Find places in a bounding box

Learn how to perform a text-based search to find places within a bounding box.

A bounding box search finds places within an extent using the places service. An extent typically represents the visible area of a map. To perform a bounding box search, you use the places package from ArcGIS REST JS. With the results of the search, you can make another request to the service and return place attributes such as street address and telephone number.

In this tutorial, you use ArcGIS REST JS to perform a bounding box search based on the visible extent on the map and return details about each place. It includes starter code that uses Calcite components to create a basic search interface.

Prerequisites

Steps

Get the starter code

1. To get started, use this CodePen. It contains the Calcite Components necessary to create this application, as well as a blank Leaflet map.

Get an access token

You need an access token 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
     • Location services > Places

2. Copy the API key access token to your clipboard when prompted.

3. In CodePen, update the accessToken variable to use your access token.

         const accessToken = "YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN";
   
         Cesium.ArcGisMapService.defaultAccessToken = accessToken;
   
         const cesiumAccessToken = "YOUR_CESIUM_ACCESS_TOKEN";
   
         Cesium.Ion.defaultAccessToken = cesiumAccessToken;
   
         const arcGisImagery = Cesium.ArcGisMapServerImageryProvider.fromBasemapType(Cesium.ArcGisBaseMapType.SATELLITE);
   
         const viewer = new Cesium.Viewer("cesiumContainer", {
   
           baseLayer: Cesium.ImageryLayer.fromProviderAsync(arcGisImagery),
   
         });
   

4. Run the code to ensure the base layer is displayed in the scene.

To learn about the other types of authentication available, go to Types of authentication.

Reference ArcGIS REST JS

1. Reference the routing and request packages from ArcGIS REST JS.

Add event listeners

The starter code provided for this tutorial includes a basic user interface with a text input and category buttons. Add event listeners to this interface to make requests to the places service on when they are clicked.

1. Create a showPlaces function to make requests to the places service.

Display results

The response from the places service will contain a list of place results. Each result will include a place's x/y coordinates, name, category, and unique ID. Add these each result to your CesiumJS application as an Entity.

1. Access the service results. For each result, add a new Entity containing a name, an id, and a position obtained from the result information.

4. Run the app. When you click a category button or search for a phrase, the map should display a set of points representing place results.

Display the place address and phone number

You can access more information about a place by using the unique placeId associated with it. Configure a popup that will perform a getPlaceDetails request when the user clicks on an entity. Display the address and phone number of the clicked location.

1. Create a new ScreenSpaceEventHandler for the viewer to listen for clicks in the scene. Add a conditional statement to only take action if the user clicked on an entity.

Run the app

In CodePen, run your code to display the application. The app should display a map with a search control. Upon clicking a button or entering a phrase, place results should appear on the map. Clicking a result will submit another service request to get the place address and phone number.
