The South Central Region Office of the Department of Water Resources Surface and Groundwater Data Collection unit collects groundwater level information for approximately 1000 wells located in California, collected twice a year. Field technicians use Collector for ArcGIS mobile app to collect information at each well about the water well level (Reading at Reference Point) and any additional information about the well, like comments and reasons why a well couldn\u2019t be measured (No Measure). Technicians include an image or more with each well feature so that the next technician to visit the location will know what the well looks like. The data in the feature layer is then used for further mapping and analysis by the Department of Water Resources (DWR).

Images, videos, and PDFs that are stored as attachments with feature layers allow you to associate documents or photos to specific features. They are often used to provide visual information about what a specific feature looked like at the time of data collection. This is a common workflow when reporting trail conditions, pump inspections and crowdsourcing locations and images during events. In each example the images provide a richer understanding of what was occurring when the data was collected. This article walks through the steps of creating an attachment viewer app, using data that was collected by California Department of Water Resources. The goal of building the app is to create an easy way for project managers and field staff to browse and review collected data.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Build an Attachment Viewer App<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Step 1. Build the map<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Like many configurable apps, the creation of the app starts by creating a map in Map Viewer. The data for this app had already been collected by the DWR field technicians in a feature layer with attachments enabled<\/a>. A sample subset of the data can found at this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Best practices to create a map (for use in Attachment Viewer)<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Choose meaningful symbology for your dataset.<\/strong>
    \nThe map below (Image 2) symbolizes the wells based on the measurement status. Measurement wasn\u2019t possible for all well locations, so blue squares indicate that no measurement was obtained, and green squares indicate that a successful measurement was taken.<\/li>\n
  2. Choose an appropriate basemap that enhances the map and chosen symbology.<\/strong>
    \nThe imagery with labels basemap was selected for this map (Image 2) because it provides visual information about where the measurements were taken. This well run is in Sunflower Valley, an agricultural area.<\/li>\n
  3. Configure your pop-up to display relevant information for each feature. Ensure that you select the option to show feature attachments as links.<\/strong>
    \nThere is a lot of information available in this dataset. Creating a well-designed pop-up lets the app viewer focus on the important values in the dataset. The pop-up in the app below uses Arcade to show only the No measurement reasons when no measurement is taken (Image 1).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":541142,"id":541142,"title":"Pop up Configuration","filename":"pop-up.png","filesize":38563,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/pop-up.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-online\/mapping\/introducing-attachment-viewer\/pop-up-4","alt":"Custom attribute configuration of a pop-up and the show feature attachments as links option enabled.","author":"5631","description":"","caption":"Image 1: Pop-Up Configuration","name":"pop-up-4","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":540982,"date":"2019-06-25 21:27:11","modified":"2019-06-25 21:34:39","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":564,"height":513,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/pop-up-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/pop-up.png","medium-width":287,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/pop-up.png","medium_large-width":564,"medium_large-height":513,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/pop-up.png","large-width":564,"large-height":513,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/pop-up.png","1536x1536-width":564,"1536x1536-height":513,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/pop-up.png","2048x2048-width":564,"2048x2048-height":513,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/pop-up-511x465.png","card_image-width":511,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/pop-up.png","wide_image-width":564,"wide_image-height":513}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/pop-up.png"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

    1. Set the extent of the map to establish the starting location of the app.<\/strong>
