Publishing Your Map To ArcGIS Online The ArcGIS Maps for Office app enables you to share your layers and maps with others in or outside of your organization through ArcGIS. When you share a map in Excel, a web map is created on ArcGIS. This published map can be viewed in a browser and you can work on it in ArcGIS Online or Desktop like any other ArcGIS map. This process allows you to add a dynamic, interactive map to a PowerPoint slide. You can also publish individual layers from your map as geospatial datasets. Note that publishing a layer as a feature service will not include the other data in your map. Publishing your map will automatically publish each of your layers as a feature service that will be available to you and anyone you give permissions.
Note: You can update the map and republish it to ArcGIS by pressing Update shared map under the Tools menu and modifying the information you entered as needed.Adding Maps to PowerPoint The Maps for Office add-in provides two ways for exporting your map to PowerPoint. The first method creates a static image from your map to use in a PowerPoint presentation, attach in an email, or include in a report. The second method exports your map as a dynamic PowerPoint slide, capturing the interactive functionality for zooming, panning, and selecting data.
Note that the slide is not interactive unless you are actively in Slide Show mode and the map is activated. 12. Click to enter the Slide Show. Click the lock symbol to unlock the map and make it interactive. |
