Hi Everyone, I am hoping to generate some ideas on how I should best handle a weekly update of some GIS data, particularly the attributes. This seems simple enough but I wanted to see what other’s thought. I am working on a project where we have some parcels and each one has a status (with like 9 different options). Each week, we update this status with a new status, but only when it needs updating. The parcels have unique identifiers. We get this info in the form of an Excel sheet (with the unique parcel number and the new status, etc.). So far, I have been manually updating each parcel’s status with the new status since this is the quick and dirty way, but I want to find a more automated solution. Based on this vague information, what are your thoughts on the most efficient way of handling this? Thanks! (to shorten this post, I’ll put some thoughts in a reply below)

Karolina, I just temporarily created a story map to test this out. I had created a Web AppBuilder application of a web map. I created a story map and selected web page (like you did) and put the direct link of my WAB app into the box. This worked for me as I am able to see my WAB app in my newly created story map journal. However... I just tried to add a swipe app map and it just comes up blank. Maybe there is not a way to add the swipe application like I initially thought... It seems that most other web applications work. I am tagging Owen Evans as he would know better.

Hi Karolina, Yes, it is possible to do this without programming. The story map journal can have other story maps inserted into it. All you have to do is reference the swipe map as one of your 'pages' or 'tabs' (or whatever it is called in the map journal). I hope this makes sense.

Where did you obtain a 10.1 license? Is this from an educational institution?

[/beating a dead horse] Is there a way to find out how much consideration some of these ideas get? Or maybe when they get implemented?

It's such a bummer when the quickest way is to not use Python, but easier is easier... I agree with Dan.

Hi Fabien, Check out the remove graphic method from the GraphicsLayer class: GraphicsLayer | API Reference | ArcGIS API for JavaScript

Hi Beh, Could you try the getLayer() method? Graphic | API Reference | ArcGIS API for JavaScript

Shawn, That seems pretty bizarre that the user cannot see the map. Just out of curiosity, if you set the map to public, can the user see it then? If not, then I would think that something is wrong with how the layer is published. Was it published to your server or to ArcGIS Online?

Robert, if this essentially works on GitHub, would it essentially work in a place like Google Drive as well? (I don't mean to hijack this thread...)

Carole, Let me know if you are successful in finding what you need (and maybe you can post back to here to show where exactly you obtained your data).

This question is a duplicate. Find the other thread here - Galápagos Islands shape files

Hi Carole, Wow, it is harder than I thought to grab GIS data for the Galápagos Islands. Take a look at this thread. Someone asks the same question: Vector Data for Galapagos - GIS - CartoTalk http://www.cartotalk.com/index.php?showtopic=8129 You may have luck looking at the sites for World Vector Shoreline: NOAA Shoreline Website And click here to be able to find data to access: Global Self-consistent, Hierarchical, High-resolution Geography Database (GSHHG | NCEI There are also some downloads for Ecuador here that you can look through: Ecuador This thread may help answer your WMS question but, likely you cannot easily do this: python - How to convert WMS to SHP? - Geographic Information Systems Stack Exchange I hope this helps.

Steve, would it help if you posted the entire segment of code so we can see where different variables are being instantiated?

Hi Max, This is an interesting question and I am curious to hear what answers you get. In just 'regular' ArcGIS Online, you cannot change the popup order. In this thread: https://community.esri.com/message/593491#comment-426997 Mike says: No, there is no way to control popup ordering. The order comes from how fast layers can return their popup information. The fastest wins. The popup populates with the first and the rest come in when they return their information We have discussed allowing user defined ordering, but then the popup would have to wait to display its contents until all layers have returned their values. This could make the popup slower.
