Add data from ArcGIS

Esri Maps for MicroStrategy works directly with your organization's ArcGIS subscription, allowing you to search for content within your organization and, if enabled by your administrator, search for public content published by the GIS community, including Esri, and local governments and agencies around the world. Adding data from ArcGIS is a quick and easy way to add content to your map to complement your existing MicroStrategy data. For example, you may have MicroStrategydata showing proposed store locations and want to add household income census data from ArcGIS for those areas to visually analyze trends.

With Esri Maps for MicroStrategy, you can search for map services, feature services, and web maps on ArcGIS to add to your map. Once added, they become layers in your map.

  1. Sign in to ArcGIS if you are not already signed in. For more information, see Sign in to ArcGIS.
  2. Click the Add data menu and click from ArcGIS.
  3. Search for a layer to add to the map in any of the following ways:
    • Enter one or more keywords and press Enter to search all of ArcGIS Online. If desired, you can click My organization to narrow your results.
    • Click on one of the popular search categories to browse available maps and services from Esri within that category.
    • Enter one or more keywords and click on a category to search within that category.
    • Use advanced keyword searches to narrow your results by specifying how you want to search for an item. To learn how, see Perform an advanced search.

    If your organization's administrator has restricted the ability to search for content outside of your organization, the search only returns results from your organization and the All results and My organization options will not be visible.

  4. Check the Zoom to data check box if you want the map to zoom to the full extent of the data you add.
  5. Find the service you want and click Add.

    A layer containing the data is added to the map and is listed in the Contents pane.
