Hosted Imagery in ArcGIS Excalibur September 2020 Release<\/h2>\n

Do your imagery<\/a> workflows include the need to quickly disseminate a few local images for exploitation? Does your organization need a way to easily share recent image collections for use across image-based applications? Does your organization have limited administrators, but a high-demand to use new imagery files for analysis to create image-derived products? These are a few of the common difficulties some organizations face. However, these difficulties can be overcome by using the new capability to publish hosted imagery layers in the ArcGIS Excalibur September 2020 release.<\/p>\n

Hosted imagery layers are dynamic image services that make it easier to manage, publish, and share imagery with your organization and for your analysis. Sounds good right? Well simply put, if you identify local imagery files on your machine for upload, ArcGIS Excalibur will take care of the rest.<\/p>\n

Requirements to Use Hosted Imagery in Excalibur<\/h2>\n

So what would you need to support this capability in your organization? Great question. To upload hosted imagery layers in the ArcGIS Excalibur September 2020 release, your environment must be properly configured<\/a> for image hosting and raster analysis, and you need privileges to create content and publish imagery layers.<\/p>\n

Once these requirements are in place, you can publish imagery through the Excalibur home page or through the side navigation menu under Publish Imagery.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1016112,"id":1016112,"title":"ArcGIS Excalibur - Publish Imagery Capability","filename":"Homepage_light.jpg","filesize":82314,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Homepage_light.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/excalibur\/imagery\/upload-imagery-for-use-in-arcgis-excalibur\/homepage_light","alt":"ArcGIS Excalibur - Publish A Hosted Imagery Layer","author":"9572","description":"ArcGIS Excalibur - Publish Imagery Capability","caption":"ArcGIS Excalibur - Publish A Hosted Imagery Layer","name":"homepage_light","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1016082,"date":"2020-09-22 18:23:15","modified":"2020-09-23 11:54:05","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1908,"height":939,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Homepage_light-213x200.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Homepage_light.jpg","medium-width":464,"medium-height":228,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Homepage_light.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":378,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Homepage_light.jpg","large-width":1908,"large-height":939,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Homepage_light-1536x756.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":756,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Homepage_light.jpg","2048x2048-width":1908,"2048x2048-height":939,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Homepage_light-826x407.jpg","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":407,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Homepage_light.jpg","wide_image-width":1908,"wide_image-height":939}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Publish a Hosted Imagery Layer Guided Workflow<\/h2>\n

The Publish a Hosted Imagery Layer capability takes you through a short, guided workflow for a successful publishing experience. Let’s walk you through these four easy steps using a local image file. This image file was created from the Full Motion Video<\/a> capability in ArcGIS Pro using the Frame Snapshot tool<\/a>\u00a0in the video player.<\/p>\n

Step 1 – Provide Layer Information<\/h3>\n

Step 1 allows you to provide basic information about your new imagery layer such as the title of the layer and the option to share the layer to your organization. The information provided in this step is also used to populate the imagery layer (hosted) portal item when it is created. This allows for users within your organization to gain an understanding of the imagery layer.<\/p>\n

Since this image is a snapshot around an Area of Interest (AOI) training site where activity was observed, I will add these details to my layer.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1016142,"id":1016142,"title":"ArcGIS Excalibur Publish Imagery Step 1 - Layer Information","filename":"ArcGIS-Excalibur-Publish-Imagery-Step-1-Layer-Information.jpg","filesize":62937,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/ArcGIS-Excalibur-Publish-Imagery-Step-1-Layer-Information.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/excalibur\/imagery\/upload-imagery-for-use-in-arcgis-excalibur\/arcgis-excalibur-publish-imagery-step-1-layer-information","alt":"ArcGIS Excalibur Publish Imagery Step 1 - Layer Information","author":"9572","description":"ArcGIS Excalibur Publish Imagery Step 1 - Layer Information","caption":"ArcGIS Excalibur Publish Imagery Step 1 - Layer Information","name":"arcgis-excalibur-publish-imagery-step-1-layer-information","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1016082,"date":"2020-09-22 18:30:30","modified":"2020-09-22 18:30:49","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1915,"height":943,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/ArcGIS-Excalibur-Publish-Imagery-Step-1-Layer-Information-213x200.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/ArcGIS-Excalibur-Publish-Imagery-Step-1-Layer-Information.jpg","medium-width":464,"medium-height":228,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/ArcGIS-Excalibur-Publish-Imagery-Step-1-Layer-Information.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":378,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/ArcGIS-Excalibur-Publish-Imagery-Step-1-Layer-Information.jpg","large-width":1915,"large-height":943,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/ArcGIS-Excalibur-Publish-Imagery-Step-1-Layer-Information-1536x756.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":756,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/ArcGIS-Excalibur-Publish-Imagery-Step-1-Layer-Information.jpg","2048x2048-width":1915,"2048x2048-height":943,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/ArcGIS-Excalibur-Publish-Imagery-Step-1-Layer-Information-826x407.jpg","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":407,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/09\/ArcGIS-Excalibur-Publish-Imagery-Step-1-Layer-Information.jpg","wide_image-width":1915,"wide_image-height":943}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Step 2 – Choose Layer Type<\/h3>\n

Step 2 allows you to choose the configuration of the new imagery layer when it is created. This is determined based on your source data and intended use of the imagery. This step offers three choices as described below:<\/p>\n
