Video

Pokemon gen 2 would make for an interesting video. That moment after you get into Kanto and pull up the map to see the entirety of gen 1 there, but with minor tweaks/changes to explore?

I like the idea that "overworlds" are special because they are kind of like metro maps (abstracted and loosely scaled), but designed and drawn in such a way that the actual terrain itself seems to simply *be* that way by happenstance.

Checked the rest of your channel and it's... ArcGIS tutorials. I may as well partake in those, my GIS game is rusty as hell.

Ohhh man, I remember being absent from school and staying home sick a few days when I was in elementary school. I was playing og NES Metroid and eventually the game slipped into my fever dreams and I was having nightmares about being lost in Norfair. 😂😅

i dont even agree that it was one of the "strongest early iterations of automapping".. Ultima Underworld came out in 92 and the automap in that game was god tier

You have the best voice for making stuff like this. It's not demanding or overly energetic. It fits the informative yet still happy mood. Keep up the great vids

Super Metroid best Metroid

Great video! I'm been in a Metroid mood lately and scratched that itch!

I was searching for blend modes and found your channel. Great use case with the smoke. Interesting you mention hurricane wind swaths, I was thinking of the same thing.

Nice

nice

Great Tutorial! Thanks! Just as a side note: In the current version of the API, an item class will be returned directly. You can then avoid the search function and be 100% sure that you delete only the temporarily created item: temp_export_result_item = item.export("random_title", "File Geodatabase", parameters=None, wait=True) temp_export_result_item.delete()

FYI to everyone: Creating your batch files, if you have spaces in your paths, make sure to enclose them in quotation marks: "C:/Program Files/.........."

Well done Aaron! I found your tutorial very interesting and useful. A few months ago, I was looking to write a simple Python script to back up a hosted feature layer used by our field workers for inspection of road assets using the ArcGIS Field Maps mobile app. I achieved this task using ModelBuilder instead. However, in my workflow, I have performed some steps. The first step was to make a backup of the Hosted Feature Layer. The second step was to join the asset feature layer and the inspection table an extract the joined feature layer to an Excel file. The last step was to truncate the inspection table. So I successfully completed the first step by following your tutorial. I'm trying to code the last two steps, unfortunately I'm having trouble with my code. But I will try again, until I succeed. Thanks again for this tutorial, it's really appreciated! Kind regards,

Hey, Aaron, this is great! I successfully followed through, did my first python script. Thank you very much!

Awesome!! Thank you

very clear video with a very practical case study. Thank you for this!

Very helpful, thanks - I will give it a go!

That's an amazing video. Thank you so much!

Thanks for this awesome tutorial that’s super easy to follow for people that don’t know how to code. So many tutorials skip over the basics and speak in advanced technical jargon. This was great!

Howdy, I encountered this error when running the script: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'arcgis' Is there a way to fix this? Thanks

Thanks for the post Aaron, I've got a question for you and fellow python wizards. With the availability of Notebook for ArcGIS Online, you can run the python script from within ArcGIS Online. My question is, rather than export to an external location (e.g. S:/Documents/Backup/) how would you export to a place folder directly within ArcGIS Online? For example, "Location Tracks" stores location info but only for 30 days. Currently I am manually exporting the data as a csv file every 2 weeks or so, so that I have a permanent record. I'm happy for the csv to reside in AGOL but how do I schedule an export that adds a new item to a folder within AGOL?

Hello Aaron, Thank you, Great video. I am wondering whether it is possible to access all the hosted feature layers from the ArcGIS portal using Python API, I have accessed the feature layers but my goal is to access only the hosted feature layers in the portal.

Great tutorial. If we have WFS service over hosted feature layer, will be also wfs service updated?

Any guidance on getting around (Error Code: 403)? Accessing data I don't own but is shared with me Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 16, in <module> File "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3\lib\site-packages\arcgis\gis\__init__.py", line 8808, in export res = self._portal.con.post(data_path, params) File "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3\lib\site-packages\arcgis\gis\_impl\_con\_connection.py", line 720, in post force_bytes=kwargs.pop('force_bytes', False)) File "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3\lib\site-packages\arcgis\gis\_impl\_con\_connection.py", line 514, in _handle_response self._handle_json_error(data['error'], errorcode) File "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3\lib\site-packages\arcgis\gis\_impl\_con\_connection.py", line 536, in _handle_json_error raise Exception(errormessage) Exception: You do not have permissions to access this resource or perform this operation. (Error Code: 403)

This is great!!! Very easy to understand and use

sound like daily dose of Internet :/

Nice content. 🌟 You deserve more views. Do you know of PromoSM??! You should use it to help get your videos seen.

i'm a newbie to all this, but i ran the code and it worked great the first time. i have 12 feature layers, what would change in the code to do all of them at once. is it just adding the different item id for each layer or is there more to it. thanks for the video easiest one to under stand i seen.

This is really great, thank you so much for sharing. I was able to adapt your script easily to download all authoritative hosted feature layers in my content. I added to the query: myFeatureCollections=gis.content.search(query="contentstatus:org_authoritative",item_type="Feature Layer Collection",max_items=1000). Then I stuck it in a for loop with some try/exception rules to capture everything. Works so well. Thank you thank you thank you

Hi Aaron, great video I am able to understand relatively fine even as a newbie. I followed your script on arcpy as I'm using Arcgis pro. I recon I don't need the "from arcgis.gis import GIS" import module so I took that out (That's the only difference). However, I get a Traceback error File "<string>", line 10, in <module> File "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3\lib\site-packages\arcgis\gis\__init__.py", line 339, in __init__ raise e - - - "json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)" I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. Would so appreciate your help here. Thanks

Thank you very easy to understand. Now to figure out how to do it with data I am creating from an API call. Thinking API -> csv -> overwrite or something like that

Fantastic job on the description and process. For someone new to Python, I found this very helpful and guiding. I did tweak it for my need of automating backup of all feature layers that we have online. I performed a list search for all feature layers and then did a loop of the export process for each item of that list. I also added a prompt for the username and password at the start. username = input('ArcGIS Online Username: ') password = input('ArcGIS Online Password: ') It took a long time to process all those layers we have online but now I can run that weekly or so and have regular backups of all the online data. Thank you for taking the time to make this video.

Man that was awesome, thanks a lot.

Hi Aaron -- thanks for the video, but that's not actually why I'm leaving this note. It's regarding your paperback rebinding video. No doubt you got lots of negative feedback from "real" bookbinders. I thought your approach was creative and good-looking, even if there were 3 or 4 or 5 small to medium shortcomings in the execution. If you're still interested in the possibilities, you might want to check out a video series called "Men in Sheds" (one of the subjects is a gifted art bookbinder).

Super helpful video, thanks for sharing!

Great job! It would be even more helpful to have an example of the process to add new rows to an existing hosted feature layer.

Please note toward the end, when setting up the Task Scheduler, to choose 'Windows 10' at the bottom of the first tab for "Configure for:" right around the 55:40 mark. In my video it was set to Windows Vista and Server 2008 by default, which will prevent the task and script from running properly.

This is awesome - please make more videos like this, as you say - very little content in the way of tutorials for this kind of thing!

Thank you so much for great video. Can you please make a video how do you automate for CAD-files. And for files that have different projections system. Thanks in advance.!!!

Thank you so much for the tutorial! It enabled me to implement an auto-update of a feature layer collection in our web map.

Thanks, Aaron! Would you mind creating a GitHub repository to share the codes?

Hello Aaron, Nice work I wanna send email when feature is added in feature service? Kindly help me if you have any experience in this regards!

Thank you, Thank you!!!! This is extremely useful.

Hello, I get the following errors when I try to do this tutorial: error 1: [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed - un = gis.properties.user.username error 2: gis: GIS Method 'properties' has no 'user' memberpylint(no-member) - dataItem = gis.content.get(itemid) error 3: gis: GIS Method 'content' has no 'get' memberpylint(no-member) I am doing the tutorial with the latest version of Python, ArcGIS, and Visual Studio Code. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Aaron great video! Can you show us how to download data from AGOL using scripts? Thanks man!

great tutorial! just wondering, does the workflow still apply if i use google sheets?

Thank you so much Aaron for sharing this video

Great tutorial!!! I've been trying to find help on doing both of these things for a couple years now! hahah This was very helpful and clear! Thanks!
