Can ArcGIS Viewer for Flex be used offline utilizing local data?

stevenmenefee2

This might seem like a silly question....but is it possible to setup ArcGIS Viewer for Flex (or any flex web application) to look at local data (i.e. shapefile or file geodatabase) instead of web services? Thanks!

Raffi,

I am going to back out of this discussion, as you are asking questions outside of my knowledge area. I can only tell you that offline features are not impleneted or only partially implemented in the Flex API. My be you will have better luck on your inquiry in this thread http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/76351-Mobile-Flex-Zoom-into-Tile-Package

OK,Thanks for the reply Robert 🙂

And finally, can the ArcGIS API for flex query offline layers from the tiles or something else that will make it read data from table and feature classes?

Raffi,

No, Currently the API does not contain this type of capability. It has been discussed in the past.

Hi Robert, thanks for the reply.

Just to be sure, this also applies even if we are using Flex and with Adobe Air and are packaging for iOS. This gives us access to plist and some other tricks...maybe there is a work around? But I assume the offline maps work fine with that setup on iOS and Android?

As we are a start up, this project can make or break us. Our potential client will install these large touch screens in various parts of his residential project. This device is going to be tough to connect to the internet, but we can request a specific device type to be installed. Users are supposed to be able to generate driving directions, and search functionality backed by a geocoding layer. This is in addition to offline maps ofcourse. So the question is...is there a specific device type (It cant be a tablet, something bigger and more awkward) and an operating system that the client can install. And on top of that we can build an app using a specific API that can provide offline maps, routing and geocoding? Maybe the windows 8 API?

Thanks again;
Raffi

Hello all;

I thought this would be a good place to ask this question. I see that the ArcGIS sdk for iOS has great offline features such as maps, geocoding and routing. Are these also available with the ArcGIS API for Flex?

Thanks;
Raffi

Steven-

I've only known the viewer to load services during start up. However there are widgets out there that allow you to add shapefiles and tabular data to a viewer once it is started. Robert Scheitlin has created a great Shapefiles Widget: http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=2e9096c5d5044d39a264df759611686f . Also, Anthony Giles has an Import Data File Widget that allows you to add Excel or CSV data. Again, both these widgets work after the your viewer has loaded. Probably not exactly what you are looking for, but both these widgets lets you get at your local data.
