jirikadlec2[CodePlex] Suggestions for the ArcGIS Online plug-in:
display a list of data services from the ArcGIS Online quotObservations Catalogquot
User can select one or more services from this list - the associated data cart data set will be shown as a layer in the map using the catalog-specified icon with icon size proportional to Value Count
When the layer is added to the map, it can be used as a quotData Sitesquot layer (pop-up context menu items are handled by the Data Download plug-in)
Each ArcGIS online layer has a quotrefreshquot context menu that can be used to refresh the displayed sites from the ArcGIS Online service
When a project is saved, the list of active ArcGIS Online service layers is also saved.
Suggested implementation:
add support for point feature layers from the quotObservations Catalogquot grouping
Add support for other layers
Integration in HydroDesktop: Two possible options have been suggested - (A) integrate as an addditional data source in search or metadata fetcher
(B) integrate as a separate plugin launched on the main toolbar and located next to the quotOnline Basemapquot tool button
