Hello, We have created a survey in Survey123 Connect.  Everything in the actual Survey123 and Survey123 Connect seems to be working fine.  However, when we access the same survey from the Survey123 website and try to view surveys (under 'Data' tab), we are having issues with map extents.  The overall map zooms to the extents of the features which is fine.  However, when I click on an individual record the smaller map under 'Individual Response' zooms over California.  All of our points are in North Carolina.  Below is a screenshot.  Survey was created using Survey123 Connect 2.3.24 (latest version). Any idea if there is a way to change this behavior if just a bug? Thanks! Neal ... View more

Hello, I am new to Attribute Assistant and having problem using 'Generate_ID_By_Intersect' for seemingly very simple test case as described below. Editing feature class :  kmepnt Editing feature class ID that I am trying to populate:  UnqID Grid Layer that I am trying to intersect:  Basins Grid Layer Field I am trying to use in UnqID:  BasinNm GenerateID Table Sequence Name:  kmepnt_ID Dynamic Table Value Info Expression:  Basins|BasinNm|kmepnt_ID Im simply trying to add a point to 'kmepnt' layer and have it automatically populate the 'UnqID' field with 'BasinNm' and then sequence number.  In my case basin name is 3 character string (e.g. "GOO"), so if I add points in GOO watershed they UnqID would be populated with "GOO1", "GOO2", etc.  When I add the point, the UnqID does not populate (is null).  I made sure that Attribute Assistant is "On". I was able to successfully use the basic 'Generate_ID' with sequences and static string formats, so dont see what I am missing here.  All layers and tables are in the same test file geodatabase.  Below is screenshot showing layer/table setup Any help would be appreciated Thanks!

Hello, I have an annoying issue in Survey123 that seem should be basic.  I am trying to populate the default "answer" (value) of one question based on an answer to a previous question.  In my case the first question (Q1)  is "Structure1_Type", which is a 'select_one' question.  The second question (Q2) that I am trying to populate default answer based on answer given to first question is "Structure1_Material", which is also a 'select_one' question.  Both questions are in a nested group named "Structure 1". Basically, if user selects the a type="ABC" in Q1, I want default answer for Q2 to be "Metal", otherwise I want it to be "Concrete".  The conditional expression I am using is: if(${Structure1_Type}='ABC', 'Metal', 'Concrete') Initially I tried putting that expression into the 'Calculation'.  It does not give an error, but most of the questions in the Structure 1 group (i.e. Q1 and Q2 are no longer on the form).  If I put the expression in the default field, instead of showing the answer in Q2, it shows a greyed out copy of my expression with a line through it (suggestion expression is invalid).  I even tried adding a separate note field named "kmeMaterial" and putting the calculation there first and then referencing it in the default field of Q2.  Interestingly, the value populates correctly in "kmeMaterial" but it gives the same greyed out expression with line in Q2 (where I want to actually store the permanent answer). Attached is a screenshot that shows how the last trial looks in Survey123 Connect.  As you can see, "kmeMaterial" correctly shows an answer of 'Metal', however, the "Structure 1: Material" (i.e. Q2) has the issue. I want to use similar logic in multiple places in my form, so this issue is hampering thing quite a bit.  Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks Neal ... View more

I have been having increasing issues model builder that utilizes model parameters as inputs and feature layers in an existing ArcMap table of contents.  I models run successfully for a while, but then if I change the underlying input layers at all (even if if has no impact on the model process), it acts flaky.  For example, I have a simple model that simply calculates three fields in an existing feature class that I have loaded in ArcMap.  The input feature layer is exposed as parameter, but I have a default value set.  It worked fine may times, but now when I run it, I get a message that there are no records in the table (even though there are).  To make it work now, instead of using default or picking from list of ArcMap TOC items, I have to point the input to the feature class by loading the feature class directly in the tool interface (i.e. hitting the little folder icon and navigating to the where feature class is stored).  If I do that it works fine. he attached images show the simple model, model interface, and message I am getting. This is happening in other cases where I have more complex models that have input as parameters, and that have pick lists of fields based on the selected feature class.  Im finding if I add fields to a certain layer and then run the model and pick the feature class, it does see the new fields. It seems like something about the models is storing memory of previous runs related to feature layers loaded in the ArcMap document. I have tried closing out ArcMap sessions, cleaning temporary file locations, using MXD doctor, and similar. Any input on what may be happening would be greatly appreciated! Thanks Neal ... View more

I am creating a TIN of flood elevations from a polyline feature class that has elevations along a stream network (i.e. cross sections) and and stream corridor polygon feature class to clip the TIN (i.e. clip polygon).  I am using cross sections as "hard lines" and clip polygon as "hard clip".  I have done this for projects many times.  Most of the time, the resulting TIN is what I am expecting, but occasionally it has these mysterious gaps that I cannot figure out why they happen.  The attached graphic show an example.  Does anyone know what may be causing this?  Ive already check that the cross sections all have elevations are single part features, and that boundary is single part features. A couple interesting observations: - When I create small TINS of just those areas the resulting TIN is fine (no gap) - If I create the TIN with just the cross sections, and then use edit TIN to add the clip polygon, that usually solves all or most of the gaps - no idea why these would give different results Thanks for any insight!

I have a model processes some raster datasets.  It runs fine if I run it within the ModelBuilder environment, but I get syntax errors if I run it directly from a toolbox.  The model has several raster calculator processes with somewhat complex map algebra statements with inline variable substitution. Seems like some python interpretor issue in raster calculator that is handled differently between ModelBuilding and direct toolbox Attached are the model and the error.  In the error screenshot, you can see the expression Im trying to use. Any insight or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks Neal ... View more
