Property Details

accumulateAttributes Property accumulateAttributes String[]

Use this property to specify whether the operation should accumulate values other than the value specified for impedanceAttribute. For example, if your impedanceAttribute is set to travel-time, the total travel time for the route will be calculated by the operation. However, if you also want to calculate the total distance of the route in miles, you can specify Miles as the value for the accumulateAttributes property.

Known Value
kilometers
miles
meters
minutes
time-at-1kph
travel-time
truck-minutes
truck-travel-time
walk-time

apiKey Property apiKey String Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.21 ServiceAreaParameters since 4.20, apiKey added at 4.21.

An authorization string used to access a resource or service. API keys are generated and managed in the portal. An API key is tied explicitly to an ArcGIS account; it is also used to monitor service usage. Setting a fine-grained API key on a specific class overrides the global API key.

attributeParameterValues Property attributeParameterValues AttributeParameterValue[]

Use this property to specify additional values required by an attribute or restriction, such as to specify whether the restriction prohibits, avoids, or prefers travel on restricted roads. If the restriction is meant to avoid or prefer roads, you can further specify the degree to which they are avoided or preferred using this property. For example, you can choose to never use toll roads, avoid them as much as possible, or prefer them.

attributeParameterValues

declaredClass Inherited Property declaredClass Stringreadonly Inherited from Accessor

The name of the class. The declared class name is formatted as esri.folder.className.

defaultBreaks Property defaultBreaks Number[]

Use this parameter to specify the size and number of service areas to generate for each facility. The service generates travel time- or travel distance-based service areas depending on the units for this parameter. If units are time based, the service areas are generated based on travel time along underlying streets. If units are distance based, the service areas are generated based on travel distances.

The unit for this parameter is based on the unit of the impedance attribute specified using impedanceAttributeName parameter or the impedanceAttributeName of the travel mode if travel mode is specified. If the impedanceAttributeName parameter is travel-time, the values specified as the defaultBreaks parameter are interpreted to be in minutes, and the service generates time-based service areas. Otherwise, the values are interpreted to be in miles or kilometers based on whether the impedanceAttributeName is set to miles or kilometers, respectively, and the service generates distance-based service areas.

defaultBreaks

excludeSourcesFromPolygons Property excludeSourcesFromPolygons String[]

An array of network source names to not use when generating polygons.

This property specifies if certain network sources should be excluded from the service area polygon generation. A service area on a multi-modal network where only one mode is being used to compute the service area would get a more appropriate shape if other modes are excluded from the polygons.

facilities Property facilities DataLayer |FeatureSet |NetworkFeatureSet |NetworkUrl

The input locations around which service areas are generated.

ignoreInvalidLocations Property ignoreInvalidLocations Boolean Since: ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.25 ServiceAreaParameters since 4.20, ignoreInvalidLocations added at 4.25.

Specify whether invalid input locations should be ignored when finding the best solution. An input point is deemed invalid by the operation if it is not within the maximum snap tolerance of any traversable street. When true invalid points are ignored. When false any invalid point in your request will cause the operation to return a failure.

ignoreInvalidLocations

impedanceAttribute Property impedanceAttribute String

Specifies the impedance.

Impedance is a value that quantifies travel along the transportation network. Travel distance is an example of impedance; it quantifies the length of walkways and road segments. Similarly, drive time—the typical time it takes to drive a car along a road segment—is an example of impedance. This property will be ignored if travelMode is set.

If true, service area polygons from multiple facilities with the same break value will be merged together, resulting in a single polygon feature per break value.

if false, service area polygons from multiple facilities with the same break values will remain separate polygon features.
