Create an ArcGIS map that contains both 1) base map 2) TopoJSON file
Hi anastasiyaG97 ,
Firstly, you need to import a TopoJSON file.
For example, I used this json file.
{
"type":"Topology",
"objects":{
"Espiras":{
"type":"GeometryCollection",
"geometries":[
{
"type":"Point1",
"coordinates":[
538036,
487702
],
"properties":{
"Elevation":8.29999999926,
"RefName":"(2012)",
"Text":"(2012)"
}
},
{
"type":"Point2",
"coordinates":[
500000,
400000
],
"properties":{
"Elevation":8,
"RefName":"(2013)",
"Text":"(2013)"
}
}
]
}
}
}Then edit it in Query Editor. You may use power query to complete it. Don’t forget to click Close & Apply when you finish it.
let
Source = Json.Document(File.Contents("C:\Users\eadsc\Desktop\test.json")),
objects = Source[objects],
Espiras = objects[Espiras],
geometries = Espiras[geometries],
#"Converted to Table" = Table.FromList(geometries, Splitter.SplitByNothing(), null, null, ExtraValues.Error),
#"Expanded Column1" = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(#"Converted to Table", "Column1", {"type", "coordinates", "properties"}, {"Column1.type", "Column1.coordinates", "Column1.properties"}),
#"Extracted Values" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Expanded Column1", {"Column1.coordinates", each Text.Combine(List.Transform(_, Text.From), ","), type text}),
#"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Extracted Values",{"Column1.properties"})
in
#"Removed Columns"Now you get a table with two fields, open the ArcGIS map visual and use these fields.

Hi Eads,
Thank you for your fast response and explanation. One mor equestion, is it possible to achieve the similar TopoJSON file when you do not have point coordinates information.
"type":"Point1", "coordinates":[ 538036, 487702]In my test case i can see polygon and type properties:
"type":"MultiPolygon","properties":{"Property_Name":"Southeast","Name_ID":"ABCD"}},{"arcs":[[-16,443,444,445,446]]}
