Schematic Identify

URL:

Methods:
POST
Version Introduced:
10.1

Description

The identify operation returns an identified results resource. It is performed on a Schematic Diagram Map resource. The result of this operation is an identify results resource.

Each identified result includes its name, layer ID, layer name, geometry and geometry type, and other attributes of that result as name-value pairs.

You can provide arguments to the identify operation as query parameters defined in the parameters table below.

Request parameters

ParameterDetails

f

The response format. The default response format is html .

Values: html | json

geometry

(Required)

Description: The geometry to identify on. The type of the geometry is specified by the geometryType parameter. The structure of the geometries is same as the structure of the JSON geometry objects returned by the ArcGIS REST API. In addition to the JSON structures, for points and envelopes, you can specify the geometries with a simpler comma-separated syntax.

Syntax:

JSON structures: geometryType=<geometryType>&geometry={geometry}

Point simple syntax: geometryType=esriGeometryPoint&geometry=<x>,<y>

Envelope simple syntax: geometryType=esriGeometryEnvelope&geometry=<xmin>,<ymin>,<xmax>,<ymax>

The coordinates must always use a period as the decimal separater even in countries where a comma is traditionally used.

geometryType

The type of geometry specified by the geometry parameter. The geometry type could be a point, a line, a polygon or an envelope. The default geometry type is a point (esriGeometryPoint ).

Values: esriGeometryPoint | esriGeometryMultipoint | esriGeometryPolyline | esriGeometryPolygon | esriGeometryEnvelope

sr

The well-known ID of the spatial reference of the input and output geometries as well as the mapExtent . If sr is not specified, the geometry and the mapExtent are assumed to be in the spatial reference of the map, and the output geometries are also in the spatial reference of the map.

layerDefs

Parameter kept for compatibility reason with the standard identify operation, but this parameter is always ignored when the identify is performed on a schematic diagram map.

time

The time instant or the time extent of the features to be identified.

Time instant

Syntax: time=<timeInstant>

Example: time=1199145600000 (1 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT)

Time extent

Syntax: time=<startTime>, <endTime>

Example: time=1199145600000, 1230768000000 (1 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT to 1 Jan 2009 00:00:00 GMT)

A null value specified for start time or end time will represent infinity for start or end time respectively.

layerTimeOptions

The time options per layer. Users can indicate whether or not the layer should use the time extent specified by the time parameter or not, whether to draw the layer features cumulatively or not and the time offsets for the layer.

layers

Parameter kept for compatibility reason with the standard identify operation, but this parameter is always ignored when the identify is performed on a schematic diagram map.

tolerance

(Required)

The distance in screen pixels from the specified geometry within which the identify should be performed. The value for the tolerance is an integer.

Example: tolerance=2

mapExtent

The extent or bounding box of the map currently being viewed. Unless the sr parameter has been specified, the mapExtent is assumed to be in the spatial reference of the map.

The mapExtent and the imageDisplay parameters are used by the server to determine the layers visible in the current extent. They are also used to calculate the distance on the map to search based on the tolerance in screen pixels.

Syntax:mapExtent=<xmin>, <ymin>, <xmax>, <ymax>

Example: mapExtent=-104,35.6,-94.32,41

imageDisplay

(Required)

Description: The screen image display parameters (width, height and DPI) of the map being currently viewed.

The mapExtent and the imageDisplay parameters are used by the server to determine the layers visible in the current extent. They are also used to calculate the distance on the map to search based on the tolerance in screen pixels.

Syntax: imageDisplay=<width>, <height>, <dpi>

Example: imageDisplay=600,550,96

returnGeometry

If true , the resultset will include the geometries associated with each result. The default is true .

Values: true | false

maxAllowableOffset

This option can be used to specify the maximum allowable offset to be used for generalizing geometries returned by the identify operation. The maxAllowableOffset is in the units of the sr . If sr is not specified then maxAllowableOffset is assumed to be in the unit of the spatial reference of the map.

Example: maxAllowableOffset=2

Example usage

The Schematic Identify operation on the schematic diagram which id is '1-1' under the S1_Schematics public sample Schematics service with geometry={"x":124978.301169419, "y":4077158.52904231, "spatialReference":{"wkid":102118}} , tolerance=2 and imageDisplay=451,968,96 returns one node schematic feature and its two connected link schematic features:
