Hi,   Thanks for your idea! I’m a product engineer on the GeoAnalytics team and I would like to ask a few questions about your workflow. Are you running GeoAnalytics, Standard Tools, or Raster Analysis tools? Are you seeing problems running all of these, or only one or some?  Are you running these tools through the Portal Map Viewer, Pro, the Python API or through REST? I’m assuming you are using ArcGIS 10.5. Each of the products, GeoAnalytics, Standard Tools and Raster tools use output data stores that are optimized for the data being used. For example, standard analysis will always output to the relational data store. GeoAnalytics analysis will output to the spatiotemporal data store, and for the “copy to data store” tool, you can copy to the spatiotemporal or relational data store. At 10.5.1 we are exposing the option for a user to write GeoAnalytics results to spatiotemporal or relational. Can you please contact to support to identify the workflow you are completing that is returning Error 999999? They will be able to determine what is causing the issues. My last question, can you please outline what you mean by  we can select them on Server Manager / Site / Data Stores Selecting a data store in sever manager will not control what Data Store is used for output of analysis. Those selections are to apply the operations available through Server Manager (like validate, refresh, edit and delete). Thanks, Sarah ... View more

Hi Charlie, It makes sense that GeoAnalytics isn't working. Currently GeoAnalytics is only supported on-premises (using ArcGIS Enterprise) and is not available in ArcGIS Online. ArcGIS Online does have the tools summarize within and join features. I believe that Summarize Within can currently be run using the Python API (arcgis.features.summarize_data module — arcgis 1.0.1 documentation). I don't think Join Features using the standard tool is currently supported in the Python API, but I will ask a Python API colleague to follow up.  Thanks, Sarah ... View more

Hi Charlie, Can you please confirm for me that you have GeoAnalytics enabled on your Portal? If you do have GeoAnalytics enabled, are you able to run any GeoAnalytics tools through Pro, the Portal map viewer or REST?  Here is an overview of GeoAnalytics: What is ArcGIS GeoAnalytics Server?—Documentation | ArcGIS Enterprise  Here is some documentation on how to run the tools through the Portal UI: Use the GeoAnalytics Tools in the portal map viewer—Documentation | ArcGIS Enterprise  Please let me know what you find out.  Thanks, Sarah Product Engineer, GeoAnalytics Team ...

Hi Sindre,  For your two issues: The spatial "near" distance requires a projected coordinate system. You can set this using the Environement settings in Pro and Portal, or in the context parameters through REST. For the second issue with the temporal relationship, have you applied the GeoAnalytics patch? There is a fix for the temporal operator on multiple machines that may fix your issue: ArcGIS Server 10.5 GeoAnalytics and GeoEvent Server Patch  Thanks, Sarah ... View more

Hi Jack, Are you still running into this issue with 10.5 final? Thanks, Sarah ... View more

Thank you for submitting a support case. Please remember that no matter where (Portal, REST, Pro) you are running GeoAnalytics tools, you want to be talking to the Server/Portal/Enterprise support team.  Sindre.Enghgeodata-no-esridist Below is an example of being able to see a REST parameter (if you do not see these, then you are running into the issue described above). The most likely cause of this is your machine does not have enough memory - it should have at least 16GB dedicated to GeoAnalytics.   In reply to Ernst Eijkelenboom's comment, I'd also like to note that the Distributed Worker service is not related to GeoAnalytics, please do not get them confused.  ...

Hi Simon, I just tried this workflow using GeoEvent ingested data. I was able to successfully run hot spot analysis using time steps.  Can you please try the following? 1. Create a new map in the Portal Map Viewer (no layers added). 2. Select the Analysis button (beside Basemap) 3. Browse to your GeoAnalytics tool: Find Hot Spots. 4. For the first parameter (the input data) use the browse option to look for your data. Does your input data say time enabled (please see the attached screen shot)? If it does say time-enabled and you do not the see the time parameters enabled, can you please see if this also happens using the GeoAnalytics tool Aggregate Points? If it does, please verify if you see the same behaviour in ArcGIS Pro, and contact technical support. If it does not say time-enabled, can you provide the time info for the layer you are trying to analyze? It should look something like this: "timeInfo": {   "startTimeField": "date_field",   "endTimeField": null,   "timeExtent": [    1484767706250,    1484770049950   ],   "trackIdField": "id",   "timeInterval": 10,   "timeIntervalUnits": "esriTimeUnitsSeconds",   "hasLiveData": true,   "timeReference": {    "timeZone": "UTC",    "respectsDaylightSaving": false   },   "exportOptions": {    "useTime": true,    "timeDataCumulative": false,    "timeOffset": 0,    "timeOffsetUnits": "esriTimeUnitsUnknown"   }  } If the time field does not look similar to this, please verify that your time is set up correctly and/or contact technical support. When contacting technical support, please include inform them of this GeoNet thread in case we need to update it in the future. Thanks, Sarah GeoAnalytics Product Engineer  ... View more

Hi Sindre, Glad to hear you are trying out GeoAnalytics! Can you please verify that your machines with GeoAnalytics Server installed are at least 16GB? If not, please try using a 16 GB machine (do not install spatiotemporal data store on the same machine unless you have the required 16GB for GeoAnalytics and 16 GB for spatiotemporal data store (total 32). If you do have a 16GB machine, can you please check if there are tool parameters are listed at the REST tool endpoint: (url similar to: http://yourGeoAnalyticsMachineName.domain.com/GeoAnalyticsWebAdaptor/rest/services/System/GeoAnalyticsTools/GPServer/AggregatePoints) If there are no parameters listed please restart your GeoAnalytics server through Server Manager of your GeoAnalytics Server, and try running analysis through Pro again (restart your Pro session). If the parameters are listed, and you are still having issues please call technical support, and note this GeoNet post when you open a case so we can update it with the solution.   Thanks, Sarah GeoAnalytics Product Engineer ...

Hi Wentao, That is correct - you can't currently use the Line of Site tools. The list of functions that can be used through GIS Tools for Hadoop are listed here: UDF Documentation · Esri/spatial-framework-for-hadoop Wiki · GitHub . ... View more

Hi Matej, You may also be interested in the following, put out by the team: Randall T. Whitman, Michael B. Park, Sarah M. Ambrose, and Erik G. Hoel. 2014. Spatial indexing and analytics on Hadoop. In Proceedings of the 22nd ACM SIGSPATIAL International Conference on Advances in Geographic Information Systems (SIGSPATIAL '14). ACM, New York, NY, USA, 73-82. DOI=10.1145/2666310.2666387 http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/2666310.2666387 We had a similar questions on the spatial framework repo : Framework Documentation · Issue #82 · Esri/spatial-framework-for-hadoop · GitHub  , so you may want to check if the poster has a public thesis somewhere. Other than that, the links that Abhishek Rathi​ posted, are a great place to start, with this being the first thing I would try out: GIS Tools for Hadoop for Beginners · Esri/gis-tools-for-hadoop Wiki · GitHub If you have any issues, please create an issue in the github repo, and we will help out ASAP. ...

Hi Jeremy, Glad to hear that the aggregation tutorial worked. In the sample (https://github.com/Esri/gis-tools-for-hadoop/tree/master/samples/point-in-polygon-aggregation-hive) point in polygon aggregation you grouped results (group by counties.name) and ended up with a count within counties. To join attributes you will want to remove the group by term, add the attribute fields you are interested in joining, and complete the join, similar to: SELECT counties.name, table.attributestojoinhere FROM counties JOIN earthquakes WHERE ST_Contains(counties.boundaryshape, ST_Point(earthquakes.longitude, earthquakes.latitude)) - Sarah ...

Hi Lorena, You won't see any tools if you go double click on the HadoopTools.pyt. Does you unzipped folder look like this?: I'm going to create an issue on the GitHub site, so we can reference the issue more easily - if it works for you, we can communicate there. The GitHub issue can be found here: X when adding Hadoop tools in 10.2.2 · Issue #12 · Esri/geoprocessing-tools-for-hadoop · GitHub ... View more

Hi Lorena, I wasn’t able to reproduce the problem yet. Can you make sure you completed the following steps: Downloaded the toolbox and files using the “Download Zip” (on the right hand side) button from (https://github.com/Esri/geoprocessing-tools-for-hadoop) Unzipped the downloaded folder by right clicking the .zip, then Extract All In ArcMap, open the tool box, then right clicked, Add Toolbox Select the unzipped .pyt (as shown in your screen shot). If you have completed these steps, and it’s still not working, can you still add the toolbox even though there is an X (and if so can you open the tools)? If the answer is no, can you get tell me the md5 checksum (I’ll tell you how to get this)? To get the checksum, In Cygwin, go to the directory your toolbox is stored in: cd c:/Users/sara/Downloads/geoprocessing-tools-for-hadoop-master/geoprocessing-tools-for-hadoop-master You will then calculate the md5checksum on the toolbox: md5sum HadoopTools.pyt and get something like: e68151f010f1c4908f18eabe91200e25 *HadoopTools.pyt e68151f010f1c4908f18eabe91200e25 is the md5 checksum, and what I am interested in. Let me know if you need any clarifications. Thanks, Sarah ... View more

Hi Lorena,  I haven't been able to reproduce this using  v.10.2.2. What version of Windows are you using, and are you using ArcMap in English (or another language)? Are you able to provide a screen shot of what the problem looks like? Or let me know if it looks similar to this  https://github.com/Esri/geoprocessing-tools-for-hadoop/issues/6 Thanks, Sarah ...
