We Have Data! Now What?

hello and welcome everyone to we have data now what thanks for joining me i'm kylie donia i'm with the k-12 education team here at esri i've been on this team for a couple years now but i've been at ezra for quite a bit longer and previously previous to this team i worked on our data collection apps so to me it's always fun to explore this intersection of data collection and education which are two of my passions and see how they can come together and what children get out of it and in this case we're also going to be looking at a bit of storytelling in that intersection so it should be a lot of fun um and first just a little bit the power of data collection right so data's all around us we're constantly using it evaluating it and through data collection children start to understand how to structure data and think critically about all that data that they are seeing they can build their own data they get to be scientists right they're making information that no one else has as part of that they're going to learn some of the weaknesses in data some of its strengths some of the questions to ask when using other people's data and they're going to ultimately become better sorry they'll ultimately become better data consumers and evaluators sorry let's see if we get that there we go okay so in addition to getting to become better data scientists right consumers evaluators kids also just get excited when they're looking at their own data on the map so no one else knows this information and so they can take this data and they've collected it and they've learned something right but what do they do now like they have dots on a map maybe or they have information and they need to go from that to maybe communicating that information maybe getting more out of it and the dots on the map so collecting and having the data isn't enough students need to take that data and solve a problem or tell a story and they're going to give meaning turn it into knowledge apply what they've learned all these great great concepts for education right now the first thing that we're going to do after we've collected data well there's really two parts okay analysis or understanding what your data has to say and then also communicating about that data now if you're new to data collection i'm not really going to be talking about how you collect data how you design your data collection and design your structures i covered that in the last hour and so if you missed it please go back to that um sorry this so this session's jumping in after the sorry just a second sorry about that so if you're new to data collection keep that in mind that we're not going to get into some of those basics and we're going to look at this data after we have collected it all right so analysis there's a couple types of analysis a couple types of analysis that we can be doing one is visual analysis give me just a second i'm sorry sorry about that so visual analysis is one part of this and the focus is just on understanding what your data has to say okay so we can use visual analysis looking at the maps looking at the data we've collected or we can go and use specialized analysis tools so let's start just by looking at some visual analysis all right so those of you who did join me in the last session you've seen this map we're looking at favorite colors this was a very simple data collection project where people were asked what's your favorite color and roughly where are you and you can see we've got some data on a map but let's see what we can learn well you can see where the most of the respondents were right a lot of people in the united states some in europe as well and that makes sense with the people i know since i made this data collection project and i shared it out a bit organically just through word of mouth is it evenly distributed well no it's very much clustered in different areas all right so we're doing some analysis here we're starting to find a pattern making some of these connections we could go look closer into an area and see what other patterns we could learn right we have an interactive map here what if i was to ask you what's the most popular color what about the least popular color just a second i'm sorry sorry about that so we can look at this and we could ask things right like most popular color least popular color that that's harder to answer right because our eye isn't going to be good at that when looking at the data on a map um can we tell what the distribution is in different map areas how does it compare in different areas so a map is useful but it is not the only thing that we can do use to learn about this data so let's go ahead and take a look at some of the other tools as well all right so in arcgis online you can also use a number of tools to do some of this analysis for you things like creating buffers what is within a mile it'll give you information about that what about hotspots identifying clusters where things are centralized how many of somethings in a given area these are all questions that you can ask a computer and get a great answer based on the math so let's go ahead and take a look at one of these now we're going to look at interpolating points so let me pull that up all right so before we can do analysis we kind of have to know what we're looking at and right now i pretty i'm pretty sure you guys can't really tell yet but what we have is some points here and we can go ahead and we can look at the table which we wouldn't need to do if it's your own data right because you'd be familiar with it and i'll tell you about this data too so what we're looking at is a soundscape so each of these are recordings of somebody about the loudness in decibels in their neighborhood around them their description of the sound they were measuring it on their phone so we can see how loud it was here was a cars horns people all right so we're looking at sound i can tell that this area is probably a bit louder over here is a little got a little quieter in here and maybe we'd want to see that on a different base map right so we can do these kinds of things to explore our data we can get a sense oh okay so this looks like a more commercial area and here's some houses so this pattern might make sense but what if we wanted to know what the sound is like in some other areas and that's where this tool is going to help us because when we're doing data collection we can only collect it at so many points so we're analyzing the pattern today and we're going to be interpolating the points we want to take that soundscape and you'll understand this stakeholder part a little bit later we'll get to that and we're going to choose a field and here we're curious about how loud it is and we're going to give it a name and let's see what else we want to do well we'll use our current map extent because we know this is the only area where we were looking at points and let's go ahead and check our credit usage as well so credits are kind of like the currency of arcgis online and you get plenty with your k12 school bundle but it's always a good idea to check what your usage would be before running an analysis tool because it can sometimes catch you before you do something you didn't mean to do perhaps you had been at the wrong extent or using a layer with more features than you intended to use when i look and i see i'm using less than a credit i go okay yeah that makes sense for the amount of data i'm expecting to be analyzing so i can go ahead and run that and what's happening is the computer is now generating a model of predicting what the sound is at points where i wasn't able to measure it now of course there are going to be limitations to this right this is not a huge data set i'm not expecting to get a perfect model as a result or a perfect prediction as a result of that i would have to collect a lot more data to improve these predictions but at least we can get a sense and this is like a cooking show i've gone ahead and done it ahead of time so i'm just going to turn that on and you can get a sense of where it is so from the colors the darker areas turn off the double now that it came in for us the darker areas are louder and here's kind of the trend and that makes sense with the base map we were looking at right so we've done a little bit of visual analysis to go with our analysis tool all right so that's the first part right we've taken our data we've understood it we've made some conclusions about it maybe we've looked for some patterns both visually and with some tools and that can take much longer right there are quite a number of tools i listed only a few on that slide and it takes well some playing with it one of my favorite gis things play with it go experiment explore and see what you need to use because in your project the tool you need will be different than the tool i need for my project but now we're ready to communicate it okay let's share what we've learned now it's your data so when i showed that last example right we had to start by opening the table because i had to bring you in enough so that you'd know what i was looking at and talking about but i knew the story it was telling i knew what tool i wanted to use so i can't tell you exactly which tool for your project but there's a bunch that esri offers so let's look at some of these what if you want others to be able to do the same analysis you did maybe do those same steps and get a sense of the same thing well i might want to just share a map and maybe some steps for them with how to do it maybe i want to take it a step further and not just provide my data to them but provide a dashboard where it's going to take that map and that data i collected and pull in the the visualizations like charts and lists that i think are going to help them understand this data because i'm the data expert it's my data right maybe i want to put a narrative to it i want to take them through a story or a journey now i can create a story map to do that right so that's going to allow me to combine a bunch of tools now there's others on here i haven't spoken to right there's web app builder and hub and all these different ways to take data and give it a bigger story and share it out and you'll find sessions on some of these other tools throughout this conference but i'm going to dive in and first look at the simplest let's make a map so we'll come back in and this time it looks a little bit different i am using the new map viewer now and that's okay um don't worry they're similar and there are sessions later in the conference if you want to come check out more about this but what we're going to do is we're going to go ahead and add a layer i'm going to go to my favorite color layer and here i'm not seeing what i expect and that's okay give me just a second i am gonna go ahead and open a new tab and try to remember why that's not working it's okay we're going to make it fun i'll just change out what i was going to show you let's go to a different layer because i definitely want to use one from survey123 and i'm not sure which account i made that one in and sometimes i have too many and get myself tricked up i also know i made one about shoes the other day so we'll use shoes instead of colors now this is again points on a map with information about people's shoe size and their style of shoe and looking at you know what is the distribution of shoes did weather and temperature play into that right and so we have three different layers and these are all created by survey one two three this first one down here is just called shoes that's the true feature layer itself okay that has all of the information and is the one i don't really want to share with people that's the one i'm going to keep to myself now the field worker one is the one that's used to fill out the survey so it's editable something to keep in mind there if a layer is editable people might edit things you don't want edited other people might add stuff right your sharing is going to control that but i don't really want to share it with everyone so they can read it because it is editable so that's where the stakeholder one comes in and that's based on who you want to see results let's jump into survey123 for a minute because i want to show you how these different layers how the settings on them and the permissions are set up so here's that shoe survey so we can use that same one now when you come in and you're looking at your survey you have a collaborate tab now we've talked before if you were in the last hour or if you've done a survey before about the sharing the survey right this is who can fill it out and what they can do that is what's going to set up the permissions on that field worker layer think about it the person in the field they're doing the data collection right so they need to be able to submit data to the survey now your stakeholder is the person who cares about your results right same as it at school you have stakeholders on projects things like that that's controlled here in the sharing results so you could also have it available to everyone but you could change it you could say people can only see their own records maybe people can view it but not export it so you again are in control of who can see it and you can take those results and you can actually view them right in the survey app which is something we looked at a little bit in the other hour and you can see some of the information in here but let's go ahead back to where we were let's jump back to our map so in this case we're making a map to share because we're making that map to share what layer are we going to include the stakeholder we're sharing results sorry i should have been more explicit there so since we're sharing the results we're going to add the stakeholder layer i apologize for my internet connection today it's working very hard i'm going to go ahead and reload because i'm noticing the base map and things didn't come in there either let's see if it's happier this time that looks much better and we can do our quick search for shoes and there's our stakeholder layer and we're up and running so let's go ahead and add our shoes layer to the map this is the basics where you'll start on sharing your data right you can share an interactive map now this does leave it in the hands of your reader to explore that and understand it but there are some things you can do to help them so let's look at those one thing we can do is set up what it looks like in this case we can add a field that we want to symbolize our data based on perhaps in this time let's look at the style of shoe for example things like are they wearing socks is it athletic shoes slippers boots and you can go ahead and you can make it look the way you want i find the symbols a little bit small by default so i'm going to come in and make them larger and again this is something you'll see in a map viewer session so the buttons on which you do it are a little less important to me right now than the fact that you can do it okay and you're symbolizing it great that's a good start now it is an interactive map and i don't have a lot of surrounds of text and information so people are going to be clicking on the map to learn about my data and i have a little table but maybe i want to make that experience better another thing you can do to make it better is configure the pop-ups on it and that's one of the reasons i'm actually using new map viewer is a pop-up experience can create much nicer pop-ups for example we can add the attachments right in we could make a different kind of text section if we didn't want that table look perhaps we could say um let's say pick our fields that we want to say [Music] we could say what brand of shoes are and then let's put in the style and what size they have on we can say okay and you'll see that that comes up at the bottom now now in the pop-up i can do things like change the order put that at the top instead maybe i don't need that list of fields at all so i'll delete it and you can make your own pop-up now you'll notice i did set up an attachment but i'm not seeing it on that one because there's no attachment with that point of data ah here's someone who had socks on so now you can get a sense of what it looks like maybe i don't want the picture so big i can change it great we can make the map and we can share this map now i'm not going to go through sorry i'm not going to go through all the settings here but just like any map you're making in arches online you give it a title you give it some tags a description and then you'll be able to share it through your organization to groups or publicly as needed for the project that you're working on now one of the things about making a map for data collection is a lot of these other things i'm going to show story maps dashboard they're going to start from this point right they start with that map so let's keep going we looked at the map and now we want to do something that's a little bit more we want to help the user understand what we've found so we're going to go ahead and jump to a dashboard this is the dashboard that i put together for the favorite colors and you can see it brings in a little bit more as we discussed before right now if i was asking you something like uh what's the what's the most popular color would you better be able to answer my question yeah right we can look at a table right here and see very clearly that blue is the most popular green is lower okay well it's interactive what else can i learn well i happen to know my son's favorite fact is that if you look at europe blue and green become almost even and in fact for a while over the summer they were even and he found that fascinating because it was a difference right a different pattern in a different place and the nice thing about a dashboard is it lets your reader explore this data on their own you're guiding them because you've provided the list the types of charts you think they'll be interested in and you're helping them find it you can give interactions so they can see different aspects showing only the blue or only the green or maybe both of them but you're but your reader has the ability to explore and dig into this data in the ways that they find interesting so while you're packaging it you're still giving some room but you did have to package it so let's look at what that's like what if we were editing and making one of these what is that all about so here's our same dashboard and it looks like again my internet has caught us so i'm going to go ahead and refresh the page sometimes when i've had a number of tabs open they get a little bit tired all right and now i'm looking at the same dashboard but it's editable so i can do things like add another element and you can see there's quite a lot of choices in a dashboard we could add multiple maps we can bring in legends we could bring in more charts of different types indicators are what these are over here showing different statistics about our data a gauge is another way we could be showing some data perhaps we want to add a gauge because we would like to get a thousand people to fill out our survey well we can see how close we are to making that goal we can change what it looks like give it different looks and feels perhaps we want it to be a percentage okay so with great power comes great responsibility right you are now able to configure things that you think someone needs to see about your data and place them and you need to do your best of understanding what they're going to need when they are looking at your data and we can place that in let's look at some other things we can configure in here lists are very popular they're a great a great way to show your data and you can do something very simple like this where what you're doing is simply pulling in some attributes now you can take it a lot farther you have full ability with arcade in here to do all kinds of processing you can do very interesting things like changing the background colors based on other attributes or making the format will be much more dynamic or as you may have seen in the plenary dashboard this morning having an icon that showed the temperature people chose instead of the word about the temperature right all of that's possible because of this formatting that was done in the dashboard it was just rendering the data in different ways and that's what a dashboard is it's you choosing how to show off your data and again we can also add charts so let's go ahead and look at actually i did not show let me get back in that list for a minute the other thing we can do here in this list is we can add some actions so we can say this list knows about the map that's near and what i want to do is when selection changes okay so when something in my list has the selection change we're going to flash it on the map let's see that we can jump in here and let's select something in our list now this is useful because we could use that to find where that is and in this case our list is sorted so that the newer ones are at the top and we can see where's someone who likes green okay see that flashing so i have a list and i have a map but they know about each other just like you saw with the chart down here when i would click on bars there's a relationship between these and that's part of your authoring right you get to design the interactions that should happen between the elements that you place in your dashboard and again what you're doing here is you're setting it up to guide other people's exploration you are the expert of this data and you're sharing it so that they can learn from it they need to be guided you took a lot of time and you're presenting it all right let's go on to the next one so from a dashboard maybe we want to give a bit more narrative to it right i'm sure many of you have seen story maps let's jump in and look at one here's all the different story maps i have my apologies it was not open yet i'm just going to type the short url for the same favorite color one oh that's right it was way over there no worries so we've got our story map up and you can see that in this story map i have presented my survey and you can fill it out and there's the map and you can see the maps appear and then all the different types of analysis you might want to do so in a story map you can actually take and place anything you want in this case you can see i've even embedded the dashboard i think of the story map as almost the research paper right so i am now presenting my findings i'm building the complete story of my project what maps were interesting what images help me along the way maybe some of the nice attachments or things that help me come to my conclusions maybe there's other sources i've been using along the way and i want to bring in bring them in here to tell a full complete picture this is a lot more guided i'm providing a lot more narrative that's helping people understand my data i'm not just relying on them to click around the dashboard and explore it on their own with my guidance but on their own i'm giving more and more structure to it so i think you'll see that kind of the order i presented these and making a map making a dashboard making a story map you're giving more and more context to that work you've done and that may or may not be appropriate for your project right like i said earlier i can't tell you which one is right for you but i can tell you what each one is right for generally so for our story maps we want to remember that we're creating engaging projects but they're geographic and they're interactive maps so make sure you don't lose that map and that ability for the reader to dive a little deeper and see the things you were seeing what you really want to be doing here is inviting the reader to explore your data and your project well and maybe you even want to take them on your same journey of discovery right especially with students that can be very powerful to see how someone else went from collecting data to analyzing that data and understanding it and building this conclusion and understanding the questions they were asking themselves along the way all right so one of the trickiest things in data collection is it's very hard to say you need this tool you need this resource so instead what i want to do is present you with a number of resources that will help you get to the tools that are right for your project so for the analysis the arcgis online documentation has a great look at the different tools that are available and when you might use them and the types of questions that they answer dashboard has some good resources i've included here story maps do if you'd like to play with that soundscape project that i was showing it's on the geoprojects hub and you can go there and check it out now one of the great things about data collection is you do a cool project right you've collected data you've learned something no one else knows you've wrapped it up in a bundle you've understood it first of all right and then you wrap it up and package it and you're ready to share it for those of you in k-12 the good news is there is an arches online school competition for us schools where you can present those and compete at a at local state and then a national level there were winners of that recently it runs every spring and story maps are always the best they show that whole student journey of learning to do data collection analyzing it and putting it all together and the last few years the projects that win have all incorporated some type of data collection now it wasn't always field data collection which happens to be my favorite right but they were generating data and the same process applies with data you've generated in other ways so that's one thing for you to consider once you've done some projects and you're interested in taking it to the next level or challenging yourself or if you just want to explore some things that other students are doing you can head over to that site and there's a number of examples there that you'll be able to check out all right i like to leave this slide up for a bit i can also go ahead and put these into the chat and i want to go ahead and see if there are any questions as we were going hi carly yeah one of the questions was can you put this in the chat please so wonderful that one i can handle uh we did have one question from earlier on from looking at your interpolation okay you know so in a hot in a hydrological survey if we collect the water quality data for different whales will it draw the contour lines for different water quality you know some of the analysis tools are not my area of expertise jason do you know on that one you want to jump in here yep okay awesome uh so probably possibly uh it will depend on the spatial distribution of your well data how many points you've got that type of thing and just be careful about the reliability of that sort of interpolation between different points inferring similarities you know what's you know i don't know your data set so you'll have to look at your your data and the the landscape where you're collecting data as well but yes potentially yes it could actually do that interpolation for you online it would just depend on how much data you've got awesome thank you you could also maybe do use the um create watershed tool which is in the same analysis pack and so you can actually see you've actually bound your analysis by the watershed as well so that could work yeah jason that's a great point a lot of these analysis tools become even more powerful when you pair a few together right building a model that takes different geographic aspects into account and building up to your solution yeah and it's building on that hydrological point so if you did have some well data with some adverse readings then you can actually use the trace down screen stream tool to think see where that date whether water may end up as well so you can look further downstream so you can start to look at things like the impacts of that great okay so another question we've got here could you work time into a soundscape project yeah so that's a great question so with your data set once you've generated it you will be able to use all the capabilities in arcgis online and you can create time dependent data sets so you would be able to take that variable and look at that on the map yep okay and joseph has a great he wants to he's sharing as well that he has he has on learn.arcgis.com a real-time weather lesson and it does do some interpolation of a weather surface with real-time weather data so if that's something you're interested in that's a great lesson to go check out awesome i love the sharing of resources in the chat thank you guys those are great most of the questions were answered in the chat as well so okay wonderful i don't think i missed anything if your question's not been answered now's the time to speak up or chat up yeah so kylie one of the one of the questions that maybe um people would like to have some clarification around is sharing so you talked about creating maps um and uh what is a good way to share some of those um with people who are not members of your organization or they don't have an esri account great let me jump back out to our map so in arcgis online the basis of sharing is the same for any type of content okay so whether you're looking at a map a layer a data collection project like your survey right the same fundamentals of sharing apply you can choose to share it publicly and then anyone who goes to that link can see it you can choose to share it with just your organization which would mean people need to be signed in and part of your same organization you can share with groups so people need to be signed in but maybe they're not in your org or maybe they're even a subset of your org now it gets a little bit trickier when you're sharing something like a story map that you've put a dashboard in that uses a map that uses a layer but the good news is the tools are going to help you share all of that correctly so as you go when you're in story maps and when you went when you were editing it and you changed some of the settings on the sharing it'll prompt you for the things that you are able to change the sharing on as well that need to be updated to match your story and let you know you're about to do that so there are a lot of helps along the way for that one of the other things that i do strongly recommend anytime you've shared something copy that url yourself use an incognito or uh what's the what's the firefox word for it i never remember but the basically the browser where it doesn't know who you are and make sure that link still works just realized one of the things i meant to show i missed in my demo so since we have a few minutes i'll go ahead and show one more thing i just wanted to give you guys a look at what editing a story actually looks like for those of you who haven't done it before my apologies for missing that so when you come into a story map and you're editing it has um a very nice user interface for adding text of course there we go there's my internet catching up all right so it has a great interface for editing the text and changing the settings and once you're down in the story you'll see a little plus appearing as you move your cursor right so that little plus is where you can add things it's pretty much constantly throughout you go to the spot where you want to add and you get a whole bunch of different things that you can choose you could add more text you can add buttons you can add separators you can add maps images image galleries video audio which is amazing and embed which pretty much means you can put any app that you've built right on in here swipes to look at different maps timelines which are now in beta which is another way to look at some of the data over time right and then sideshows slideshows and side cars which are just different geogra different visual representations of ways that the page will scroll a slide show goes scrolling side to side horizontally and the sidecar is vertically so what you can do is you simply choose the one that you're interested in doing and that part gets added now you can go ahead and add that image for example i have an image over on my other screen well i did let me click back to it quickly just browsing to grab an image so that you can see what that looks like there it is here's one and you can just drag it and drop it right on in it's going to go ahead and upload it it gets some information if you want it to link to a website or things like that you can do that here and then you can go ahead and add your image when you add it it'll appear right where you've placed it and you'll see you now have some different options you can do you can choose to have the image be small in which case it sometimes moves to find a spot next to text let's see where it ended up so that was a bad choice today oh here we go it's a little bit hard to see with the refresh there so it's made it small on this side you can choose to put it to the right as well you can also make it bigger right it's it's up to you so what i wanted to emphasize here is just that in the story map one of the great things is you're not having to write any code to do these things it is a click and configure type of experience but you do actually have a lot of choices you can make to make it look like your own you're also able to do things here's where you can share it actually since we were asking about the sharing here's where you pick those choices and then it'll help you if you need to set other sharing as well and then in the design tab you can choose do you want navigation you can get the sections or the headers or not did you want a different theme do we want to make the whole page look different these are up to you and you can actually create your own as well so you can take your own brand and your own page and really make the story map look like your own in quite an easy uh just a click and configure experience so how do you guys smell the questions come through perfect go for it so is offline data collection possible in survey123 great so that's a great question so survey123 you actually have a couple options so you can use survey123 when you're collecting data you can use a web browser or you can use an app now if you're using the web browser and you're offline you're going to have to be really careful right because you're using a browser the whole idea of a browser is it's a connected it's a connected interface so you could put some data in not close your browser and go hit submit once you're back in the classroom but there's a little bit of risk there if you're using the survey123 field app there is an offline experience now just right out of the box it's very easy to get it to where you can collect that data it's a little trickier to set it up so that while you're collecting you can see a map like a base map of where you're at where you are at as well but if your project needs that you can configure that and i don't remember if that link was in the list i've already posted in the chat but we have a story that teaches how to do that that i can share so another question so are we finding the use of mobile phones to collect gps data working well i'd say probably are yeah i mean again that's going to depend on your project right so what do you mean by working well are you collecting where's the track at my school and where are the classrooms you're going to be fine because the the limitation when you're talking about a mobile phone is that the gps chip in it is not going to be the same as a gps chip that's like on the little antennas you see people carry around right so a phone is generally like at the best more like five eight kind of feet that kind of range whereas those others can get even down to the centimeter so if what you're trying to map is on a very small scale and things are close together the cell phone's probably not going to cut it but if what you're mapping is a little bit broader or if you're not worried about that exact position you'll be just fine on a phone yeah another question related to the story maps i think some one of the little functions you saw which is the new um timeline yeah block in story map so someone's asking is it someone to google's historic imagery timeline and it's i think is it is it similar to google's historical timeline imagery i think it's a different thing though so i think the thing in the story map the uh the timeline is just right so you can string events together so 1960 this happened 1965 that happened if you want to look at historical imagery there's another app called wayback so if you just google esri wayback imagery that will give you an older imagery as well and there's also the sentinel 2 app or if you search for landsat and esri you'll find a whole imagery there as well yeah thank you does the school package include tracker so does the school package include tracker i'm not going to give you a 100 sure answer on that one i know it is something that is in progress i'm not sure the state that it's in because the licensing on tracker itself is changing so tracker is being included with the bundle of field apps that includes field maps survey one two three quick capture all of those so it's just a matter of when that transition happens in terms of also getting that into school licenses so it is something we're aware of if that's something you're looking for for your school please send an email to schools esri.com and we'll be able to get you the current information on how to do that or when tommy's saying nope so is that to that question okay there's a question there if so if track is not included how how would you how could you record your uh location continuously okay so what you could do in survey one two three you could have as line streaming right or not streaming but you could be collecting a line at the same time quick capture is actually a better example so with quick capture you could start a line recording and it would just track you as you're walking and collect that and then you'd still be able to drop points along the way that is one of the use cases for it the difference between tracker and that is that tracker is a different type of service behind the scenes that's much more optimized for performance and battery use so you'll be getting a little harder hit on those things but you would be able to see where people had been while collecting do we have a uh a worksheet on actually structuring a spreadsheet of data you know if we want to go and collect or make a csv file of data do we have any any resources on that yeah so we did a lot more about setting up that data and that data collection in the previous hour and so that will be recorded and available so if you're curious about that process of just setting up your data collection i recommend watching that one later so i was going to answer directly to carly's question carly so if you use survey123 it automatically collects the data and maps it for you so you don't have you don't have to upload the data or put it into a spreadsheet it's already automatically done for you yep yeah carly so it's a drag-and-drop experience what you can picture is google forms with a map right so you don't need to do that spreadsheet yourself again unless i've missed a question is it is it possible to represent data in a 3d all right so that's going to depend on how you've set up your data you can set up your data to be z-aware right which means having that elevation attribute on it and field maps does collect and honor that but you've got to set it up right or if you did have a you could even take a spreadsheet of data and if you map that or if you then need to turn it into a feature service or if you just had some data in survey one two three that had to say for instance it was um a number of shoes you have coming back to your example kylie you could actually take that into scene and you can actually use that attribute to extrude the point up to uh uh to a certain height as well so you or you could yeah you could use extrusion inside the the 3d scene viewer as well with your attributes right so for example if you wanted people with bigger feet to have higher points and show kind of the size of the shoe in relation as well you can do that can you make a copy can you copy a story map with the same maps images etcetera included in the copy so copying story maps gets a little bit tricky um because if i was to ask you what you want to have happen when i copy your story map and i asked five people i'd probably get five different answers so it's one of the things that esri is working on right now is a better way to be copying story maps but some people want a copy of everything in the story their own layer their own map and their ownership of the story other people are looking to edit the story around the same map or layer perhaps it's a living atlas layer or map right and so we're working on it but it's not quite there to where you can easily do that the function's there to duplicate a story map again it's that's different to copying it's just right yep so you can duplicate but then you're not you are getting i'm not sure with the question if you mean do you want the same maps or did you want copies of the maps duplicate it's like a save as for story maps yep let's save as so those maps and layers say unchanged and they're in it's in your same account all right well we are right at the hour i appreciate everyone who joined us for this part if you missed the first part but are curious about data collection they will be posted in the recordings later this one will also be posted if you missed something and want to hear it again or if you have follow up questions please go ahead and email us at schools esri.com and thank you
