The ArcGIS API for JavaScript added support for labeling point clusters with the total count or other aggregate summary information.
Capacity Analysis is a new app demonstrating why custom web apps can be better solutions that generic web mapping software like ArcGIS Online.
Mapping large amounts of data on the web has always been a challenge. Learn techniques you can use to improve performance with large datasets.
The Map Viewer Beta allows you to automatically change the size of point and line symbols by scale for all styles.
Though subtle, icon and outline sizes varied by scale will turn a mediocre visualization into a great one.
The Esri color ramps and Visualization Best Practices guide pages assist you in creating better maps using better combinations of colors.
Clustering allows you to summarize and explore point layers as spatial clusters.
Add additional meaning and context to your data-driven map using a colored histogram instead of a legend.
