Velocity

Since version: 1.12

The Velocity profile allows analysts to use expressions as input parameters to real-time and big data analytics tools. These expression parameters are used in selected tools to calculate field values, enrich features, detect incidents, buffer features, and more. This profile is only used in ArcGIS Velocity.

Context

The following products implement this profile:

Spatial reference

The spatial reference of the expression's data source1 determines the execution context's spatial reference.

Time zone

The execution context's default time zone is UTC.

Profile variables
