This overview examines the use of ArcGIS Online for watershed management, highlighting its pros and cons for groups like the Clinton County Soil & Water Conservation District. While some may prefer ArcMap for editing and imports, ArcGIS Online offers features such as direct file access from the web, interactive presentations, and various base maps. Despite limitations like a 1,000-feature import cap and limited labeling options, it provides valuable tools for data management, privacy considerations, and extensive resource material. Discover the potential for collaboration and visualization in watershed projects.
