Description

This is a component of Oriented Imagery Classic, which is a community-supported, add-in solution for managing and visualizing imagery as a part of your GIS. The oriented imagery capability is being integrated directly into the ArcGIS system; read this blog to learn more. Once the integrated version of the oriented imagery capability reaches parity with the Classic version, the Classic version will be retired.

Oriented Imagery Classic allows users to manage, visualize, and explore imagery that is taken at any angle, including oblique, panoramic, street-level, and bubble imagery. Explore the gallery of sample Oriented Imagery Classic web apps to see how the Oriented Imagery Classic viewer works.

The Oriented Imagery Classic Management Tools are used to create and manage oriented imagery catalogs (OICs), which are a prerequisite for visualizing or sharing your own oriented imagery collection. Use the tools to create an OIC, add images, manage properties, and publish it to your ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise portal.

The Management Tools are intended for users to create and manage OICs. To visualize and explore oriented imagery catalogs in ArcGIS Pro, you’ll need to install the Oriented Imagery Classic add-in for ArcGIS Pro

For developer resources related to Oriented Imagery Classic apps and the Oriented Imagery Classic API, visit the Oriented Imagery Classic GitHub repo.  The GitHub repository is where you will find the underlying schema for Oriented Imagery Classic catalogs.

        Hi, I'm getting the same error as rafis_AG. Using ArcGIS Pro 3.1.3 and installed the OIC addin and the management toolbox. But the toolbox is empty and want me to repair it but nothing happens when I do so. Any solutions?

        Hello, according to OI.xml file I have defined in my xml configuration file properties key pairs to save in the OIC file. But it seems that the MDCS scripts does not take care of this settings or the syntax I have used is wrong. This is for example what I wrote in my xml file: <Property> <properties>Copyright:text 'XXXXX';Copyright:url 'www.xxxxx.com'</properties> </Property> I suspect that OICProperties of MDCS_UC.py script does not convert the input string of the property key pairs according to the correct parameter syntax expected by the Property tool of the ManageOrientedImagery toolbox. Any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated.

        how can I automate the process of OIC generation and publishing to update the data the OIC

        dougbrowning Item Owner commented 2 years ago Delete Reply

        When I try and add images via a FeatureService URL the tools wants a Username and password but there is no where to enter one. It should just use my credentials from Pro since we use 2 factor anyway. UN and pass are not going to work. I tried editing the code but no luck. Any input here? thanks
