Tutorial: Add features as GeoJSON

Learn how to add features from a feature service to a scene.

Add features as GeoJSON using API key authentication

Features are a type of geographic data that contain a geometry and attributes. They are typically hosted in an ArcGIS feature service. You can query a feature service to return features formatted as GeoJSON.

This tutorial explains how to get features from a feature service with ArcGIS REST JS, then display them in your CesiumJS application as a GeoJsonDataSource. The tutorial uses three different feature layers, containing points, lines, and polygons.

The three layers you will use are:

Prerequisites

Steps

Get the starter app

Select a type of authentication below and follow the steps to create a new application.

You can choose one of the following to create a new CodePen:

  • Option 1: Complete the Display a scene tutorial; or,
  • Option 2: Start from the Display a scene tutorial .

Set up authentication

Create developer credentials in your portal for the type of authentication you selected.

Create a new API key credential with the correct privileges to access the resources used in this tutorial.

  1. Go to the Create an API key tutorial and create an API key with the following privilege(s):
    • Privileges
      • Location services > Basemaps
    • Item access
      • Note: If you are using your own custom data layer for this tutorial, you need to grant the API key credentials access to the layer item. Learn more in Item access privileges.
  2. Copy the API key access token to your clipboard when prompted.

Set developer credentials

Use the API key or OAuth developer credentials created in the previous step in your application.

  1. Add <script> elements in the HTML <body> and create an accessToken variable to store your access token. Set YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN with the access token you previously copied from your API key credentials.

Get a Cesium ion access token

All Cesium applications must use an access token provided through Cesium ion. This token allows you to access assets such as Cesium World Terrain in your application.

  1. Go to your Cesium ion dashboard to generate an access token. Copy the key to your clipboard.

  2. Create a cesiumAccessToken variable and replace YOUR_CESIUM_ACCESS_TOKEN with the access token you copied from the Cesium ion dashboard.

Add point features

Point features are typically displayed on top of all other layers. Use arcgisRest.queryFeatures to query the Trailheads feature service and add features to the scene as GeoJSON.

  1. Go to the Trailheads URL and browse the properties of the layer. Make note of the layer's Name, Type, and Fields.

  2. In CodePen, define a variable to store the URL of the feature service.

  3. Call the arcgisRest.queryFeatures operation to make an authenticated request to the Trailheads feature service. Set the f property to geojson to format the response as GeoJSON.

Add polyline features

Line features are typically displayed below points. Use arcgisRest.queryFeatures to query the Trails feature service and add features to the scene as GeoJSON.

  1. Go to the Trails URL and browse the properties of the layer. Make note of the layer's Name, Type, and Fields.

  2. In CodePen, define a variable to store the URL of the feature service.

Add polygon features

Polygon features are typically displayed below lines and points. Use arcgisRest.queryFeatures to query the Parks and Open Spaces feature service and add features to the scene as GeoJSON.

  1. Go to the Parks and Open Spaces URL and browse the properties of the layer. Make note of the layer's Name, Type, and Fields.

  2. In CodePen, define a variable to store the URL of the feature service.
