Interface GeoElement

All Known Implementing Classes:
AggregateGeoElement, ArcGISFeature, DynamicEntity, DynamicEntityObservation, EncFeature, Feature, Graphic, KmlPlacemark, RasterCell, WmsFeature
public interface GeoElement
An abstract representation of geographic entities in a map, scene, map view or scene view.

Each geographic entity can possess geometry, to describe the location and shape of the entity, and a set of attributes to provide information about the real-world entity it represents. For example, a feature in a feature layer, a graphic in a graphics overlay, and a raster cell in a raster layer are represented by the Feature, Graphic, and RasterCell classes. Each class inherits from GeoElement.

Operations that identify all the layers in a map or scene, such as GeoView.identifyLayersAsync(Point2D, double, boolean), can return a collection of IdentifyLayerResult objects. You can obtain the various types of GeoElement objects using IdentifyLayerResult.getElements().

    • getAttributes

      Map<String,Object> getAttributes()
      Gets the attributes of the GeoElement as a collection of name/value pairs.

      Attribute values are returned as Object instances, but the underlying value type is based on the Field.Type.

      Returns:
      the attributes of the GeoElement as a collection of name/value pairs
