AGSFeatureLayer Class Reference

Description

A layer that can visualize vector/feature data.

Feature layers display feature data from an online AGSServiceFeatureTable source, or from offline sources such as AGSGeodatabaseFeatureTable, AGSShapefileFeatureTable, or AGSGeoPackageFeatureTable. Feature layers can be used to display, select and query features in a layer. If the underlying feature service or table supports editing, you can use it with a feature layer as a basis for editing geometry, attributes, and attachments. Feature layers can also be used to store features associated with a utility network.

To display features in an AGSFeatureCollectionTable, use AGSFeatureCollectionLayer instead.

Features are retrieved as needed by the app. Features can be downloaded from a sync-enabled feature service when the device is connected and cached locally for use when the device is offline. Edits can then be synchronized back to the service.

Functional characteristics:

The following sources can be rendered using a feature layer:

• Feature service - backed by a feature service table. The feature data from the service is cached locally in the table. New features are retrieved automatically when you navigate the map. The local table cache is discarded when the layer is disposed. If sync is enabled, features can be created, edited, and pushed to the server.

• Geodatabase - backed by a geodatabase feature table. The geodatabase can be a replica of a feature service, which allows synchronizing with a feature service, or taking the content of a feature service offline. Use a geodatabase sync task to synchronize the geodatabase with the service. The geodatabase can also be a mobile geodatabase created by ArcGIS Pro. Mobile geodatabases cannot be synced and use a default renderer.

• Shapefile - backed by a shapefile feature table. Uses a feature layer to show the contents of shapefiles (.shp).

• Geopackage - backed by a geopackage feature table. This uses a feature layer to render the tables in a GeoPackage (.gpkg). A GeoPackage is a data source that conforms to the OGC GeoPackage specification. Geopackage feature tables can be edited and saved, but can't support sync, because there is no backing feature service. ArcGIS Runtime supports GeoPackage versions 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2.

• Web Feature Service (WFS) - backed by a WFS feature table. You can populate the table using Runtime query parameters or raw XML-encoded GetFeature queries. A WFS feature table only supports manual cache feature request mode. Runtime supports OGC WFS versions 2.0.0 and 2.0.2.

WFS server implementations are inconsistent in how they expect coordinates to be formatted. Some return and expect coordinates in (x,y) order, while others expect (y,x). Runtime guesses the correct order by default. This behavior can be configured with the AGSWFSFeatureTable::axisOrder and AGSWFSFeatureTable::filterAxisOrder properties.

• OGC API Features - Backed by an OGC feature collection table. You can populate the table using Runtime query parameters. A OGC feature collection table only supports manual cache feature request mode. Runtime supports OGC API - Features - Part 1 and OGC API - Features - Part 2.

Individual features can be queried and filtered based on spatial queries or SQL queries. Introduced at 100.3.0, string comparisons for features queried in service feature tables are case insensitive.

The features displayed in an AGSFeatureLayer object are reprojected to match the AGSGeoModel::spatialReference property, if necessary. Local tables cannot be reprojected automatically.

Feature layers expose an AGSFeatureLayer::unsupportedJSON property that, for feature layers based on a feature service, returns a dictionary of values known to the supported web map specification but not explicitly exposed through the Runtime API. This allows you to access information that was saved with the layer, but not used by Runtime. Feature layers also provide an AGSFeatureLayer::unknownJSON property to return JSON that was not recognized.

Performance characteristics:

As full feature information is cached locally in a geodatabase, shapefile, or GeoPackage, and features are drawn natively, this layer type offers excellent display performance when zooming and panning the map within the extent of cached features. Querying features is also efficient, enabling app functions such as real-time updates of query results in a map.

The local cache must be initially created, which can be resource-intensive for the server. The initial download to the device may require extensive network usage and subsequent local device storage. App memory usage increases with the number and complexity of the features cached. Network usage can be eliminated by provisioning the cache directly to the device in advance.

Feature tables backed by a service define three feature request modes. The table's feature request mode controls how and when features are requested from the service:

• On interaction cache - Features are requested automatically for the visible map or scene extent. As the user pans and zooms, features are cached locally. If the user returns to an area where features have already been loaded, the table won't need to download those features again.

• Manual cache - Features must be manually populated using a call to AGSServiceFeatureTable::populateFromServiceWithParameters:clearCache:outfields:completion:. Once populated, all queries are made against the local table only. AGSServiceFeatureTable::populateFromServiceWithParameters:clearCache:outfields:completion: can be called again to retrieve more features from the service.

• On interaction, no cache - Features are requested automatically for the visible map extent. As the user pans and zooms, features outside the visible extent are not cached and must be downloaded again each time.

loadWithCompletion:

- (void) loadWithCompletion: (nullable void(^)(NSError *__nullable error))  completion

requiredinherited

Loads data for the object asynchronously. The completion block is invoked upon completion.

You can call this method any number of times, however only one attempt is made to load the data. If it is already loading, it will just continue to load (i.e. not force a reload). If it has already loaded successfully, the completion block will be invoked right away. If it has already failed to load, the completion block will be invoked right away with error previously encountered. This method supports multiple callers and will call them all back on completion. However, each caller's completion block will be invoked once and only once.

Parameters

completion

block that is invoked when object loads successfully or fails to load. An error is passed to the block if the object fails to load.

Note

The completion block is always invoked on the main thread.

Since

100

See also

- cancelLoad to cancel loading

- retryLoadWithCompletion: to force reload

onLoadStatusChanged

- (void) onLoadStatusChanged

Never call this method directly. The framework calls this method on a background thread when AGSLoadable::loadStatus changes is called. Subclasses can optionally implement this to know when their loading status has changed.

Since

Provided by category AGSLoadableBase(ForSubclassEyesOnly).

resetFeaturesVisible

- (void) resetFeaturesVisible

Reset the visibility of all features back to their original state.

Since

100

resetRenderer

- (void) resetRenderer

Reset the renderer back to the original renderer provided by the featureTable. This is useful if you, for instance, change the renderer and then want to revert back to the original.

Since

100

retryLoadWithCompletion:

- (void) retryLoadWithCompletion: (nullable void(^)(NSError *__nullable error))  completion

requiredinherited

Tries to reload when an object has failed to load. This method should be called judiciously. It should be called when:

1. you didn't have network connectivity earlier when it failed and you want to retry now that you have connectivity
2. the server was down earlier when it failed and you want to retry
3. the request is taking too long and you want to cancel it and retry, in which case you will first call cancelLoad and then this method

If the data hasn't started loading, it will start loading. If it is already loading, it will just continue to load. If it has already loaded successfully, calls back right away. If it has already failed to load, tries again. This method supports multiple callers and will call them all back on completion. However, each caller's completion block will be invoked once and only once.

Parameters

completion

block that is invoked when object loads successfully or fails to load. An error is passed to the block if the object fails to load.

Note

The completion block is always invoked on the main thread.
