Make Insightful Decisions Based on Real-Time Data<\/h2>\r\nArcGIS Velocity is a cloud-native real-time and big data software as a service (SaaS) solution that allows organizations to ingest, visualize, analyze, and act on data from sensors and asset trackers. It also enables organizations to process high volumes of historical data to gain insight into patterns and trends and discover anomalies.\r\n\r\nIn 2022, ArcGIS Velocity users gained access to more feeds and analytics. Users with ArcGIS Velocity Standard subscriptions can now run up to 10 feeds and analytics, and users with ArcGIS Velocity Advanced subscriptions can run up to 15 feeds and analytics. Several improvements have also been made to keep users better informed of subscription management needs. For example, the feed data rate notifications that users receive now clarify the specific feeds that are exceeding maximum data rates.\r\n\r\nSeveral enhancements have been made to the feeds, outputs, and analytics in Velocity as well. Users can develop integrations for real-time data providers that aren\u2019t supported out of the box by leveraging the gRPC feed type, a high-performance, open-source remote procedure call that pushes real-time data into ArcGIS via a hosted endpoint. Dynamic geofencing, which was also recently released, helps support users that need to find relationships, perform spatial enrichment, and make decisions based on the spatial proximity between two real-time feeds. Tools that support these capabilities include Detect Incidents, Filter by Geometry, Calculate Distance, and Join Features."},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Engage Community Members with ArcGIS Hub<\/h2>\r\nWith ArcGIS Hub, organizations can leverage the data and technology they already have in ArcGIS Online to work with internal and external stakeholders on particular projects and wider initiatives."},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":544652,"image_position":"left","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"Improvements have been made to certain types of gallery cards, which Hub users employ to display datasets, related apps, and additional sites and pages. Map and iframe cards can now be shared in addition to app cards. Within these cards\u2019 settings, there are two new options: Enable Sharing, which can be toggled on or off, and Button Always Visible, which keeps a button visible when toggled on. When the Enable Sharing button is toggled off, the Share button only appears when hub site visitors hover over the item. And when visitors click the Share button, they\u2019re able to copy a link (to share with others) that goes directly to that card on the hub site.\r\n\r\nWhile site owners and creators have already been able to expose catalog and collection metadata in standardized and interoperable formats, such as DCAT-US 1.1 and DCAT-AP 2.0.1, Hub now supports RSS 2.0 feeds. This enables site visitors to more easily see daily changes to a site\u2019s content. Site creators and owners can also now set domain redirects when editing or changing their site\u2019s primary domain. This ensures that community members can access hub sites without any discrepancies when the primary domain address has been altered or changed.\r\n\r\nLastly, there are several new ways for users to explore and interact with data when viewing a dataset on a map. Two new buttons on the right side of the screen are Select and Draw an area. These allow site visitors to filter data by point or polygon; draw buffers around points and polygons; and use the new polyline draw tool, which lets users draw a line on the map, select to filter by area, and set a buffer size using various units."},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Simplify How Stakeholders Work with Imagery<\/h2>\r\nImagery and raster data enable decision-makers to see what\u2019s happening on the ground and immediately understand change. But imagery data takes up a lot of space and comes in a variety of formats, so people often find it difficult to work with for the following reasons:\r\n
