The speed in which the data is displayed in the application is determined by the request and response time. Identify geometry that causes maps to draw slowlyĪrcGIS Online web apps request spatial and attribute information from operational layers (web services) to display and visualize data in the application. This blog covers how to identify slow-drawing geometry in operational layers and some tips and tricks for using hosted tile layers. Tile layers support fast visualization of large datasets using a collection of pre-created map images or tiles. Make tile layers your operational layer type of choice to optimize drawing performance of complex geometries at small scales.
Complex global geometries can sometimes be slow to draw in web apps, especially if the data includes multiple countries with islands, long coastlines, and jagged boundaries.
