Take a utility network offline

Starting with version 100.11, you can take certain utility network A utility network is a feature service that represents a utility system, such as water, gas, or electricity. A utility network provides the capabilities to visualize, edit, and analyze utility assets and data. Learn more information offline Offline is the state of having no network connection and applications cannot access ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise. Learn more . Associations An association is a relationship between two elements that is reflected in a utility network topology.

Simple edits can also be made to utility network features while offline and synchronized back to ArcGIS Enterprise ArcGIS Enterprise is a GIS mapping, analytics, data hosting, and content management product that can be hosted on-premise or in a cloud infrastructure. It includes software, applications, tools, APIs, and services for users and developers. Learn more .

The following code takes a web map offline that contains a utility network. The utility network tables are automatically synced with a map when a utility network is detected within.

var task = await OfflineMapTask.CreateAsync(map);
var offlineMapParameters = await task.CreateDefaultGenerateOfflineMapParametersAsync(areaOfInterest);

var job = task.GenerateOfflineMap(offlineMapParameters, downloadDirectoryPath);
var result = await job.GetResultAsync();

var utilityNetwork = result.OfflineMap.UtilityNetworks[0];

var parametersOverride = await task.CreateGenerateOfflineMapParameterOverridesAsync(offlineMapParameters);

var overrideKey = new OfflineMapParametersKey(map.UtilityNetworks[0]);
var geodatabaseParameters = parametersOverride.GenerateGeodatabaseParameters[overrideKey];
geodatabaseParameters.UtilityNetworkSyncMode = UtilityNetworkSyncMode.None;

The following code generates a sync-enabled mobile geodatabase from a feature service. By default, only feature data are included unless you specify a sync mode for the utility network.

var task = await GeodatabaseSyncTask.CreateAsync(featureServiceUri);
var parameters = await task.CreateDefaultGenerateGeodatabaseParametersAsync(areaOfInterest);

// Specify a sync mode for utility network
parameters.UtilityNetworkSyncMode = UtilityNetworkSyncMode.SyncSystemTables;

var job = task.GenerateGeodatabase(parameters, pathToGeodatabaseFile);
var geodatabase = await job.GetResultAsync();
