Starting Point

When an existing Feature Service has been developed by WSG or LandMark it will be provided to you as a File Geodatabase (FGDB) and an ArcMap Document (*.mxd) or ArcPro Project (*.aprx). Additionally, you may be provided with ArcGIS Layer files (*.lyr) which define the symbology for feature layers. If business rules have already been developed, they will be stored in the FGDB in the appropriate tables (Rules, Related_Domains, Check_Rules). The steps below can be used to publish the Feature Service from these inputs. If you have developed the data model independently, the steps below can be used to develop an ArcMap Document or ArcPro Project and publish a Feature Service.

ArcMap / ArcPro Settings

If developing a ArcMap Document or ArcPro Project from scratch, add all Layers and Tables to your Map in ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro, then adjust the settings, layer order and symbology by following the steps below.

General

• Map document name - we recommend using the same name as the feature (e.g., Cruise_Data_Model_v2). This is helpful when overwriting a Feature Service, as ArcMap will know which Feature Service you are attempting to overwrite.

• Map Layer - set projection to Web Mercator (Auxiliary Sphere)

• Map Document Properties

  • Required propertie
