Local server map image layer

View on GitHubSample viewer app

Start the Local Server and Local Map Service, create an ArcGIS Map Image Layer from the Local Map Service, and add it to a map.

Image of local server map image layer

Use case

For executing offline geoprocessing tasks in your ArcGIS Maps SDK for Java apps via an offline (local) server.

How to use the sample

The Local Server and local map service will automatically be started and, once running, a map image layer will be created and added to the map.

How it works

  1. Create and run a local server with LocalServer.INSTANCE.
  2. Start the server asynchronously with Server.startAsync().
  3. Wait for server to be in the LocalServerStatus.STARTED state.
    • Callbacks attached to Server.addStatusChangedListener() will invoke whenever the status of the local server has changed.
  4. Create and run a local service, example of running a LocalMapService.
    1. Instantiate LocalMapService(Url) to create a local map service with the given URL path to the map package (mpkx file).
    2. Start the service asynchronously with LocalFeatureService.startAsync(). The service is added to the Local Server automatically.
  5. Wait for the state of the map service to be LocalServerStatus.STARTED.
    • Callbacks attached to LocalFeatureService.addStatusChangedListener() will invoke whenever the status of the local service has changed.
  6. Create an ArcGIS map image layer from local map service.
    1. Create a ArcGISMapImageLayer(Url) from local map service url provided by LocalMapService.getUrl().
    2. Add the layer to the map's operational layers.
    3. Connect to the map image layer's LoadStatusChanged signal.
    4. When the layer's status is Loaded, set the map view's extent to the layer's full extent.

Additional information

Local Server can be downloaded for Windows and Linux platforms from your ArcGIS Developers dashboard. Local Server is not supported on macOS.

Specific versions of ArcGIS Maps SDK for Local Server are compatible with the version of ArcGIS Pro you use to create geoprocessing and map packages. For example, the ArcGIS Maps SDK for Java v100.11.0 is configured for ArcGIS Maps SDK for Local Server v100.10.0 which provides compatibility for packages created with ArcGIS Pro 2.7.x. For more information see the ArcGIS Developers guide.

To configure the ArcGIS Maps SDK for Java v100.11.0 to work with ArcGIS Maps SDK for Local Server 100.9.0:

  • Development machine:
    • Locate the Local Server installation directory and rename the folder from LocalServer100.9 to LocalServer100.10.
    • Update the environment variable from RUNTIME_LOCAL_SERVER_100_9 to RUNTIME_LOCAL_SERVER_100_10.
  • Deployment machine(s): Rename the deployment folder included with your application (or referenced by the LocalServerEnvironment.InstallPath property) from LocalServer100.9 to LocalServer100.10.
