Community event information can be accessed on a smartphone, tablet and desktop computer with the Event Locator application. Select a deployment method using ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS for Server and follow the steps below to publish the services required for the Event Locator application.

To implement the Event Locator application, complete the following steps:

1. Publish the CommunityEvents.mxd as a hosted feature service using ArcGIS Online or as a feature service using ArcGIS for Server.
2. Choose a geometry service. If you are using ArcGIS for Server and the geometry service has not started, start the geometry service. If you are using ArcGIS Online, use the geometry service provided by Esri or a geometry service from another ArcGIS for Server machine.
