ESRI Map

Overview

Esri is the global market leader in geographic information system (GIS) software, location intelligence, and mapping. With this bi-directional integration, you can mark specific locations, measure distance and area, and provide directions using 2D or 3D maps and save this data to your application. You can also visualize your existing data on an Esri map and select those points for further analysis.


Note: The Esri ArcGIS Map Connected System plug-in is deployed separately. If you want to use this Component Plug-in, the corresponding Connected System Plug-In must also be deployed.

Pre-Requisites: An Esri subscription or trial, Esri ArcGIS Map Connected System.

Key Features & Functionality

  • esriMapMarkerField:
    • Mark points, polygons, and lines based on the co-ordinates given via input fields or coordinates from Appian
    • Mark the points, polygon and lines directly on the map and the coordinates of this graphics can be stored in Appian 
  • esriMapDirectionField:
    • Mark the points by clicking the map. The directions between these points are resolved and the details, including step-by-step directions, can be stored in Appian.

  • Thanks for the new features. I want to report that after upgrading from v1.3.0 to v1.5.0, several instances of the esriMapMarker field I had been working on became entirely unresponsive and would not display data. After getting them to work again through process of elimination, I think the reason is that the instances had no value specified for the featureLayers parameter. Passing in an empty list {} appears to resolve the issue.

  • v1.5.0 Release Notes
    • Feature Table Search and Selection: A new feature table functionality has been added to enable users to search and select items directly on the map. The table performs queries based on the user’s search query input, and if no query is specified, it fetches all items.
    • Search Field Specification in FeatureLayer: A new property has been introduced within the FeatureLayer input that allows users to specify the fields for search queries. This enhances the control over the search process, ensuring more relevant results based on the specified fields.
    • Item Highlighting on Map: On loading the feature table, selected items are automatically highlighted on the map for easier identification. Subsequent selections in the table will update the highlight on the map.
  • v1.4.0 Release Notes
    New Features
    • Feature Object Highlighting: A new parameter has been added to highlight feature objects within the feature layer, enhancing visibility.
    • Circle Geometry Type: Introduced a new geometry type, Circle, allowing for more diverse mapping capabilities.
    • Geometry Editing: Users can now edit the name and description of geometries for improved organization and context.
    • Element Tracking: Added functionality to track feature layer elements under geometries, enhancing data management.
    • Layer List : Introduced a layer list feature that enables users to rearrange and control the visibility of feature layers easily.
    • Feature Layer Info Saving: Added the capability to save feature layer information, ensuring user configurations are preserved.
    Bug Fixes
