The question of reinforcing and/or undermining the principle of Freedom of Information depends wholly on what your data is depicting. If your data/map/application is simply providing information regarding public parks, utilities, etc. there is very little to mask in the way of information. On the other hand, if your data/map/application is dealing directly with personal information or data that could be considered 'sensitive' in a security perspective that is a completely different matter all together.

I have had this out on GeoNet for about a month now. My issue is the 'Base simliarity on' section. I understand that it is currently only based on fields that are numerical, but I think that it could be used far better if the tool could be filtered by all of the data provided. In my case, the majority of my fields are text based due to either leading zeroes or the actual entry being text characters such as 'GG' for 'Good Golf' view. My post in GeoNet can be seen at: https://geonet.esri.com/thread/175515 I will be at the UC this summer and will be at the help island to bring up the issue as well. Thank you!

I have been struggling with my data since the last post. Due to the numbering/code structure I can't make the field a numerical string because of the leading zeroes. The rest of the fields that I would like to base the filters on are text fields as well and are populated with text characters such as 'GG' which stands for 'Good Golf' view. Like I said in my original post, if the "Base similarity on' could be based on any field type this would be an awesome tool.

Thanks for the response Kelly! I think I can change the fields that I need to a numerical value, but the data does not initially come that way from our tax system. Some fields were created 15 years ago as text fields because of leading zeroes such as our Taxability Codes, Land Use Codes, etc. that are two to four digit strings. I honestly don't know what will happen if I change the data type to double, although I will give it a shot probably next week. I have other fields that appraisal staff would like to use as criteria for analysis such as our Community field which is a 3 character text string. A good example of an analysis would be selecting an individual parcel, and then doing an analysis of nearby parcels (current map extent) based on a Land Use Code. Our Commercial division was hoping to do an analysis using this exact criteria. Is there a chance that the 'Base similarity on' could be set to utilize any data type?

You have gotten further than I have Samantha. We did both clear our cache, but still were getting the same error. Right now I think we are all sticking to IE while working on the apps.

Hi Samantha, no it hasn't been resolved yet. Unfortunately my office uses Google Chrome more often than IE, and that seems to be where the problem lies. I did find that when I use the map in web application though there isn't a problem with the background. I wanted one of our programmers to have access to the map itself because she wanted to do a bunch of testing with it.

Kelly, unfortunately I can't share the map due to the tax information that it contains. The underlying basemap is the standard ESRI 'Streets', and it appears that I'm not the only one having that problem. The problem does seem to be centered around Google Chrome though.

I am trying to work with the 'Find Similar Locations' analysis tool in ArcGIS Online, and I have a question about 'Base similarity on' section: The options that appear are only a small fraction of the fields within my database, and after a bit of comparing I have found that the fields all have a data type of 'Double'. Is there a reason for this? Is there a work-around or a way to have all fields show? The returned options severely limit the comparison, and make the tool pretty much useless for me. If all of the fields within my database were present this would be an awesome tool! As always, thank you for any suggestions or insight in advance!

Hi Kelly, Once again I have fallen victim to user error It turns out that my data store folders were not registered correctly. Once I fixed that my service is now a very manageable 8kb. Thank you for replying!

I am struggling with maintaining a reasonable file size when creating a map service/feature layer. I will begin with saying that I am very new to this, and have only been working with ArcGIS Online for a couple of weeks now. I am creating a pgdb that includes my parcel base as a feature class. This includes a set of data that has been requested by our appraisal staff so that they can perform different queries in a web application. After being published as a map service, the total size is 285Mb which is far bigger than I would like to have it since it is eating up 70 credits a month for storage. Is there a simple way to compact this data? I have tried using a zipped database, which compacts the data to 70Mb, but when it is used as a map service it returns to it's original 285Mb size. Unfortunately I cannot attach the data due to it's contents. As always, thank you for any suggestions or insight in advance!

Hi Kelly, Unfortunately I can't share the map outside of our office because it shares sensitive tax-payer data. I will be creating an application using a similar map in the future that will not contain this data for public use, but that doesn't really help me in this instance. I think that for now avoiding editing the map in Chrome or Firefox is our best option. Thank you for all of your help!

Adrian, I use IE primarily when I'm working with ArcGIS Online. When we are having network issues I will change up browsers to Chrome, but that's pretty rare. I have convinced the person that is using the map to use IE, so I will try getting her to clear her cache or using the incognito tab although it seems to me that she shouldn't have this issue at all. I was able to open the map in IE and Chrome, but had issues in Firefox. We are located in Northern California, and our network is normally stable.

Hi Dan, Unfortunately, this is not a basemap that I created, it is the standard ESRI 'Streets' basemap. Thanks for responding!

‎03-31-2016

Hi Adrian, The basemap is the standard ESRI 'Streets' basemap, we really don't need anything more elaborate at this stage for what she is doing. Thank you for responding!
