorpey_LSA I haven't tried this with a distributed or partnered collaboration yet. It wasn't an option when we first started doing this, however, I think it should be possible. I will have to give it a try this summer! For us, most of the data on the portable Enterprise server is imagery or reference layers that are not being updated. Things we don't have to worry about syncing or copying back. For the hosted feature layers we are actively editing in the field, we usually connect to the portable server with Pro, and copy those layers into one or more local File Geodatabases. Then, when we are back on the Internet, we use python to manage updating the permanent server with the content of those databases. (Make sure when sharing/overwriting from Pro to your permanent Online/Enterprise destination that you have editor tracking enabled on the FGDB, and remember to check the box to "Preserve editor tracking info".) In many cases, our "authoritative" copy of the data becomes the one we take into the field. No one is editing those layers on the permanent server while folks are away. That makes it easy to truncate the tables and push the new data into its place, as we are not worried about syncing under those circumstances. When we have had to support editing in both the field and office, we have gone the route of adding a Microsoft SQL server to the laptop and using Enterprise Geodatabases as registered Data Stores to back the feature layers. We then used two-way database replication with disconnected check-ins/check-outs to keep things in sync. This approach is also helpful if you periodically have someone going back to civilization. They can take a copy of the replica off-site, connect to the Internet, sync the changes, and bring back updates from the office.  Note that peer-to-peer syncing can become time-consuming when you have more than a few folks in the field, given the number of individual syncs required to get everyone up-to-date. ...

@KoryKramer I am disappointed to see this flagged as Already Offered.  In light of the functionality existing, I would still consider @Amadeus111 's Idea as a relevant suggestion for improving the user experience associated with the functionality. The current implementation works, however, it is not as user friendly, nor as intuitive, as something along the lines of the Idea. There are many systems, including ArcGIS products, that support the pattern of having a checkbox at the top of a list, which impacts selection of all of the items in the list ... View more

I've used unicode characters as a workaround to get italicized characters into the title of an ArcGIS StoryMap. There are italic characters in Unicode's Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols block (see Wikipedia's helpful table for the codes.) If you're unsure how to directly enter unicode characters, you can use your operating system's helper app, and cut-and-paste from there: Windows -- Character Map MacOS -- Emoji & Symbols - Character Viewer ...

Perhaps some else has found a way around this, however, all I can do is confirm that it doesn't seem possible to do this. Access to the Esri training site is tied to accounts visible to ArcGIS Online, whether they are built-in or enterprise accounts. ArcGIS Online provides a setting for accounts -- both built-in and enterprise -- called "Esri Access", which can be set to enable/disable access to training and other content. Enterprise, however, does not offer that same setting, as its accounts -- built-in or enterprise -- are not tied ArcGIS Online. So at the moment, it appears the only option is to setup ArcGIS Online to use the same enterprise scheme, and enable Esri Access for those accounts in Online.  ... View more

I would guess this is because you are trying to directly embed your Sheet in your story using the URL you usually use to access your Sheet in Google Sheets. In that view Google is expecting to have full control over your browser window, and the content at that URL is not meant to play well with others. In order to embed a Google Sheet in another web page, you want to follow Google's steps for creating an embed URL, by "Publishing your Sheet", and then use that URL in your StoryMap: Make Google Docs, Sheets, Slides & Forms public: Embed files   ...

I feel your frustration. These example Notebooks would be a great resource, if they were kept up-to-date, so those with little Python experience could learn from them. As it is, these Notebooks work briefly when they first come out, and then most stop working completely due to updates in the ArcGIS API for Python and/or the ArcGIS Online Notebook environment. Those updates usually trigger issues that someone new to Python likely does not have the right skills yet to diagnose, so they waste time and get nowhere. It would be nice if Esri committed to keeping the examples up-to-date. As of a few weeks ago, the missing step to getting SignImageClassificationModel working was to ensure you ran it using the correct, older runtime in an ArcGIS Online Notebook. So whether you download and then upload the Notebook, used Save As, or are cutting-and-pasting into your own Notebook, go to your Notebook's Settings, and change the runtime to "ArcGIS Notebook Python 3 Advanced with GPU support - 4.0".  (See Specify the runtime of a notebook.) Once you've done that, then following the steps in the Notebook exactly -- installing version 1.8.4 of the API, restarting the kernel afterwards -- should result in a fully working Notebook. ...

At some point it appears that Esri changed the underlying limits on requests like this, hence, the "Too many requests" message. If you are running a lot of searches, like in this script, then you need to add a sleep timer to slow down the rate of our requests.  We haven't figured out what the new limits are, nor have we come across any documentation, however, similar scripts that started failing for us with that error are now working fine again with a sleep inserted. Typically sleeping for 5 or 10 seconds between queries was required. Unfortunately that means your scripts will take much longer to complete. ... View more

@BenParker I have had similar disappearing content experiences. Two common causes I've found are when the link includes a security token or the link is to a Content Delivery Network (CDN) cache, rather than directly to the content itself.  In the case of the token, some systems use them, even for publicly available content. They expect you to get to the content by going through their system, perhaps via their own "viewer app". In that case, the system can always generate an up-to-date token to append to the URL, and can support public access. In those systems, if you try to get to the content directly yourself, the URL you've copied into your story works fine, until that token times out, then things start failing. Similarly some systems assume you will go through them first, and they can direct you to the current URL for an item on their CDN. (CDN's are great for caching content closer to end-users to improve performance.) Those CDN URLs, however, can change over time; if something isn't accessed for awhile, then it may get dropped from the cache, and when someone accesses it again, it will get assigned a new URL. So a URL you've copied into your story works fine for awhile, but then starts failing when the content is no longer in the cached location. Your issue might not be Pano2VR itself, but rather how you are hosting the content it produces. ... View more
