Ramblers Scotland has a useful path mapping service. See e.g. https://www.ramblers.org.uk/what-we-care-about/scottish-paths-map
It used to be hosted by ESRI / arcgis but now seems to be hosted on the Spatial Hub by the Spatial Information Service. See e.g.
https://www.improvementservice.org.uk/news/october-2024/ramblers-scotland-p...
It's not clear when/why the move happened (probably some time in the latter part of 2024, as I know I used it via arcgis in about October, but looking again in Dec, it's moved to Spatial Hub)
The new version of the map is at: https://isshinyapps.shinyapps.io/RamblersWebMap/
My question revolves around when it was ESRI/arcgis, it was possible to build a url/link to go straight to a chosen location at a particular magnification/'level' e.g. (the url below now won't work for obvious reasons)
ramblersscotland.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=802b71d7aeba4766a3788874f9b87794&marker=-5.435447735621558%2C56.17673847846993%2C%2C%2C%2C&markertemplate=%7B%22title%22%3A184731%2C%22longitude%22%3A-5.435447735621558%2C%22latitude%22%3A56.17673847846993%2C%22isIncludeShareUrl%22%3Atrue%7D&level=13
(OK, maybe it wasn't a published 'feature', but it was available if you could find it, and it was very useful!)
The ability to link direct to a specific point at a specific level under ESRI/arcgis was very useful but is no longer available with Spatial Hub. Does anyone have any suggestions / insight into the Spatial Hub/ Spatial Information Service implementation to get a customised link to a specific location. Because having to magnify in and navigate each time to a specific location is a PITA and makes it really cumbersome (=not worth) using, if you know exactly where you want to be (e.g. your specified/favourite walking location)
Or perhaps a useful contact at Ramblers Scotland for the mapping project (not just a generic contact) but I don't expect much will get a response until mid January now.
TIA
