Hi Christoper, Yup - you are right. The topic there was updated for 10.5 when standard tools did not yet have Join Features. That topic also covers 10.5.1 but it looks like we missed adding in Join Feature for 10.5.1. Good catch! I've just verified the documentation has been corrected for 10.6. As an alternative, and a great way to check what's new, you can also look at the What's New documentation here: What's new in Portal for ArcGIS 10.5 and 10.5.1—Portal for ArcGIS | ArcGIS Enterprise  Let me know if you have any more questions, - Sarah ...

Hi Christoper, Join Features is available with the standard analysis tools starting at ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5.1. You can read more about it here: Join Features—Portal for ArcGIS | ArcGIS Enterprise  Please let me know if you have any more questions. Sarah Product Engineer, GeoAnalytics ... View more

Hi Ryan, It sound like there may have been an issue upgrading your server. Did you upgrade all the machines in your GeoAnalytics server site? Did you unfederate your GeoAnalytics server before upgrading (you don't need to)? I would recommend calling into Esri Technical Support, they'll be able to do a better job supporting you in this case - where a screen share will be helpful.  Thanks, Sarah Ambrose Product Engineer, GeoAnalytics Server ...

Hi Justine, The quick answer is no, you can not run any Pro tool distributed on your GeoAnalytics Server. GeoAnalytics Server is a designated ArcGIS Server for distributed processing.  You can run GeoAnalytics tools on that server (at 10.5.1 there are 11 tools that run on the GeoAnalytics server) outlined here. GeoAnalytics tools are exposed in and can be run from ArcGIS Pro, Map Viewer in Portal, the REST API or the ArcGIS Python API. All of those clients run GeoAnalytics tools on the GeoAnalytics Server. Only tools in the GeoAnalytics toolbox are run on the GeoAnalytics Server. If you were to open up ArcGIS Pro, and run the GeoAnalytics tool Create Space Time Cube, that would run on the GeoAnalytics Server. If you ran the Create Space Time Cube By Aggregating Points tool in the Space Time Pattern Mining toolbox, that would run the tool using the machine ArcGIS Pro is installed on. The image below shows the tools that are run using GeoAnalytics. These tools have specifically been developed to distribute the analysis across the cores and machines on your GeoAnalytics Server.    Please let me know if that doesn’t clarify the situation. If you’re able to point to the help documentation or technical workshops that you watched that didn’t clarify this, please do and we’ll make sure to improve them for the future. Thanks, Sarah Ambrose Product Engineer, GeoAnalytics Team ... View more

Hi, can you please provide a screenshot of the REST endpoint for the Generate Manifest tool. From your comment above I can't tell if the parameters are populating or not. What language are you running GeoAnalytics in? (OS, Server language pack, portal etc)? -Sarah ... View more

Hi, Can you check the the parameters are available at the REST endpoint. To do this go to:  https://<your geoanalytics machine.domain.com>/<geoanalytics web adaptor>/rest/services/System/GeoAnalyticsManagement/GenerateManifest There you should see a list of parameters (such as action, dataStoreItemId, and a few more). If you do not see these parameters, try and restart the GeoAnalytics Management tool box using admin at: https://<your geoanalytics machine.domain.com>/<geoanalytics web adaptor>/admin/services/System/GeoAnalyticsManagement then use the stop button, once that is comepleted, use the start button. If the parameters still don't show up please contact support, and we'll make sure to update the solution here once we figure out the problem.  -Sarah ... View more

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 ...
