One of my favorite ways to visualize data collected by ArcGIS Tracker<\/a> or ArcGIS Field Maps<\/a> is through a linear heatmap.

Let\u2019s see how we can build a similar map in ArcGIS Pro and then publish it to our organization as a Vector Tile Layer. The following steps are adapted from a great blog post<\/a> by John Nelson, a cartographer at ESRI.<\/p>\n

Create a map<\/h2>\n

This visualization uses stacked lines with varying colors and opacity to create the effect shown above. Since Tracker and Field Maps store the data as points, we first need to build track lines. In this blog we’ll be using the Reconstruct Tracks<\/a> tool powered by GeoAnalytics Server<\/a>. If you do not have access to GeoAnalytics Server, you can use the Points to Line<\/a> tool in ArcGIS Pro or a custom script<\/a>.<\/p>\n

First, let’s create a new map and add a track view tracks layer. You can see there are a ton of points on the map and it’s difficult to see any clear patterns.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":897541,"id":897541,"title":"Raw track data","filename":"Load-Track-Data.png","filesize":213060,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Load-Track-Data.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/tracker\/field-mobility\/creating-a-linear-heatmap-with-track-data\/load-track-data","alt":"Raw track data","author":"8272","description":"","caption":"","name":"load-track-data","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":897291,"date":"2020-06-23 14:46:20","modified":"2020-06-23 14:46:50","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":1682,"height":1005,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Load-Track-Data-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Load-Track-Data.png","medium-width":437,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Load-Track-Data.png","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":459,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Load-Track-Data.png","large-width":1682,"large-height":1005,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Load-Track-Data-1536x918.png","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":918,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Load-Track-Data.png","2048x2048-width":1682,"2048x2048-height":1005,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Load-Track-Data-778x465.png","card_image-width":778,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Load-Track-Data.png","wide_image-width":1682,"wide_image-height":1005}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

The Reconstruct Tracks tool allows us to turn all of the point data into lines. It allows these lines to be unique per user and also to be split based on time and distance thresholds. Since it uses distributed computation, it’s pretty quick for large datasets.<\/p>\n

Once the tool is open, we’ll need to fill in some of the parameters:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Input Layer<\/strong> \u2013 Provide the name of the tracks layer containing your data<\/li>\n
  2. Output Name<\/strong> \u2013 Provide the name of the new layer that will be created<\/li>\n
  3. Track Fields<\/strong> \u2013 Provide the fields that uniquely identify the tracks. This should be Created User<\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. Time Split <\/strong>\u2013 Provide a value that will cause track lines to be split into separate lines if two consecutive points are more than this time interval apart.<\/li>\n
  5. Distance Split<\/strong> – Provide a value that will cause track lines to be split into separate lines if two consecutive points are more than this distance apart.<\/li>\n
  6. Data Store<\/strong> \u2013 Choose which datastore you would like the resulting layer to be hosted in. You may run into pagination issues if you choose \u00ad\u00adSpatiotemporal data store.<\/li>\n
  7. Output Coordinate System\u00ad<\/strong> \u2013You may want to set the output coordinate system. This is located under the <\/span><\/span>Environment<\/span><\/span><\/strong> tab. I used Web Mercator since this data will<\/span><\/span> primarily be used in web maps.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You can leave the other parameters as is and run the tool.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":897571,"id":897571,"title":"Reconstruct Tracks Settings","filename":"Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings.png","filesize":13796,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/tracker\/field-mobility\/creating-a-linear-heatmap-with-track-data\/reconstruct-tracks-settings","alt":"Recontruct tracks settings","author":"8272","description":"","caption":"","name":"reconstruct-tracks-settings","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":897291,"date":"2020-06-23 14:48:59","modified":"2020-06-23 14:49:38","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":307,"height":813,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings.png","medium-width":99,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings.png","medium_large-width":307,"medium_large-height":813,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings.png","large-width":307,"large-height":813,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings.png","1536x1536-width":307,"1536x1536-height":813,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings.png","2048x2048-width":307,"2048x2048-height":813,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings-176x465.png","card_image-width":176,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings.png","wide_image-width":307,"wide_image-height":813}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":897581,"id":897581,"title":"Reconstruct tracks environment","filename":"Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings-Env.png","filesize":5713,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings-Env.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/tracker\/field-mobility\/creating-a-linear-heatmap-with-track-data\/reconstruct-tracks-settings-env","alt":"Reconstruct tracks environment","author":"8272","description":"","caption":"","name":"reconstruct-tracks-settings-env","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":897291,"date":"2020-06-23 14:49:01","modified":"2020-06-23 14:49:27","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":303,"height":227,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings-Env-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings-Env.png","medium-width":303,"medium-height":227,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings-Env.png","medium_large-width":303,"medium_large-height":227,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings-Env.png","large-width":303,"large-height":227,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings-Env.png","1536x1536-width":303,"1536x1536-height":227,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings-Env.png","2048x2048-width":303,"2048x2048-height":227,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings-Env.png","card_image-width":303,"card_image-height":227,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Reconstruct-Tracks-Settings-Env.png","wide_image-width":303,"wide_image-height":227}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"
