Data Services is excited to announce that our NYU ArcGIS Online organization has migrated to the New Map Viewer in ArcGIS Online! This update aligns with Esri's commitment to providing innovative tools for creating and managing maps, and we are confident it will enhance your map-making experience.
What You Need to Know:
No work will be lost: All your existing maps and layers will remain intact and can still be found in your Content on the ArcGIS Online interface.
Flexibility to switch back: If you prefer, you can return to Map Viewer Classic at any time. To learn how, visit this Esri resource page on switching viewers.
Improved functionality: The New Map Viewer introduces a streamlined interface and enhanced tools designed to make your workflow more efficient.
We encourage you to explore the New Map Viewer and take advantage of its modern features. If you have any questions or need assistance, the Data Services GIS team is here to help.
Happy mapping!
Please keep in mind, the driving principle of this protocol is respect for individual research data and electronic security. This policy applies to transferring all NYU ArcGIS Online Organization items.
If you are the original owner of the item(s) initiating the transfer of ownership, please follow these steps:
A statement of consent (e.g., "I, [Original Owner's Full Name], give NYU Data Services permission to transfer ownership of [list of items] to [New Owner's Full Name].")
A clear list of items to be transferred (e.g., Web Maps, Dashboards, Feature Layers) including item titles and URLs.
Your ArcGIS Online username.
The New Owner must reply-all to the email with a statement of consent (be sure that data.services@nyu.edu is copied on the email!).
The email must include:
A statement of consent (e.g., "I, [New Owner's Full Name], accept ownership of [list of items] and give Data Services permission to transfer them to my account.")
Their ArcGIS Online username.
Once both emails are received, Data Services will transfer the items to the New Owner's account and confirm completion with both parties.
If you are the prospective [new] owner of the item(s) requesting the transfer of ownership, please follow these steps:
The New Owner must send an email to the Original Owner AND data.services@nyu.edu with the subject line: Request to Receive Ownership of ArcGIS Online Items.
The email must include:
A statement requesting transfer of specific items (e.g., "I, [New Owner's Full Name], request ownership of [list of items] currently owned by [Original Owner's Full Name].")
Your ArcGIS Online username.
The Original Owner must reply to the email giving their consent.
The email must include:
A statement of consent (e.g., "I, [Original Owner's Full Name], give Data Services permission to transfer ownership of [list of items] to [New Owner's Full Name].")
Their ArcGIS Online username.
Once both emails are received, Data Services will transfer the items to the New Owner's account and confirm completion with both parties.
For those exceptional situations in which you are unable to locate the owner or if the owner is unwilling to release their accounts contents, we will refer your case to the Chief Information Technology Office.
Please feel welcome to contact Data Services with any questions at data.services@nyu.edu.
