• Title
• Summary
• Instructions
• Tags
• Owner
• Date Created
• Focused Imagery Layer and Image IDs
• Imagery
• Webmap and Operational Layers (if applicable)

In addition, if you view the project details of an imagery project, you also see the project capabilities like observation layers. You can open the imagery project or return to the project list from this view.

Edit the project details

If you are the project owner, you can make textual edits to your project's details. Editable fields have an edit button. These fields include Project Name, Project Summary, Project Description, and Analyst Instructions. To edit project details, complete the following steps:

1. Browse to the Project Details page of the desired project.
2. Click the Edit button on the Project Name, Project Summary, Project Description, or Analyst Instructions field.

4. Click Save to update the details, or click Cancel to revert to the original text.

Add an observation layer to your imagery project

You can add an existing observation layer to your imagery project to collect observations from your imagery or create a new observation layer to fit your project needs.

Choose an existing observation layer

To add an existing observation layer, complete the following steps:

1. After you create or open your project, click the More menu.
2. Click Imagery Project Details. You can also find the imagery project details through the projects list by clicking View Details.

   The Imagery Project Details page appears.

3. Click Select observation layers for this project.
4. Click an existing observation layer. You can also search for layers by most recent, most viewed, highest rated, title, and owner.
5. Click Select. Click Cancel to return to the Imagery Project Details page.

   The new layer appears in Observation Layers in this Project, and the project type updates from a base imagery project to an observation imagery project.

   Note:

   A dialog box appears if the layer you chose is invalid or is not time enabled. If the layer you chose is not time enabled and you are the layer owner, you can enable the time settings. You can also dismiss the warning, but the layer will have limited time-based capabilities in your imagery project.

Create an observation layer

To create an observation layer, complete the following steps:

1. After you create or open your project, click the More menu.
2. Click View Project Details. You can also find the imagery project details through the projects list by clicking View Details.

   The Imagery Project Details page appears.

3. Click Create New Observation Layer.
4. Provide information for the following details:
   • Layer Title (required)
   • Layer Geometry Type (required)
   • Layer Tags (required)

   Note:

   The spatial reference of the new observation layer is set to the spatial reference of the selected imagery in your project.

5. Choose to share your observation layer with your organization or to keep it private, and click Next.
6. Define the layer's geometry type by choosing Points, Polygons, or Lines.
7. Optionally, you can begin adding an additional field to the base schema by providing the following:
   • Field Name
   • Field Alias
   • Field Type

     You can also view the system-managed fields by turning Show system managed fields on or off.

8. Optionally, you can define a pick list (domain of coded values or range) for the new field by selecting Coded Values or Range.

   Note:

   A Range domain cannot be made for a new field of type String.

9. Enter a value for the Name and Code parameters for each domain in your pick list, ensuring you add each domain to the list.
10. After all domains are added to the new field, click Add Field.
11. Repeat steps 6 through 10 until all additional fields are added to the base schema.
12. Click Next when finished.
13. Choose your observation layer styling based on a single symbol by clicking Single Symbol or on unique values by clicking Unique Values.

    By default, the Single Symbol styling option is selected and is based on the geometry type you chose in the observation layer details step.

14. Choose the Single Symbol style properties for your layer:
    • Points—Size, style, color, outline, and transparency
    • Polygons—Outline, fill, outline width, and transparency
    • Lines—Color, width, and transparency
15. If Unique Values styling is desired, choose the Unique Values option to style your layer based on a coded value.

    Note:

    The Unique Values option is unavailable if your new observation layer does not contain any coded value domains. Range domains are not supported for styling.

16. Choose the field that you want to style your observation layer on that contains coded value domains from the Available Fields pick list.

    The coded values table is populated with all values in the selected field.

17. Click each style icon in the coded values table and change the style properties.
18. Click Next.
19. Review the summary of your choices and click Create to create the observation layer.

    A status indicator appears while your new observation layer is created.

20. After your new observation layer is created successfully, click Open Imagery Project to view your imagery project, click Edit Imagery Project Details to view the project details, or click Create Another Layer to add more layers.

    Note:

    If you choose to add more observation project layers, you return to the Add More Observation Project Layers step.

    A summary of the observation layers you created appears before you move to the next step.

21. Click Close to return to the Imagery Project Details page.

    The new layers appear in Observation Layers in this Project, and the project type updates from a base imagery project to an observation imagery project.

Change the project web map

Imagery projects are configured to use the default portal web map. However, you can change the project web map at any time in the project details.

1. After you create or open your project, click the More menu.
2. Click View Project Details.
