It is used to generalize thus reduce the number of points (vetices) displayed on the map. It should be in map unit(for 102100, is meters).</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 10 Jun 2011 13:10:42 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-javascript-maps-sdk-questions/maximum-allowable-offset/m-p/575481#M53742 HemingZhu 2011-06-10T13:10:42Z Re: Maximum Allowable Offset https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-javascript-maps-sdk-questions/maximum-allowable-offset/m-p/575482#M53743 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>The </SPAN><A href="http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisserver/10.0/apis/rest/index.html">ArcGIS Server REST docs</A><SPAN> have some info:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><BLOCKQUOTE class="jive-quote">Description: This option can be used to specify the maxAllowableOffset to be used for generalizing geometries returned by the query operation.<BR /><BR /><STRONG>The maxAllowableOffset is in the units of the outSR.
