We\u2019re seeing the rapid emergence of new technologies and experiences that change the way that people and organizations contextualize and understand problems.\u00a0 3D GIS has evolved to a point that users can trust authoring their authoritative data within the context of 3D scenes, but there\u2019s a small period of adjustment for users to orient themselves and navigate within a 3D environment. Ultimately, you never want someone to feel lost when navigating within an app for the first time, and you want a user to intuitively know where they are in relation to an existing point of reference.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a new 3D app template that makes introducing 3D to your organization easier!\u00a0 The new Scene with Inset Map 3D app template provides a bridge between 2D and 3D web mapping by embedding a web map into an inset of a scene.\u00a0 The perspective of the viewer is emulated as a marker that shows the approximate position and direction of the \u2018camera\u2019 (or view) of the scene on a corresponding web map.\u00a0 When navigating through a scene, the marker and extent of the web map will move with the viewer.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":320922,"id":320922,"title":"3DwithInsetapptemplate","filename":"3DwithInsetapptemplate.png","filesize":511056,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/09\/3DwithInsetapptemplate.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/apps\/3d-gis\/scene-with-inset-map\/3dwithinsetapptemplate","alt":"","author":"8352","description":"","caption":"","name":"3dwithinsetapptemplate","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":320802,"date":"2018-09-17 21:41:02","modified":"2018-09-17 21:41:02","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/png","type":"image","subtype":"png","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1898,"height":1080,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/09\/3DwithInsetapptemplate.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":121,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/09\/3DwithInsetapptemplate.png","medium-width":459,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/09\/3DwithInsetapptemplate.png","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":437,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/09\/3DwithInsetapptemplate.png","large-width":1898,"large-height":1080,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/09\/3DwithInsetapptemplate.png","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":874,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/09\/3DwithInsetapptemplate.png","2048x2048-width":1898,"2048x2048-height":1080,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/09\/3DwithInsetapptemplate.png","card_image-width":817,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2018\/09\/3DwithInsetapptemplate.png","wide_image-width":1898,"wide_image-height":1080}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

First, it\u2019s best to have a scene and a web map that complement each other and provide a helpful way to orient the user.\u00a0\u00a0 The app will default to using a basemap, but it\u2019s helpful to arrange features that can orient the user.\u00a0 This blog provides a strategy to begin authoring scenes<\/a> that rely on data that is typically visualized in 2D.\u00a0 Ensure that you have appropriate and equivalent sharing enabled for your scene, web map and features.\u00a0 There are three places that you can create the Scene with Inset Map 3d app template:<\/p>\n
