Better vector maps

  • Rotation
  • Symbol scaling
  • Dot density renderer
  • Scale dependent renderer

Rotation

Geographic Arithmetic 

layer.renderer.setRotationInfo({
	field: 'heading',
	type: 'geographic'
});

Symbol scaling

layer.renderer.setProportionalSymbolInfo({
	field: 'GroundArea',
	valueUnit: 'meters',
	valueRepresentation: 'area'
});

layer.renderer.setProportionalSymbolInfo({
	field: 'GroundArea',
	minDataValue: 1,
	minSize: 4,
	maxDataValue: 100,
	maxSize: 20
});

Dot density renderer

var renderer = new DotDensityRenderer({
  fields: [{
    name: "M163_07",
    color: new Color("#CC8800")
  }],
  dotValue: 1600,
  dotSize: 1
});
layer.setRenderer(renderer);

Scale dependent renderer

var params = {rendererInfos: [{
  "renderer": renderer1,
  "minScale": 50000000,
  "maxScale": 10000000
}, {
  "renderer": renderer2,
  "minScale": 10000000,
  "maxScale": 5000000
}]};

var scaleDependentRenderer = new ScaleDependentRenderer(params);
layer.setRenderer(scaleDependentRenderer);

jsapi-resources

New repository on GitHub with TypeScript definitions for the JS API as well as the jshint options file used by the JS API team

Web App Builder

What is it?

Over to Scott

New Layers

Popup improvements

Use related fields in a popup template 

"fieldName": "Point_Count_COMMON" // not related
"fieldName": "relationships/0/Point_Count_COMMON" // related

Light and Dark popup themes

Circles _

var circle = new Circle({
  center: point,
	radius: 100
});

var graphic = new Graphic(circle, symbol);
map.graphics.add(graphic);

New Map Widgets

  • Home button
  • Locate button
  • Swipe tool

Go Offline

  • Finally!
  • Export tiles from tiled service
  • Sync framework for feature services

  • Find an Eagle staff member
  • Ask a question
  • Guess the number of #NZEUC tweets
  • Follow @eaglegis for updates
  • Entries close an hour before closing session

Thanks!
