Open Fields is Cloudpoint's offering for assessing farmland value using ArcGIS Pro. In addition to using GIS data layers such as parcels, land use classification, and soils, the tool uses data tables provided on an annual basis by the Illinois Department of Revenue (Publication 122-Instructions for Farmland Assessments). The tables, and how they relate to farmland assessment in Open Fields, are described below.

As of June 2024, ArcGIS Online supports creating custom web tools directly from ArcGIS Notebooks. This integration allows users to develop Python scripts and publish them as custom tools that can seamlessly run within ArcGIS Web Maps and other ArcGIS web applications like Experience Builder.

There are multiple ways to establish an efficient editing workflow in both ArcGIS Online and Portal for ArcGIS. The choice of workflow depends on the specific use case and user preference. One effective approach is to generate dynamic URLs within pop-ups, allowing users to seamlessly transition from a web map to an Experience Builder application for feature editing.

We are happy to report that our first showcase in Ohio was a resounding success!

Sunny Dublin greeted our travelers for a wonderful day of networking, education, and knowledge exchange.

The ArcGIS Data Interoperability extension, available from Esri as an add-on for ArcGIS Pro, is a powerful tool for GIS professionals. It offers an impressive suite of features for data integration, transformation, and automation. Built on Safe Software’s Feature Manipulation (FME) technology (https://www.safe.com/) , this extension provides a Visual Development Environment (VDE) for designing custom Export, Transform, and Load (ETL) workflows.

ArcGIS Field Maps and Survey123 are some of the most common applications users leverage to digitize their inspection processes. Field Maps makes it easy for users to create and edit new features, while Survey123 is often specifically used to publish surveys that serve as digital inspection forms for those individual features. When used in tandem in this way, the strengths of both applications can be available for users in the field.

School districts and Statewide 9-1-1 administrators across the country are recognizing the need to increase the accuracy of floor plan data for their school buildings to provide vital information to ensure effective emergency planning and response. Many states are providing funding to help school districts transition away from static hard copy maps and floorplans towards dynamic, interactive GIS maps. To this end, Cloudpoint Geospatial is conducting surveys

Esri’s Web AppBuilder application is on its way out, so now is the time to find a way to recreate apps and workflows using their Experience Builder application. One popular widget in Web AppBuilder is the Smart Editor Widget. The Smart Editor allows for advanced editing configurations like creating auto calculations between different layers and dynamically configuring attributes to be hidden, required, or disabled. The solution to transition this widget to Experience Builder

Enterprise Asset Management systems (or EAM) help organizations manage their physical assets throughout their lifecycle. ArcGIS Indoors enables those assets to be located, queried, tracked, and navigated to in a centralized map database. Integrating these two technologies provides a single pane of glass through which to visualize and manage an organization's building assets.
