Michael - Here are my thoughts after consulting with some of our experts and some of their maps and information products. 1. Read the resource page for Make Closest Facility 2. Make sure you have a Network Dataset that is formatted for your analysis 3. Create "incidents" using either building centroids or block centroids using the Feature to Point geoprocess and use these for the Closest Facility Analysis. 4. Join the calculated routes back to the incidents. Calculated routes contain the target facilityID.  Join this to the incidents based on the incident id. 5. Visualize theoretical service areas using the Create Thiessen Polygons based on the facility / incident relationships and then symbolize your network by the service polygon they fall in.

Thanks for posting! - Paul Sorry Paul, I replied before seeing your post.  I will try this out as well.  Thanks for the tip! ... View more

Hello! I think you are looking at creating Service Areas using Network Analyst (Location-Allocation is a good option as well).  Here is a link to the Service Area doc: http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#//004700000048000000 and help with Network Analyst in general: http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#/Types_of_network_analysis_layers/004700000032000000/ A good starting point is the Network Analyst tutorial: http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#/About_the_ArcGIS_Network_Analyst_tutorial/00470000005r000000/ Service Area tutorial: http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#/Exercise_5_Calculating_service_areas_and_creating_an_OD_cost_matrix/004700000060000000/ Thanks to both of you, but the Service Area did the trick. ...

Thank you for the quick response.  I am currently dealing with 3 XAML files (App, MainPage, and a Custom control).  I am initiating a global variable on the App.xaml, setting the global variable on the Custom Control xaml, and would like to use that global variable on the MainPage.xaml to change the color of my drawn graphics. App.xaml.cs         public static class GlobalVariables         {             public static SolidColorBrush markerSymbolColor;             public static SolidColorBrush lineSymbolColor;             public static SolidColorBrush fillSymbolColor;         } ColorPickerControl.xaml.cs         private void Color_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)         {             Button btn = sender as Button;             this.SelectedColor = btn.Background as SolidColorBrush;             silverlightRedliningTools.App.GlobalVariables.markerSymbolColor = this.SelectedColor;             silverlightRedliningTools.App.GlobalVariables.lineSymbolColor = this.SelectedColor;             silverlightRedliningTools.App.GlobalVariables.fillSymbolColor = this.SelectedColor;             popUp.IsOpen = false;         } MainPage.xaml         <Grid.Resources>             <esri:SimpleLineSymbol x:Key="DrawLineSymbol" Color="Green" Width="4" />             <esri:SimpleFillSymbol x:Key="DrawFillSymbol" Fill="#3300FF00" BorderBrush="Green" BorderThickness="2" />             <!--<esri:SimpleMarkerSymbol x:Key="DefaultMarkerSymbol" Color="Red" Size="12" Style="Circle" />-->             <esri:SimpleMarkerSymbol x:Key="DefaultMarkerSymbol" Color="{Binding Source={StaticResource markerSymbolColor}, Path=Color}" Size="12" Style="Circle" />             <esri:SimpleLineSymbol x:Key="DefaultLineSymbol" Color="Red" Width="4" />             <esri:SimpleFillSymbol x:Key="DefaultFillSymbol" Fill="#33FF0000" BorderBrush="Red" BorderThickness="2" />         </Grid.Resources> I have implemented the code that you supplied before and am getting the following error: The resource "markerSymbolColor" could not be resolved. I will continue to research and will update if anything changes on my end. Thanks again for the help! ... View more

You can set Editor to ContinuousMode=true and bind your "Change Map Location" button to CancelActive command. You can try it in this sample: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#EditToolsAutoSave Thank you Jennifer!  That did the trick.  I was binding Select rather than CancelActive. ...

Have you seen any examples of people using this with their own graphics layer?  I have implemented your solution to my Silverlight application but am currently unable to print my custom graphics. Thanks in advance! ... View more

Mike, Just wanted to make sure you've checked out the Image Blender tool too 🙂  As I'm working on a print task also. http://dotnetsketch.com/imageblender.aspx Good luck, Todd I did see this.  Thanks.  One of the key features I was interested in in the other option was the ability to have our users create their own templates as a MXD that can then be controlled based on login. ...

Yes that is correct.  I know the metadata elements are there.  I was just trying to figure out how to display them on the details page.  The ideal details page would provide all of that information.  We would like to be able to display all the metadata that we populate. I spoke with ESRI support about this issue and they suggested that I move to Geoportal 10 and that would solve this issue.  I have downloaded but have not installed as of yet. If I continue to have the same issue after install, I will repost to this thread. Thanks! ... View more

Thanks for the quick response.  Unfortunately I am still am developing in VS2008 with the older Silverlight API.  Would you be able to post a code snippet of the code you used for the WindowPanel? Thank you for your time! ... View more
