Use Reclaimed Water Data Management

After deploying, organizations with no reclaimed water data can immediately begin mapping their reclaimed water systems using GPS or digitizing data with web or desktop software. Organizations with existing spatial reclaimed water data can load it and begin using the apps.

In this topic, you will learn how to use the solution by assuming the role of a user and performing the following workflows.

Add data in the field

In these workflows, you will be taking the role of a mobile worker collecting data in the field. If you have a mobile-centric workforce, this may be the best option to collect new data or validate existing data.

Collect valves

As a mobile worker, you can add hydrants and valves from the field.

1. Open the ArcGIS Field Maps app and sign in to your ArcGIS organization.
2. Tap the Reclaimed Water Field Editor map.
3. Tap Add .
4. From the list of features, search for Service Valve by swiping up or typing Service Valve in the filter search bar.
   If the service valve is added to an inaccurate location, or you want to move the point manually, move the crosshairs to the correct location by panning the map and tapping Update Point. This moves the added service valve to the specified location.
5. Fill in any attributes and tap Submit.
6. Next, add a system valve at the correct location by repeating steps 3-6 and searching for System Valve.

   Note:

   Move to a safe location to fill in the attributes; the added system valve remains in its original location.

Add data in the web

In the workflows below, you will be taking the role of an editor adding data in ArcGIS Online. The workflows explain how to add data in the web, use the provided dashboard, and add and manage map notes.

In these workflows, you will assume the role of an editor who wants to edit data in ArcGIS Pro.

Note:

Ensure that you have created the Reclaimed Water Manager ArcGIS Pro project before completing the following workflows.

Add service connection and tap

As an editor, you want to use a web app to add service connections and taps to the map.

1. In a browser, sign in to your ArcGIS organization and browse to the Reclaimed Water Editor web map.
2. From the item page, click Open in Web Editor to launch the editing app.

   Tip:

3. Click Snapping options on the general toolbar to configure snapping for the web app.

   Tip:

   For example, check the check boxes to turn on snapping for valve and sprinkler.

4. In the Create features pane, search for Service Connection, and select Service Connection from the list of options.

   Note:

   If the a layer is grayed out, ensure that you are zoomed in close enough to add the layer. Features are scale dependent.

5. Draw the service connection to the correct location
6. In the Create features pane, update the attributes.
7. Click Create.
8. Next, add a tap to the map by repeating steps 4-6 and searching for Fitting

Add a service

As an editor, you want to use a web app to connect a service connection, service valve, and tap using a service.

1. In a browser, sign in to your ArcGIS organization and browse to the Reclaimed Water Editor web map.
2. From the item page, click Open in Web Editor to launch the editing app.

   Tip:

3. In the Create features pane, search for Service, and select Service from the list of options.

   Note:

   If the a layer is grayed out, ensure that you are zoomed in close enough to add the layer. Features are scale dependent.

4. Draw a line from the tap to the service valve, hover to snap to the service valve and click to add a vertice. Continue by snapping to the service connection and double-clicking to finish the sketch.
5. In the Create features pane, update the attributes.
6. Click Create.

Use the reclaimed water dashboard

As a member of the organization, you want to have a comprehensive view of your reclaimed water assets.

1. In a browser, sign in to your ArcGIS organization and browse to the Reclaimed Water Dashboard app.
2. From the item page, click Open Dashboard.
3. View the reclaimed water statistics.

Add data in ArcGIS Pro

In the workflows below, you will be taking the role of an editor adding data in ArcGIS Pro. If you have known locations of assets or as-built drawings, the following workflows demonstrate using ArcGIS Pro to add data to your reclaimed water system.

Note:

The first time you open the Reclaimed Water Data Manager map in ArcGIS Pro, the layers will show as broken. Follow the steps to Configure the Reclaimed Water Data Manager ArcGIS Pro project to fix your layers.

Add a hydrant service

As an editor, you can add a hydrant service to the map in ArcGIS Pro.

1. Start ArcGIS Pro and open the Reclaimed Water Data Manager project that you created previously.
2. On the Edit tab, in the Snapping group, click Snapping to turn snapping on.
3. On the ribbon, click the Edit tab, and then, in the Features group, click Create.

   The Create Features pane appears.

4. In the Create Features pane search field, type Hydrant, and then select Hydrant then add it to the map.
5. On the Map tab, in the Selection group, click Attributes and fill in the attributes.
6. In the Create Features pane search field, type Service Valve, and then select Service Valve then add it to the map.
7. On the Map tab, in the Selection group, click Attributes and fill in the attributes.
8. In the Create Features pane search field, type Fitting, and then select Fitting then add it to the map.
9. On the Map tab, in the Selection group, click Attributes and fill in the attributes.
10. In the Create Features pane search field, type Hydrant Service, and then select Hydrant Service
11. Add the service to the map by hovering over the Fitting to snap to it and then click to start digitizing. Next, snap to the Service Valve and click to add a vertice, and finish the sketch by snapping and double-clicking the Hydrant.
12. On the Map tab, in the Selection group, click Attributes and fill in the attributes.
13. On the Edit tab, in the Manage Edits group, click Save.

Add features from an as-built drawing

As an editor, you can add assets such as fittings and mains to the system from an as-built drawing.

1. In the Catalog pane, expand Maps, and then double-click Reclaimed Water Data Manager to open the map.
2. On the Map tab, in the Layers group, click Add Data.
3. Browse to the location of the as-built drawing, select it, and click OK to add it to the map.
4. In the Contents pane, select the image.

   The Raster Layer contextual tab appears on the ribbon.

5. On the Appearance tab, in the Effects group, change Layer Transparency to 50%.
