    Description

    ArcGIS is a platform, and the platform is extending to the web. ArcGIS Online offers shared content, and has become a living atlas of the world. Ready-to-use curated content is published by Esri, Partners, and Users, and Esri is getting the ball rolling by offering authoritative data layers and tools.Specifically for Natural Resources data, Esri is offering foundational data useful for biogeographic analysis, natural resource management, land use planning and conservation. Some of the layers available are Land Cover, Wilderness Areas, Soils Range Production, Soils Frost Free Days, Watershed Delineation, Slope. The layers are available as Image Services that are analysis-ready and Geoprocessing Services that extract data for download and perform analysis.We've made large strides with online analysis. The latest release of ArcGIS Online's map viewer allows you to perform analysis on ArcGIS Online. Some of the currently available analysis tools are Find Hot Spots, Create Buffers, Summarize Within, Summarize Nearby. In addition, we've created Ready-to-use Esri hosted analysis tools that run on Esri hosted data. These are in Beta, and they include Watershed Delineation, Viewshed, Profile, and Summarize Elevation.

    Description

    The map layers in this service provide color-coded maps of the traffic conditions you can expect for the present time (the default). The map shows present traffic as a blend of live and typical information. Live speeds are used wherever available and are established from real-time sensor readings. Typical speeds come from a record of average speeds, which are collected over several weeks within the last year or so. Layers also show current incident locations where available. By changing the map time, the service can also provide past and future conditions. Live readings from sensors are saved for 12 hours, so setting the map time back within 12 hours allows you to see a actual recorded traffic speeds, supplemented with typical averages by default. You can choose to turn off the average speeds and see only the recorded live traffic speeds for any time within the 12-hour window. Predictive traffic conditions are shown for any time in the future.The color-coded traffic map layer can be used to represent relative traffic speeds; this is a common type of a map for online services and is used to provide context for routing, navigation, and field operations. A color-coded traffic map can be requested for the current time and any time in the future. A map for a future request might be used for planning purposes.The map also includes dynamic traffic incidents showing the location of accidents, construction, closures, and other issues that could potentially impact the flow of traffic. Traffic incidents are commonly used to provide context for routing, navigation and field operations. Incidents are not features; they cannot be exported and stored for later use or additional analysis.Data sourceEsri’s typical speed records and live and predictive traffic feeds come directly from HERE (www.HERE.com). HERE collects billions of GPS and cell phone probe records per month and, where available, uses sensor and toll-tag data to augment the probe data collected. An advanced algorithm compiles the data and computes accurate speeds. The real-time and predictive traffic data is updated every five minutes through traffic feeds.Data coverageThe service works globally and can be used to visualize traffic speeds and incidents in many countries. Check the service coverage web map to determine availability in your area of interest. Look at the coverage map to learn whether a country currently supports traffic. The support for traffic incidents can be determined by identifying a country. For detailed information on this service, visit the directions and routing documentation and the ArcGIS Help.SymbologyTraffic speeds are displayed as a percentage of free-flow speeds, which is frequently the speed limit or how fast cars tend to travel when unencumbered by other vehicles. The streets are color coded as follows:Green (fast): 85 - 100% of free flow speedsYellow (moderate): 65 - 85%Orange (slow); 45 - 65%Red (stop and go): 0 - 45%To view live traffic only—that is, excluding typical traffic conditions—enable the Live Traffic layer and disable the Traffic layer. (You can find these layers under World/Traffic > [region] > [region] Traffic). To view more comprehensive traffic information that includes live and typical conditions, disable the Live Traffic layer and enable the Traffic layer.ArcGIS Online organization subscriptionImportant Note:The World Traffic map service is available for users with an ArcGIS Online organizational subscription. To access this map service, you'll need to sign in with an account that is a member of an organizational subscription. If you don't have an organizational subscription, you can create a new account and then sign up for a 30-day trial of ArcGIS Online.

    Description

    In this course, you will explore a variety of open-source technologies for working with geosptial data, performing spatial analysis, and undertaking general data science. The first component of the class focuses on the use of QGIS and associated technologies (GDAL, PROJ, GRASS, SAGA, and Orfeo Toolbox). The second component of the class introduces Python and associated open-source libraries and modules (NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, Seaborn, GeoPandas, Rasterio, WhiteboxTools, and Scikit-Learn) used by geospatial scientists and data scientists. We also provide an introduction to Structured Query Language (SQL) for performing table and spatial queries. This course is designed for individuals that have a background in GIS, such as working in the ArcGIS environment, but no prior experience using open-source software and/or coding. You will be asked to work through a series of lecture modules and videos broken into several topic areas, as outlined below. Fourteen assignments and the required data have been provided as hands-on opportunites to work with data and the discussed technologies and methods. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to contact us. We hope to continue to update and improve this course. This course was produced by West Virginia View (http://www.wvview.org/) with support from AmericaView (https://americaview.org/).

    Description

    RTB Maps is a cloud-based electronic Atlas. We used ArGIS 10 for Desktop with Spatial Analysis Extension, ArcGIS 10 for Server on-premise, ArcGIS API for Javascript, IIS web services based on .NET, and ArcGIS Online combining data on the cloud with data and applications on our local server to develop an Atlas that brings together many of the map themes related to development of roots, tubers and banana crops. The Atlas is structured to allow our participating scientists to understand the distribution of the crops and observe the spatial distribution of many of the obstacles to production of these crops. The Atlas also includes an application to allow our partners to evaluate the importance of different factors when setting priorities for research and development. The application uses weighted overlay analysis within a multi-criteria decision analysis framework to rate the importance of factors when establishing geographic priorities for research and development.Datasets of crop distribution maps, agroecology maps, biotic and abiotic constraints to crop production, poverty maps and other demographic indicators are used as a key inputs to multi-objective criteria analysis.Further metadata/references can be found here: http://gisweb.ciat.cgiar.org/RTBmaps/DataAvailability_RTBMaps.htmlDISCLAIMER, ACKNOWLEDGMENTS AND PERMISSIONS:This service is provided by Roots, Tubers and Bananas CGIAR Research Program as a public service.

    Description

    This land cover data set is derived from the original raster based Globcover regional (Africa) archive. It has been post-processed to generate a vector version at national extent with the LCCS regional legend (46 classes). This database can be analyzed in the GLCN software Advanced Database Gateway (ADG), which provides a user-friendly interface and advanced functionalities to breakdown the LCCS classes in their classifiers for further aggregations and analysis.

    The data set is intended for free public access.

    The shape file's attributes contain the following fields: -Area (sqm) -ID -Gridcode (Globcover cell value) -LCCCode (unique LCCS code)

    You can download a zip archive containing: -the shape file (.shp) -the ArcGis layer file with global legend (.lyr) -the ArcView 3 legend file (.avl) -the LCCS legend tables (.xls)

    Supplemental Information:

    This land cover product is a vector version (ESRI shape) of the Globcover archive that was published in 2008 as result of an initiative launched in 2004 by the European Space Agency (ESA). Globcover is currently the most recent (2005) and resoluted (300 m) datasets on land cover globally. Given the need of this valuable information for environmental studies, natural resources management and policy formulation, through activities of the Global Land Cover Network (GLCN) programme, the Globcover has been reprocessed to generate databases at national extent that can be analyzed through the Advanced Database Gateway software (ADG) by GLCN. ADG is a cross-cutting interrogation software that allows the easy and fast recombination of land cover polygons according to the individual end-user requirements. Aggregated land cover classes can be generated not only by name, but also using the set of existing classifiers. ADG uses land cover data with a Land Cover Classification System (LCCS) legend. The ADG software is available for download on the GLCN web site at http://www.glcn.org/sof_7_en.jsp

    Contact points:

    Metadata Contact: FAO-Data

    Resource Contact: Antonio Martucci

    Data lineage:

    This land cover database is provided as ESRI shape file (vector format) and derives from reprocessing the raster based Globcover database (regional version). Globcover has undergone the following process: a) vectoralization at the national extent using ESRI ArcGis (arcinfo) 9.3; b) topological reconstruction (custom AML scripts launched inside ArcGis-arcinfo 9.3); c) simplification of areas according to a minimum mapping unit of 0.1 skim (10 ha) (custom AML scripts launched inside ArcGis-arcinfo 9.3); application of the FAO/UNEP Land Cover Classification System (LCCS) legend (46 classes); final processing to assure full compatibility with the GLCN software Advanced Database Gateway (ADG).

    Description

    This land cover data set is derived from the original raster based Globcover regional (Africa) archive. It has been post-processed to generate a vector version at national extent with the LCCS regional legend (46 classes). This database can be analyzed in the GLCN software Advanced Database Gateway (ADG), which provides a user-friendly interface and advanced functionalities to breakdown the LCCS classes in their classifiers for further aggregations and analysis.

    The data set is intended for free public access.

    The shape file's attributes contain the following fields: -Area (sqm) -ID -Gridcode (Globcover cell value) -LCCCode (unique LCCS code)

    You can download a zip archive containing: -the shape file (.shp) -the ArcGis layer file with global legend (.lyr) -the ArcView 3 legend file (.avl) -the LCCS legend tables (.xls)

    Supplemental Information:

    This land cover product is a vector version (ESRI shape) of the Globcover archive that was published in 2008 as result of an initiative launched in 2004 by the European Space Agency (ESA). Globcover is currently the most recent (2005) and resoluted (300 m) datasets on land cover globally. Given the need of this valuable information for environmental studies, natural resources management and policy formulation, through activities of the Global Land Cover Network (GLCN) programme, the Globcover has been reprocessed to generate databases at national extent that can be analyzed through the Advanced Database Gateway software (ADG) by GLCN. ADG is a cross-cutting interrogation software that allows the easy and fast recombination of land cover polygons according to the individual end-user requirements. Aggregated land cover classes can be generated not only by name, but also using the set of existing classifiers. ADG uses land cover data with a Land Cover Classification System (LCCS) legend.

    Description

    SUMMARYThe area (in hectares) of publicly accessible blue- and green-space per 1000 population within each Middle Layer Super Output Area (MSOA).This dataset was produced to identify how much green/blue space (areas with greenery and/or inland water) people have to opportunity to experience within each MSOA. This includes land that the public can directly access and land they are able to walk/cycle/etc. immediately adjacent to.The area of accessible green/blue space, as a percentage of the total area of the MSOA, is also given.ANALYSIS METHODOLOGYThe following were identified as ‘accessible’ blue and green spaces:A) CRoW Open Access LandB) Doorstep GreensC) Open Greenspace (features described as a ‘play space’, ‘playing field’ or ‘public park or garden’)D) Local Nature ReservesE) Millennium GreensF) National Nature ReservesG) ‘Green’ and ‘blue’ land types – inland water, tidal water, woodland, foreshore, countryside/fields – and Open Greenspace types not identified in Point C that are immediately adjacent to*:G1) Coastal Path RoutesG2) National Cycle Network (traffic-free routes only)G3) National Forest Estate recreation routesG4) National TrailsG5) Path networks within built up areas (OS MasterMap Highways Network Paths)G6) Public Rights of Way*Features G1-6 were buffered by 20 m. All land described in Point G that fell within those 20 m buffers was extracted. Of those areas, any land that was >3m away from features G1-6 in its entirety was assumed to have non-green/blue features between the public path/route/trail and it, and was therefore removed.Population statistics for each MSOA were combined with the statistics re. the area of accessible green/blue space, to calculate the area of accessible green-blue space per 1000 population.LIMITATIONS1. Access to beaches and the sea could not be factored into the analysis, and should be considered when interpreting the results for MSOAs on the coastline.2. This dataset highlights were there are opportunities for the public to experience green/blue space. It does not (and could not) determine the level of accessibility for users with differing levels of mobility.3. Public Right of Way (PRoW) data was not available for the whole of England. While some gaps in the data will have been partially filled in by the OS MasterMap Highways Network Paths dataset, due to overlap between the two, some gaps will still remain. As such, this dataset should be viewed in combination with the ‘Area of accessible green and blue space per 1000 population (England): Missing data’ dataset in ArcGIS Online or, if using the data in desktop GIS, the ‘NoProwData’ field should be consulted. The area of accessible green/blue space in those areas could be slightly under represented in this dataset.

    Description

    This map contains a dynamic traffic map service with capabilities for visualizing traffic speeds relative to free-flow speeds as well as traffic incidents which can be visualized and identified. The traffic data is updated every five minutes. Traffic speeds are displayed as a percentage of free-flow speeds, which is frequently the speed limit or how fast cars tend to travel when unencumbered by other vehicles. The streets are color coded as follows:Green (fast): 85 - 100% of free flow speedsYellow (moderate): 65 - 85%Orange (slow); 45 - 65%Red (stop and go): 0 - 45%Esri's historical, live, and predictive traffic feeds come directly from TomTom (www.tomtom.com). Historical traffic is based on the average of observed speeds over the past year. The live and predictive traffic data is updated every five minutes through traffic feeds. The color coded traffic map layer can be used to represent relative traffic speeds; this is a common type of a map for online services and is used to provide context for routing, navigation and field operations. The traffic map layer contains two sublayers: Traffic and Live Traffic. The Traffic sublayer (shown by default) leverages historical, live and predictive traffic data; while the Live Traffic sublayer is calculated from just the live and predictive traffic data only. A color coded traffic map can be requested for the current time and any time in the future. A map for a future request might be used for planning purposes. The map also includes dynamic traffic incidents showing the location of accidents, construction, closures and other issues that could potentially impact the flow of traffic. Traffic incidents are commonly used to provide context for routing, navigation and field operations. Incidents are not features; they cannot be exported and stored for later use or additional analysis. The service works globally and can be used to visualize traffic speeds and incidents in many countries. Check the service coverage web map to determine availability in your area of interest. In the coverage map, the countries color coded in dark green support visualizing live traffic. The support for traffic incidents can be determined by identifying a country. For detailed information on this service, including a data coverage map, visit the directions and routing documentation and ArcGIS Help.

    Description

    This data contains general information about Pedestrian Network in Hong Kong. Pedestrian Network is a set of 3D line features derived from road features and road furniture from Lands Department and Transport Department. A number of attributes are associated with the pedestrian network such as spatially related street names. Besides, the pedestrian network includes information like wheelchair accessibility and obstacles to facilitate the digital inclusion for the needy. Please refer to this video to learn how to use 3D Pedestrian Network Dataset in ArcGIS Pro to facilitate your transportation analysis.The data was provided in the formats of JSON, GML and GDB by Lands Department and downloaded via GEODATA.GOV.HK website.

    The original data files were processed and converted into an Esri file geodatabase. Wheelchair accessibility, escalator/lift, staircase walking speed and street gradient were used to create and build a network dataset in order to demonstrate basic functions for pedestrian network and routing analysis in ArcMap and ArcGIS Pro. There are other tables and feature classes in the file geodatabase but they are not included in the network dataset, users have to consider the use of information based on their requirements and make necessary configurations. The coordinate system of this dataset is Hong Kong 1980 Grid.

    The objectives of uploading the network dataset to ArcGIS Online platform are to facilitate our Hong Kong ArcGIS users to utilize the data in a spatial ready format and save their data conversion effort.

    For details about the schema and information about the content and relationship of the data, please refer to the data dictionary provided by Lands Department at https://geodata.gov.hk/gs/download-datadict/201eaaee-47d6-42d0-ac81-19a430f63952.
