Image Mask is a configurable app template for identifying areas of an image that have changed over time or that meet user-set thresholds for calculated spectral indexes. The template also includes tools for measurement, recording locations, and more.App users can zoom to bookmarked areas of interest (or search for their own), select any of the imagery layers from the associated web map to analyze, use a time slider or dropdown menu to select images, then choose between the Change Detection or Mask tools to produce results.Image Mask users can do the following:Zoom to bookmarked areas of interest (or bookmark their own)Select specific images from a layer to visualize (search by date or another attribute)Use the Change Detection tool to compare two images in a layer (see options, below)Use the Mask tool to highlight areas that meet a user-set threshold for common spectral indexes (NDVI, SAVI, a burn index, and a water index). For example, highlight all the areas in an image with NDVI values above 0.25 to find vegetation.Annotate imagery using editable feature layersPerform image measurement on imagery layers that have mensuration capabilitiesExport an imagery layer to the user's local machine, or as a layer in the user’s ArcGIS accountUse CasesA student investigating urban expansion over time using Esri’s Multispectral Landsat image serviceA farmer using NAIP imagery to examine changes in crop healthAn image analyst recording burn scar extents using satellite imageryAn aid worker identifying regions with extreme drought to focus assistanceChange detection methodsFor each imagery layer, give app users one or more of the following change detection options:Image Brightness (calculates the change in overall brightness)Vegetation Index (NDVI) (requires red and infrared bands)Soil-Adjusted Vegetation Index (SAVI) (requires red and infrared bands)Water Index (requires green and short-wave infrared bands)Burn Index (requires infrared and short-wave infrared bands)For each of the indexes, users also have a choice between three modes:Difference Image: calculates increases and decreases for the full extent Difference Mask: users can focus on significant change by setting the minimum increase or decrease to be masked—for example, a user could mask only areas where NDVI increased by at least 0.2Threshold Mask: The user sets a threshold and magnitude for what is masked as change. The app will only identify change that’s above the user-set lower threshold and bigger than the user-set minimum magnitude.Supported DevicesThis application is responsively designed to support use in browsers on desktops, mobile phones, and tablets.Data RequirementsCreating an app with this template requires a web map with at least one imagery layer.Get Started This application can be created in the following ways:Click the Create a Web App button on this pageShare a map and choose to Create a Web AppOn the Content page, click Create - App - From Template Click the Download button to access the source code.

This layer shows the location of Student Health Service Centres and Special Assessment Centres in Hong Kong. It is a subset of the data made available by the Department of Health under the Government of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the “Government”) at https://DATA.GOV.HK/ (“DATA.GOV.HK”). The source data is in XLSX format and has been processed and converted into Esri File Geodatabase format and then uploaded to Esri’s ArcGIS Online platform for sharing and reference purpose. The objectives are to facilitate our Hong Kong ArcGIS Online users to use the data in a spatial ready format and save their data conversion effort.For details about the data, source format and terms of conditions of usage, please refer to the website of DATA.GOV.HK at https://data.gov.hk.

Needing to answer the question of “where” sat at the forefront of everyone’s mind, and using a geographic information system (GIS) for real-time surveillance transformed possibly overwhelming data into location intelligence that provided agencies and civic leaders with valuable insights.This book highlights best practices, key GIS capabilities, and lessons learned during the COVID-19 response that can help communities prepare for the next crisis.GIS has empowered:Organizations to use human mobility data to estimate the adherence to social distancing guidelinesCommunities to monitor their health care systems’ capacity through spatially enabled surge toolsGovernments to use location-allocation methods to site new resources (i.e., testing sites and augmented care sites) in ways that account for at-risk and vulnerable populationsCommunities to use maps and spatial analysis to review case trends at local levels to support reopening of economiesOrganizations to think spatially as they consider “back-to-the-workplace” plans that account for physical distancing and employee safety needsLearning from COVID-19 also includes a “next steps” section that provides ideas, strategies, tools, and actions to help jump-start your own use of GIS, either as a citizen scientist or a health professional. A collection of online resources, including additional stories, videos, new ideas and concepts, and downloadable tools and content, complements this book.Now is the time to use science and data to make informed decisions for our future, and this book shows us how we can do it.Dr. Este GeraghtyDr. Este Geraghty is the chief medical officer and health solutions director at Esri where she leads business development for the Health and Human Services sector.Matt ArtzMatt Artz is a content strategist for Esri Press.

Esri UK is providing a digital mapping platform and expertise in biodiversity mapping for the National Education Nature Park. We are providing the Department of Education with ArcGIS Online - an extensible web-based mapping platform to provide staff and students with geospatial tools that will allow them to view, capture, store, analyse and monitor environmental and biodiversity data. We are also providing Professional Services to be delivered using an agile methodology, along with training to key stakeholders.To deploy geospatial tools to all schools, we are using the existing ArcGIS for Schools program.

The U.S. Geological Survey has been forecasting sea-level rise impacts on the landscape to evaluate where coastal land will be available for future use. The purpose of this project is to develop a spatially explicit, probabilistic model of coastal response for the Northeastern U.S. to a variety of sea-level scenarios that take into account the variable nature of the coast and provides outputs at spatial and temporal scales suitable for decision support. Model results provide predictions of adjusted land elevation ranges (AE) with respect to forecast sea-levels, a likelihood estimate of this outcome (PAE), and a probability of coastal response (CR) characterized as either static or dynamic. The predictions span the coastal zone vertically from -12 meters (m) to 10 m above mean high water (MHW). Results are produced at a horizontal resolution of 30 meters for four decades (the 2020s, 2030s, 2050s and 2080s). Adjusted elevations and their respective probabilities are generated using regional geospatial datasets of current sea-level forecasts, vertical land movement rates, and current elevation data. Coastal response type predictions incorporate adjusted elevation predictions with land cover data and expert knowledge to determine the likelihood that an area will be able to accommodate or adapt to water level increases and maintain its initial land class state or transition to a new non-submerged state (dynamic) or become submerged (static). Intended users of these data include scientific researchers, coastal planners, and natural resource management communities.
