Additional Information

This is a known limitation because the data for the Viewshed analysis is only available between -60 degrees south and 60 degrees north. The failing case is above 60 degrees north.

Workaround

Use the following instructions in ArcMap: 1. Open ArcMap, and sign in to ArcGIS Online. 2. Add points from a CSV table. 3. Open the Catalog window, and expand 'Ready-To-Use Services.' 4. Navigate to Elevation > Tools > Elevation > Viewshed. This tool outputs the expected result using the ArcGIS Online geoprocessing service.
