Satellites help understand what fuels the twilight zone

The deep, dark twilight zone a kilometre down in the ocean is home to most of the world’s fish, but how they get enough food has largely been a mystery. Now, thanks to satellites and floating sensors, scientists have worked out how much energy is being pumped to the depths.

Likvidace vysloužilých družic v rámci iniciativy CleanSat

V následující dekádě se vydají na oběžné dráhy kolem Země stovky družic: zvláště v případě, že se realitou stanou komerční megakonstelace satelitů. ESA proto už dnes pracuje na tom, aby tento bezprecedentní nárůst kosmické populace nespustil lavinu nekontrolovaného a nekontrolovatelného množství kosmické tříště.

Novinky na ArcGIS Online – září 2016

Zářijová aktualizace ArcGIS Online přinesla několik změn, které se týkají nejen prostředí ArcGIS Online, ale také řady aplikací, které s ArcGIS Online souvisí.

Všechny aplikace na dosah

Na domovské stránce nově naleznete ikonu, která je rozcestníkem pro další aplikace.

Podpora OGC formátů

V aktuální verzi došlo k rozšíření podpory OGC formátů. Uživatelé, kteří pracují s WMS, WMTS a WFS službami, tak mohou ke službám připojit vlastní parametry, jako je například přístupové heslo. Při přidávání WMS služby do mapového prohlížeče je navíc možné zvolit jen požadovanou vrstvu a není nutné přidávat kompletní službu.

Mapový prohlížeč

Práce v mapovém prohlížeči nabízí více parametrů pro filtrování dat s časovými údaji.  Ve stylech pro vykreslení vrstvy najdete novou barevnou škálu pro vykreslování jednopásmových snímků. Velkou a opravdu užitečnou novinkou je možnost nastavit viditelnost popisků v závislosti na měřítku. Díky tomu lze zlepšit přehlednost mapy v malých i velkých měřítkách.

Konfigurovatelné aplikace

Geo Tour je nová šablona, která umožní připravit prohlídku mapy. Prohlídka se řídí uspořádaným seznamem, který může být založen na jakémkoliv atributu. Můžete tedy například představit 10 nejlepších míst apod.

Styler je další šablonou konfigurovatelné aplikace, která poskytuje možnost snadno měnit vlastnosti aplikace, jako je změna barvy, rozložení panelů nebo uživatelských komponent.

Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS

Nové možností naleznete i u těchto widgetů pro Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS:

• Editace – editovat je možné i relačně navázané prvky.
• Hledání – je možné přidat lokální vyhledávání.
• Near Me – nyní lze odstranit vrstvy, ve kterých nejsou obsaženy žádné výsledky vyhledávání.
• 3D widgety – nově jsou podporovány integrované mesh vrstvy scény ve webových scénách.

Mapy s příběhem

Mezi šablony Story Map přibyla staronová šablona Story Map Shortlist, která je nyní dostupná ve verzi beta. Získala nový vzhled a podporuje větší obrázky.  Šablonu naleznete na ArcGIS Online, kde namísto předchozího upravování zdrojového kódu svůj příběh sestavíte snadno a rychle v interaktivním prostředí.

The Year in Infrastructure 2016 Conference is an ideal opportunity for management-level executives in architecture firms, engineering firms, construction companies, and government or owner-operator organizations responsible for the design, delivery, and/or operations of infrastructure to share best practices and meet infrastructure professionals from around the world. All those who submitted a nomination in the Be Inspired Awards program are also encouraged to attend.
