  24. Community Maps - Workflow

  25. Community Maps Contributor App https://communitymaps.arcgis.com • Apply to be a Data Steward • Who? • Where? (Area of Interest) • What Layers?

  26. Community Maps - Workflow

  27. Preparing Data for Community Maps Output geodatabase Data sources Data Prep Tools

  28. Why Data Prep Tools? • You know your data the best! • Reduce data interpretation errors & review cycles • To make it faster and easier • No need to change source data schema • The tools and process are customizable Like doing your taxes… but much more fun

  29. Data Prep Tools - Prerequisites • ArcGIS for Desktop version 10.1 or higher • Data formats – Shapefile, file/personal geodatabase, ArcSDE geodatabase, CAD or Coverage • Basic ArcMap & geoprocessing tools experience (basic SQL) • Understanding of source data

  30. General Workflow for Data Prep Tools • Download • Make list of layers to contribute • Run Me First Tool • Open theme MXD • Add your data to MXD • Run tool & QA (*AllLayers.mxd) • Repeat 4,5,6 for each theme • Zip Final GDB and upload to CM app

  35. General Workflow for Data Prep Tools • Download • Make list of layers to contribute • Run Me First Tool • Open theme MXD • Add your data to MXD • Run tool & QA (*AllLayers.mxd) • Repeat 4,5,6 for each theme • Zip Final GDB and upload to CM app

  36. Run Me First Tool • Must be run before any other tools • Creates empty template geodatabase with your spatial reference • Adds your organization name for QA purposes • Defines organization name and ISO codes for country and local language

  37. General Workflow for Data Prep Tools • Download • Make list of layers to contribute • Run Me First Tool • Open theme MXD • Add your data to MXD • Run tool & QA (*AllLayers.mxd) • Repeat 4,5,6 for each theme • Zip Final GDB and upload to CM app

  38. Anatomy of Data Prep Tools 2 Most tools require a selection statement (SQL) All tools require source data 1 3 Most tools require a field to label the features in your local language 4 Most tools require a label field for the English translation of your labels

  39. Reviewing data prep with AllLayers.mxd • Map contains layers for all possible Data Prep Tools output • Symbology similar to World Topo Map • Compare migrated layers to each other • Get an idea how your published layers will look in the World Topo Map

  40. Community Maps - Workflow

  41. Community Maps Contributor App https://communitymaps.arcgis.com • Log into CM app • Upload Zipped File Geodatabase • Options for FTP and Hard Drives

  42. Community Maps - Workflow

  43. Community Maps Contributor App https://communitymaps.arcgis.com • Log into CM app • Review preview map service • Approve or Upload new data
