Programmatically save data points in a selected area (Online Version) ?

artHeyman — Thu, 11 Feb 2016 18:19:47 GMT

In the online version is it possible to add a widget / button to programmatically save data points in a selected area ,and then to write this data out to a csv file ? Ideally I’d like the code to then shell out and run a report using the saved data.

(the current manual method given us is far too prone to error to be tolerated by our prospective users)

If this can be done I’m willing to learn the API and the rest of what’s needed – if not there’s no reason to start learning.

Many thanks ,

This would be done in ArcGIS Desktop using the Intersect tool, but I assume you're talking about the JS API, in which case I think you'd use something like the intersect method of a GeometryService (although I don't really use the JS API, so take that with a grain of salt).

Many thanks for the reply. I just amended my post to include information I should have mentioned - I'm interested in being able to do this for the web version.
