Legacy issues can be difficult to overcome…

Live Feeds Weather and Disaster Information

Why Migrate?• These new services no longer require subscriptions. This free and open data continues Esri’s commitment to

supporting emergency management and disaster preparedness around the world.

• These services will auto-scale within the Microsoft Azure cloud architecture to meet high-demand events, such

as landfalling hurricanes.

• The new services will update displays automatically in the browser without any interaction to override a cached

display.

• Improvements in hosted feature layer technology allow for more informative web maps by allowing users to

create unique displays and popups from attributes across the different layers using FeatureSets.

• More close integration across the ArcGIS platform, including more clear workflows in ArcGIS Pro, Online,

Insights, Dashboards, etc.

• Older map services will eventually be deprecated.
