@mathew_fuller Those services should work fine in QGIS. This might help youtu.be/KicAVuRWqxo?si…, thanks for the kind words

@SimonGIS Is there something similar for QGIS? Just starting out with GIS mapping (coming from an architecture background) finding it absolutely fascinating so far! Found your page and enjoying the content.

ABS Census data finally trickling though into the ArcGIS Living Atlas. More information in the feature layer items metadata, #d=2&rgnCode=AU&srt=modified&q=ABS" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">livingatlas.arcgis.com/en/browse/?q=A…

@tastrax The observation products do include a lat/lon field, so I could rely on this. My plan was assumption I would join back to a static layer of stations and update values, but need to re-think if I need logic to actually create them on the fly, whicm makes more sense for portable 1s

@SimonGIS The portables in Tassie dont appear in the list you linked. I know NSW has heaps of them as well (>20).

Looking for the 'source of truth' for BOM weather stations that align up to their observation products on FTP. I assumed it was this: bom.gov.au/climate/data/l… Missing quite a few.

@tastrax Thanks Phil. If stations move, I think I need to re-think my logic on checking the lat/lons then. This helps, thank you

@SimonGIS There are some portable stations that get moved around in Tassie - bom.gov.au/products/IDT60…

The BOM GIS2Web is a great service that can be used for ingesting in your GIS for any workflows around #cyclone #Alfred

Simple Automate flow to purge out old records from an #Arcgis Online feature service. Another process is archiving this data, but this could also be achieved in this flow.

I got really excited about mesh transforms, a new feature in ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript that allows us to animate 3D models, so I made a demo app and wrote all about it here: esri.com/arcgis-blog/pr….
