Class ArcGISMap

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    JsonSerializable, Loadable
    public final class ArcGISMap
extends Object
implements Loadable, JsonSerializable
    An ArcGISMap contains layers of mapping data as well as other information which define the maps capabilities (e.g. basemaps, popups, renderers, labels etc...). A map can be visualized in a MapView and can also be used on its own to access the data.

    In an MVC architecture, an ArcGISMap represents the model and a MapView represents the view. An ArcGISMap specifies how the geographic data is organized, and a MapView renders the data on the screen and allows users to interact with it.

    An ArcGISMap can contain a Basemap and or one or more operational layers:

    • A Basemap is a map layer that helps orient the user of the map. Typically it sits behind operational layers and shows roads and parcel boundaries to give context to operational layers. Basemaps can also contain layers which are drawn over the top operational layers such as label layers.
    • An operational layer provides content that is of unique interest to the app and the task at hand, such as data about earthquakes, traffic, or weather for example. Its content might change frequently.

    An ArcGISMap can be manually created by adding layers or it can be instantiated from a map item, for example from a web map. When you create an ArcGISMap, the spatial reference of the first layer you add is used as the spatial reference of the entire map, which is typically the first layer in the Basemap. The code below shows how to create an ArcGISMap with a topographic basemap and add operational feature layer from a ServiceFeatureTable 

     // add topographic basemap
 ArcGISMap map = new ArcGISMap(Basemap.Type.TOPOGRAPHIC, 34.056295, -117.195800, 10);
 // create the service feature table
 ServiceFeatureTable serviceFeatureTable = new ServiceFeatureTable(URL);
 // create the feature layer using the service feature table
 FeatureLayer featureLayer = new FeatureLayer(serviceFeatureTable);
 // get the operational layers then add to operational layer to ArcGISMap
 LayerList operationalLayers = map.getOperationalLayers().add(featureLayer);

    • Method Detail

      • getLoadStatus

        public LoadStatus getLoadStatus()
        Description copied from interface: Loadable
        Returns the LoadStatus of the loadable resource.
        Specified by:
        getLoadStatus in interface Loadable
        Returns:
        the LoadStatus of the loadable resource

      • getLoadError

        public ArcGISRuntimeException getLoadError()
        Description copied from interface: Loadable
        Returns the most recent error that was encountered when the loadable resource transitioned to the LoadStatus.FAILED_TO_LOAD state, either due to calling loadAsync or retryLoadAsync.

        If the resource subsequently transitions to LoadStatus.LOADED, for example if a call to retryLoadAsync completes successfully, the error is cleared out.

        Specified by:
        getLoadError in interface Loadable
        Returns:
        the most recent error that was encountered when the loadable resource transitioned to the LoadStatus.FAILED_TO_LOAD state.

      • loadAsync

        public void loadAsync()
        Description copied from interface: Loadable
        Loads the metadata of the loadable resource asynchronously.

        The load status changes from LoadStatus.NOT_LOADED to LoadStatus.LOADING. A listener can be added via Loadable.addDoneLoadingListener(java.lang.Runnable) that is invoked upon completion of the asynchronous load operation.

        If the load operation completes successfully, the load status will be LoadStatus.LOADED, which means the resource has loaded its metadata.

        If the load operation failed, the load status will be LoadStatus.FAILED_TO_LOAD and the error can be retrieved by calling Loadable.getLoadError().

        This method can be called concurrently and repeatedly, but only one attempt is ever made to perform the load operation. If a load operation is already in progress (LoadStatus.LOADING state) when loadAsync is called, it simply piggy-backs on the outstanding operation and the done loading listener added to the loadable resource is enqueued to be invoked when that operation completes. If the operation has already completed (LoadStatus.LOADED or LoadStatus.FAILED_TO_LOAD state) when loadAsync is called, the done loading listener is immediately invoked when added to the loadable resource.

        If a loadable resource has failed to load, calling loadAsync on it subsequently will not change its state. The done loading listener will be invoked immediately when added to the loadable resource. In order to retry loading the resource, Loadable.retryLoadAsync() needs to be used.

        A load operation that is in progress (LoadStatus.LOADING state) can be cancelled by calling Loadable.cancelLoad().

        Specified by:
        loadAsync in interface Loadable

      • retryLoadAsync

        public void retryLoadAsync()
        Description copied from interface: Loadable
        Tries to reload the metadata of the loadable resource asynchronously, but only if the resource failed to load previously (LoadStatus.FAILED_TO_LOAD state) or wasn't loaded to begin with ( LoadStatus.NOT_LOADED state).

        For more details on the load process see Loadable.loadAsync().

        Specified by:
        retryLoadAsync in interface Loadable

      • cancelLoad

        public void cancelLoad()
        Description copied from interface: Loadable
        Cancels a pending load operation.

        A load operation that is in progress (LoadStatus.LOADING state) can be cancelled by calling this method and the resource will transition from LoadStatus.LOADING to LoadStatus.FAILED_TO_LOAD state. If the load operation was successfully cancelled a CancellationException will be returned from Loadable.getLoadError().

        Cancellation should be used carefully because all enqueued done loading listeners for that resource instance will get invoked with an error stating that the operation was cancelled. Thus, one component in the application can cancel the load operation initiated by other components.

        This method does nothing if the resource is not in LoadStatus.LOADING state.

        Specified by:
        cancelLoad in interface Loadable

      • addDoneLoadingListener

        public void addDoneLoadingListener​(Runnable listener)
        Description copied from interface: Loadable
        Adds a listener to the loadable resource that is invoked when loading has completed.

        The listener may be added at any point, whether the loadable resource has already completed loading or not.

        • For resources that are not loaded when the listener is added (LoadStatus is NOT_LOADED or LOADING): When the resource completes loading, the listener will be invoked on the UI thread if it is added from the UI thread, otherwise it is not guaranteed on which thread the listener is invoked.
        • For resources that are already loaded when the listener is added (LoadStatus is LOADED or FAILED_TO_LOAD): The listener will be called immediately, on the current thread.

        Alternatively, to be notified when there is any change in the load status, use the Loadable.addLoadStatusChangedListener(LoadStatusChangedListener) method instead.

        Specified by:
        addDoneLoadingListener in interface Loadable
        Parameters:
        listener - a Runnable that is invoked upon completion of the load operation

      • removeDoneLoadingListener

        public boolean removeDoneLoadingListener​(Runnable listener)
        Description copied from interface: Loadable
        Removes a done loading listener from the loadable resource.
        Specified by:
        removeDoneLoadingListener in interface Loadable
        Parameters:
        listener - the listener to be removed
        Returns:
        true if the listener was removed, otherwise false

      • addLoadStatusChangedListener

        public void addLoadStatusChangedListener​(LoadStatusChangedListener listener)
        Description copied from interface: Loadable
        Adds a LoadStatusChangedListener to the loadable resource that is invoked whenever the load status changes.

        Adding this listener on the UI thread will cause it to be invoked on the UI thread, otherwise it is not guaranteed on which thread the listener is invoked.

        The listener will not be called if added to a loadable resource that has already completed loading. To be notified when a loadable resource has completed loading, including if the resource is already loaded when the listener is added, use the Loadable.addDoneLoadingListener(Runnable) method.

        Specified by:
        addLoadStatusChangedListener in interface Loadable
        Parameters:
        listener - the LoadStatusChangedListener to be added

      • removeLoadStatusChangedListener

        public boolean removeLoadStatusChangedListener​(LoadStatusChangedListener listener)
        Description copied from interface: Loadable
        Removes a LoadStatusChangedListener from the loadable resource.
        Specified by:
        removeLoadStatusChangedListener in interface Loadable
        Parameters:
        listener - the LoadStatusChangedListener to be removed
        Returns:
        true if the listener was removed, otherwise false

      • getMinScale

        public double getMinScale()
        Gets the minimum scale of the ArcGISMap.
        Returns:
        the minimum scale of the ArcGISMap; will be zero if the map is not loaded or there is no minimum scale and the user can zoom out indefinitely
        Since:
        100.0.0

      • setMinScale

        public void setMinScale​(double minScale)
        Sets the minimum scale of the ArcGISMap.
        Parameters:
        minScale - the minimum scale to set; a value of zero indicates that there is no minimum scale and the user can zoom out indefinitely
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if minScale is negative
        Since:
        100.0.0

      • getMaxScale

        public double getMaxScale()
        Gets the maximum scale of the ArcGISMap.
        Returns:
        the maximum scale of the ArcGISMap; will be zero if the map is not loaded or there is no maximum scale and the user can zoom in indefinitely
        Since:
        100.0.0

      • setMaxScale

        public void setMaxScale​(double maxScale)
        Sets the maximum scale of the ArcGISMap.
        Parameters:
        maxScale - the maximum scale to set; a value of zero indicates that there is no maximum scale and the user can zoom in indefinitely
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if maxScale is negative
        Since:
        100.0.0

      • getReferenceScale

        public double getReferenceScale()
        Gets the reference scale of the ArcGISMap.

        The reference scale of the map is the scale at which a client should view the map for the feature symbols and text to appear at their authored size. If the client changes the viewing scale, then feature symbols and text will grow or shrink to keep a consistent size on the map (not the screen). This only happens if the reference scale is greater than zero and for feature layers that have DrawingInfo.isScaleSymbols() set to true, otherwise the symbols and text stay at their authored size. The reference scale will be zero if the map is not loaded or if there is no reference scale and the symbols and text should appear at default size regardless of the viewing scale.

        Returns:
        the reference scale of the ArcGISMap; will be zero if the map is not loaded or there is no reference scale
        Since:
        100.5.0

      • setReferenceScale

        public void setReferenceScale​(double referenceScale)
        Sets the reference scale of the ArcGISMap.

        The reference scale of the map is the scale at which a client should view the map for the feature symbols and text to appear at their authored size. If the client changes the viewing scale, then feature symbols and text will grow or shrink to keep a consistent size on the map (not the screen). This only happens if the reference scale is greater than zero and for feature layers that have DrawingInfo.isScaleSymbols() set to true, otherwise the symbols and text stay at their authored size. The reference scale will be zero if the map is not loaded or if there is no reference scale and the symbols and text should appear at default size regardless of the viewing scale.

        This property is intended to be used for new ArcGISMap objects, that will have layers attached that expect a reference scale. Subsequent updates to the reference scale will cause a redraw of all layers that use the reference scale, and possible knock-on redraw of other layers that depend on them (for example dynamic labels that need to re-position to avoid overlaps).

        Parameters:
        referenceScale - the reference scale to set; a value of zero indicates that there is no reference scale
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if referenceScale is negative
        Since:
        100.5.0

        public Map<String,​Object> getUnknownJson()
        Description copied from interface: JsonSerializable
        If this object was created from JSON, this method gets unknown data from the source JSON. Unknown JSON is a Map of values that were in the source JSON but are not known by the Runtime and therefore not exposed in the API.
        Specified by:
        getUnknownJson in interface JsonSerializable
        Returns:
        an unmodifiable Map containing unknown JSON data. The keys are Strings containing names. The types of the values depend on the types of tokens within the JSON as follows:
        • a Map<String, Object> represents an object in the JSON
        • a List<Object> represents an array in the JSON
        • a String represents a string in the JSON

        Adds a BasemapChangedListener to this ArcGISMap that gets invoked when the Basemap has changed.

        Adding this listener on the UI thread will cause it to be invoked on the UI thread, otherwise it is not guaranteed on which thread the listener is invoked.

        Parameters:
        listener - a BasemapChangedListener that gets invoked when the Basemap has changed
        Throws:

      • saveAsync

        public ListenableFuture<PortalItem> saveAsync​(boolean forceSaveToSupportedVersion)
        Executes an asynchronous operation to save any changes that have been made to the map. The map must be associated with a PortalItem object, and must be loaded. The result is a reference to the map's PortalItem object.

        Saving an existing webmap will keep the portal item extent in sync with the initial viewpoint of the map set using the setInitialViewpoint(Viewpoint) method.

        Updates the map content data on the portal and also updates the portal item properties stored on the portal to match those stored within the map's PortalItem object.

        When saving a webmap it is always saved as the currently supported webmap version of the API (see system requirements). This may cause data loss as JsonSerializable.getUnknownJson(), unknown objects (e.g. UnknownLayers) and other properties unknown to the webmap specification (e.g. new layer types or local data paths) are not saved. JsonSerializable.getUnsupportedJson() is maintained and saved in the map as it is known to the webmap specification but not explicitly exposed by this API. This operation includes the forceSaveToSupportedVersion flag which can be used to provide a warning to users that some map data may be lost when the map is saved.

        Parameters:
        forceSaveToSupportedVersion - flag to indicate whether the map should be saved to the supported webmap version that the API supports (see system requirements). This may cause data loss as unknown data is not saved. If true, unknown data will be removed and the map will be saved. If false, the asynchronous operation will fail if the map contains unknown data that will not be saved. This flag can be used to provide a warning to users that some map data may be lost when the map is saved.
        Returns:
        a ListenableFuture for tracking when the operation is done and getting the result; also allows cancellation. Calling get() on the returned future may throw an ExecutionException with its cause set to an exception as follows:
        Throws:
        IllegalStateException - if the map is not loaded or is not associated with a PortalItem object
        ArcGISRuntimeException - if the current LicenseLevel is too low for this operation (LicenseLevel.BASIC or higher is required to save maps to a portal)
        Since:
        100.0.0

                                                Iterable<String> tags,
                                                String description,
                                                byte[] thumbnailData,
                                                boolean forceSaveToSupportedVersion)
        Executes an asynchronous operation to save this map by creating a new map on the given portal in the given folder. Once completed, the map will be associated with a new PortalItem object. The new item will belong to the user currently signed in to the portal and its access level will be PortalItem.Access.PRIVATE.

        Note that if the map was already associated with a PortalItem object (either because the map was created using a PortalItem or was previously saved), that object will be replaced with a new PortalItem, effectively 'duplicating' the map on the portal.

        When saving a webmap it is always saved as the currently supported webmap version of the API (see system requirements). This may cause data loss as JsonSerializable.getUnknownJson(), unknown objects (e.g. UnknownLayers) and other properties unknown to the webmap specification (e.g. new layer types or local data paths) are not saved. JsonSerializable.getUnsupportedJson() is maintained and saved in the map as it is known to the webmap specification but not explicitly exposed by this API. This operation includes the forceSaveToSupportedVersion flag which can be used to provide a warning to users that some map data may be lost when the map is saved.

        The result is a reference to the map's PortalItem object.

        Saving a map does not automatically include the extent of the current MapView. If you want to save the current extent with the map, then get the GeoView.getCurrentViewpoint(Viewpoint.Type) and pass it to the setInitialViewpoint(Viewpoint) method to ensure the current extent is saved with the map. For example: 

         Viewpoint vp = mapView.getCurrentViewpoint(Viewpoint.Type.BOUNDING_GEOMETRY);
 map.setInitialViewpoint(vp);
        Parameters:
        portal - the portal on which to save the map; must not be null and must not be loaded anonymously; to ensure it's not loaded anonymously, either set a credential on it using Portal.setCredential(Credential) before the portal is loaded, or use the Portal(String, boolean) constructor with loginRequired set to true
        portalFolder - a PortalFolder belonging to the current user in which to save the map, or null to save it in the user's root folder
        title - a title for the map; must not be null or empty
        tags - a list of tags to associate with the map, or null if none
        description - a description for the map, or null if none
        thumbnailData - thumbnail data for the map, or null if none
        forceSaveToSupportedVersion - flag to indicate whether the map should be saved to the supported webmap version that the API supports (see system requirements). This may cause data loss as unknown data is not saved. If true, unknown data will be removed and the map will be saved. If false, the asynchronous operation will fail if the map contains unknown data that will not be saved. This flag can be used to provide a warning to users that some map data may be lost when the map is saved.
        Returns:
        a ListenableFuture for tracking when the operation is done and getting the result; also allows cancellation. Calling get() on the returned future may throw an ExecutionException with its cause set to an exception as follows:
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if portal or title is null, or title is an empty string
        IllegalStateException - if the map is not loaded
        ArcGISRuntimeException - if the current LicenseLevel is too low for this operation (LicenseLevel.BASIC or higher is required to save maps to a portal)

      • getTables

        public List<FeatureTable> getTables()
        Gets the tables in this ArcGISMap. The list is modifiable, that is, tables can be added and removed. Tables are not loaded by default. Tables are loaded internally when asynchronous operations like query are performed. Alternatively, they can be loaded by calling FeatureTable.loadAsync().
        Returns:
        a modifiable list of tables

        100.1.0

      • getLoadSettings

        public LoadSettings getLoadSettings()
        Gets a load settings properties object that can be used to make changes to how feature layers loaded by this map are rendered.
        Returns:
        the load settings
        Since:
        100.2.0

      • setLoadSettings

        public void setLoadSettings​(LoadSettings loadSettings)
        Sets the load settings for this map. The load settings change how feature layers loaded by this map are rendered.
        Parameters:
        loadSettings - the load settings
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if loadSettings is null

      • getOfflineSettings

        public OfflineSettings getOfflineSettings()
        Gets the offline use settings, configured by the author of an online web map (if appropriate).

        These settings will only be populated when this map represents an online web map and the author has chosen to set them. The properties can be used to inform how a map should be taken offline. If no offline settings were provided, or if this map does not represent an online web map, this property will be null.

        Returns:
        the offline settings or null if the property is not set or the map is not a web map
