Find features in a sublayer based on attributes and location.
Use case
Sublayers of an ArcGISMapImageLayer
may expose a ServiceFeatureTable
through a table
property. This allows you to perform the same queries available when working with a table from a FeatureLayer
: attribute query, spatial query, statistics query, query for related features, etc. An image layer with a sublayer of counties can be queried by population to only show those above a minimum population.
How to use the sample
Specify a minimum population in the input field (values under 1810000 will produce a selection in all layers) and tap the query button to query the sublayers in the current view extent. After a short time, the results for each sublayer will appear as graphics.
How it works
- Create an
ArcGISMapImageLayer
object using the URL of an image service. - After loading the layer, get the sublayer you want to query with
(ArcGISMapImageSublayer) layer.getSubLayers().get(index)
. - Load the sublayer, and then get its
ServiceFeatureTable
withsublayer.getTable()
. - Create a
QueryParameters
object. You can usequeryParameters.setWhereClause(sqlQueryString)
to query against a table attribute and/or setqueryParameters.setGeometry(extent)
to limit the results to an area of the map. - Call
sublayerTable.queryFeaturesAsync(queryParameters)
to get aFeatureQueryResult
with features matching the query. The result is an iterable of features.
About the data
The ArcGISMapImageLayer
in the map uses the "USA" map service as its data source. This service is hosted by ArcGIS Online, and is composed of four sublayers: "states", "counties", "cities", and "highways". Since the cities
, counties
, and states
tables all have a POP2000
field, they can all execute a query against that attribute and a map extent.
