Properties and recognized semantic types

Analyst's Notebook Connector for Esri automatically recognizes that attributes with certain semantic types represent locations (or parts of locations). If your chart contains location information in attributes that the connector does not recognize, you can configure it to use those attributes instead.

The following table lists the names of Esri properties that can contain location information, and the semantic types of attributes whose values Esri automatically detects.
Esri property Used for Recognized semantic type

Datum Datum codes
Note: Only necessary if you do not want to use the WGS84 datum. This datum applies to all coordinates on chart items that do not have a specific datum set.
