Studio Web provides you with four methods to upload layer data to your map:
•Add Layer from an Esri Portal - add layer data from a layer that lives in your Esri portal.
•Add Layer from URL - add layer data from a publicly-accessible URL.
•Guided Add Layer from File - add layer data from an external file via an interface that guides you through the process. You can review, adjust, and configure the file data.
•Import Layer from a DXF File - add a Drawing Exchange Format (DXF) file.
•Import Layer from an FGDB - add layer data from a File Geodatabase (FGDB).
•Import Layer from a KML File - add a Keyhole Markup Language (KML) file.
•Import Layer from an LPKX File - add later data and styling from a Layer Package (LPKX) file.
•Quick Add Layer from File - add layer data from an external file. Web automatically detects and applies default settings.
When you add layers, they are temporary and only exist for the length of the browser session.
See Upload Limits for information on the maximum file size for imported layer data.
Data Requirements
To use the Add Layer from File methods, the CSV or XLSX file must contain one of the following:
a.A point geometry with header information and columns named either:
•x, y, z
•x, y
•lat, lon
•lat, long
•latitude, longitude
b.A geometry with or without header information encoded in either:
c.A geometry column. The geometry format must be specified in its own column within the XLSX file.
Mixed Geometry Types
The following are important to note if your data file contains mixed geometry types:
•Each import process can add only one geometry format (for example, all points, all lines, or all polygons).
• If your XLSX file contains multiple geometry formats (for example, both points and polygons), you must import the file multiple times. You must select a single geometry format to import during each process.
•If you import a file with mixed geometry formats and do not select a specific geometry format to use (for example, in the Guided Add Layer From File method), the tool will automatically select and import the first geometry format it finds in the file.
Upload Limits
VertiGIS Studio Web does not impose a maximum file size for imported data. Uploads are limited by the capabilities and configuration of the hosting environment rather than by the application itself.
The maximum upload size depends on factors such as:
•Available browser memory and client-side processing capacity.
•Web server request size limits.
•Reverse proxies, load balancers, web application firewalls (WAFs), and other network infrastructure that may enforce request size or timeout limits.
•Request body limits configured in the application's hosting framework.
Large or complex datasets may fail to upload if any of these infrastructure limits are exceeded. If uploads fail, verify the browser and hosting environment are configured to support the required file sizes.
