Run a filtered trace to locate operable features that will isolate an area from the flow of network resources.
Use case
Determine the set of operable features required to stop a network's resource, effectively isolating an area of the network. For example, you can choose to return only accessible and operable valves: ones that are not paved over or rusted shut.
How to use the sample
Select one or more features to use as filter barriers or create and set the configuration's filter barriers by selecting a category. Check or uncheck 'Include isolated features'. Press 'Trace' to run a subnetwork-based isolation trace. Press 'Reset' to clear filter barriers.
How it works
- Create a
MapView
. - Create and load a
ServiceGeodatabase
with a feature service URL and get tables by their layer IDs. - Create a
Map
that containsFeatureLayer
(s) created from the service geodatabases tables. - Create and load a
UtilityNetwork
with the feature service URL and theMap
. - Add a
GraphicsOverlay
with aGraphic
that represents the starting location, and another graphics overlay for the filter barriers. - Populate the list of filter barrier categories from
UtilityNetworkDefinition.categories
. - When the map view is clicked, identify which features are at that location and add a graphic that represents a filter barrier.
- Create a
UtilityElement
for the identified feature and add this utility element to a list of filter barriers.- If the element is a junction with more than one terminal, display a terminal picker. Then set the junction's Terminal property with the selected terminal.
- If an edge, use the result from
GeometryEngine.fractionAlong
to set the elementsfractionAlongEdge
property.
- If
Trace
is clicked with filter barriers:- Update the default configurations include isolated features property.
- Update the
UtilityTraceParameters
filter barriers property. - Run
UtilityNetwork.trace
.
- If 'Trace' is clicked without filter barriers:
- Create a new
UtilityCategoryComparison
with the selected category andEnums.UtilityCategoryComparisonOperatorExists
. - Assign this condition to
UtilityTraceFilter.barriers
from the default configuration from step 6. Update this configuration'sincludeIsolatedFeatures
property. - Run
UtilityNetwork.trace
.
- For every
FeatureLayer
in the map, select the features returned byfeaturesForElements
from the elements matching theirNetworkSource.name
with the layer'sFeatureTable.name
.

About the data
The Naperville gas network feature service, hosted on ArcGIS Online (authentication required: this is handled within the sample code), contains a utility network used to run the isolation trace shown in this sample.
Additional information
Using utility network on ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8 requires an ArcGIS Enterprise member account licensed with the Utility Network user type extension. Please refer to the utility network services documentation.
