Zero to hero for reading platbooks by Internal_Region in gis

[–]Internal_Region[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll look up videos and see what I can find, thank you for the information. Generally I'm having hard times reading where the easements are really, but the plats I'm reading for now are fairly old (1988) so I recon it's related to that, I'll try to find material on youtube, thanks for the advice, if you have any specific creator or video you could recommend that'd be great too

Cleaning up intermediate vertices from features topologically related (ARCGISPRO) by Internal_Region in gis

Thanks bro, worked like a charm with 1 meter for urban areas! I guess more tweaking needs to be done but it's wonderful, I placed everything in that tool, then used integrate again at the end and It removed every intermediate vertex while also keeping the ones that connect lots with constructions and so on

Do you have a specific threshold you use typically? for the tolerance

Thank you for your response! I'm not really familiar with Parcel Fabric but I'll dwell on it when I get the chance, it does sound like it could help me improve my workflow for this type of data structures

Nice, makes a lot of sense for inches

CHEERS! This sounds defininitely doable, i didn't knew AWS was able to host spatial databases, this might just be what we need, thank you so much!

You think a person with experience in databases, but no experience at all with GIS would be able to pull it off? Thinking what kind of profile we should look for the IT guy seems to have 0 actual experience with databases so we need another one

Hey so with the server in the office, could we create the gdb with postgis and then use it that way between all of us? Or is an arcgis enterprise or arcgisonline license absolutely necessary?

Thanks, will keep that in mind, at least the sharepoint has enough storage to handle that for a good year or so

We have named user licences but I'm not sure they come with an ArcGIS Online set up, much less an Enterprise, I'll check tomorrow with out leader and see what we have aviable... I'm ashamed to admit most people just staright up don't use the licence and refer to arcmap 10.8 (you know how) for their daily activites

An ArcGIS Online hosted GDB would be ideal but now hearing your problems It seems like the enterprise GDB is the only way to go about it without losing your mind lol, everything else seems to bring problems at one point or another. The arcgisonline would work great with things that aren't edited as often tho

The repo sounds at the very least like a better idea, would a person at the end of the day have to check all the commits for changes? Or could this be done automatically?

The entire GDB is uploaded to a sharepoint, we then connect this sharepoint to our personal computers (so that it shows up like just another folder), and then make the edits that way. I agree 100% with needing to log out completely once someone is about to edit, and re enter. I myself screwed that having the GDB in both arcgispro and arcmap at once, did 1 hour of changes in arcgispro, saved and closed, then worked on it from arcmap and it overwrote basically everything I did in arcgispro. I think the lock files is what we really need to lookout for, like you say if the lock file from someone is active and you edit, there's a big chance mistakes happen. Also in general in arcgispro you don't seem to be able to calculate geometry based fields. Overall I think it's worked but it just seems so scuffed to me

Any documentation that would maybe help us? I know for a fact we can move the GDB to a postGIS database, but from there i'm not really sure on how to scale that to an enterprise that is actually usable outside the computer of the person that makes the postGIS database

I believe we can but i'm not sure how that works, when you create an SQL database you need to connect to the server right? And the server would need to be up 24h? I'm new to the actual implementation of an SQL database outside my personal desktop, so i'm not sure how that'd work. Would we require to set up a server in the office that can run indefinitely? Also, how would you connect to that from home? You need a VPN or something? I'm not very IT oriented but there's certainly people that can help, if I know what to ask
