[@movax_71]

Looks great! Can't wait to "View" some local areas. Thanks again, and again, and again.

[@JohnNelsonMaps]

enjoy! i'd love to see what you map.

[@paulroulaine1530]

Can you create the same with ArcGIS Pro?

[@beytepepostas3613]

I would ask the same question

[@JohnNelsonMaps]

Yes! Link to that video in the description

I use my organization account, but I do not have access to this tool. There is no bottom. Could you please help me?

[@JohnNelsonMaps]

"create viewshed" should be available to all arcgis online users. do you not see it, or are there settings that don't match the video demonstration?

[@CartoRedux]

How many Nelson's you hiding in that shed???

[@JohnNelsonMaps]

altogether too many

This is so cool! I am from italy and did the same but using my balcony as viewpoint, results looked pretty similar to yours! Love it ahah I was trying to save this map to an image, selecting print, but there arent that many options and the pdf has the viewshed still with the original orange symbols. How can i save it to a cool picture like you did for yours? Thank you! I discovered your channel only recently and only this week my map making abilities skyrocketed thanks to your advice and demos! Thanks for your work :)

Very cool! Hey Mr. Nelson give us a real cool facility management project, maybe something with the indoors GIS extension😮. I love these videos and would really enjoy a John Nelson take on a FMS project.

Thanks!

Professor, I have a question not related to the video. I’m studying the different methods to classify my data in classes depending on its distribution. In a conference you did for URISA Texas you mentioned that your data was normally distributed so you would choose “Equal Interval”. Could you please help me to understand why is it a good method for normally distributed data? Thank you! 🫶🏼

[@JohnNelsonMaps]

good question! here's more info about classification methods: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fX7GXmiBfbOtpbs

im binging your content now its amazing to see tips and trick along the way and some times the stories behind your parents and your chilhoud makes me connect more thank you Jhon, one question whats is your pc specs (CPU ram gpu) cause arc pros runs smooths on yours especially in 3d :p

[@JohnNelsonMaps]

thanks Georgy! i have a Dell Precision 7770 laptop with 32 GB of ram and an NVIDIA RTX A3000 12GB graphics card. it's pretty fancy, and has made my life much less frustrating than it was before. also note that i edit my videos so that you don't have to sit and watch my progress spin. it's optimized for viewers. so it's probably not quite as buttery smooth as it may look. i don't want to lie about performance but i also have to balance what makes sense for a how-to video, so there's some editing of waiting that happens. if there's a significant wait, i try to add a note saying what the wait was.

[@friegawan]

Please make a artistic hot spot map

[@JohnNelsonMaps]

hot spot like the getis ord hotspot analysis?

[@friegawan]

Yes, like the getis, but make it more artistic

[@friegawan]
