How to perform Linear Referencing search function from Web

ManishGohil — Fri, 26 Aug 2011 16:36:18 GMT

Hello All,
We have created a route layer using Linear Referencing Toolbox in ArcDesktop, then we show that ArcMap has Find tool which has Linear Referencing tab and which allows to search for Point or Line by giving one value or by giving from and to value.

I have attached the screen print of ArcMap which shows the Linear Referencing tab in Find tool, my objective is to implement the same functionality in our Online web application in Flex that we do using REST API.

So for example say user gives the input line Route name: I-10 E From: 10 To: 50 then it should return me the polyline.

Any Help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
Lala Rabari

We want to do the same thing you are describing (in ArcGIS Server). Did you ever get it to work? and if so how did you do it? Thanks!

Hy,
I did a such implementation by creating a custom SOE (ServerObjectExtension).

The implementation can be found here:
tomlux / PChPrintSOE / source / src / lu / etat / pch / gis / soe / PCHExportSOE.java — Bitbucket

It contains 3 operations on linear referencing:

getPKsByCoord: return the given measure by passing as parameter x,y,wkid and a search tolerance

getPointForPK: return a point by passing as parameter the route name and a location measure

getLineForPKs: return a line by passing as parameter the route name and a starting and end location measure

The routesystem layer and the field names are currently hard-coded in the code.
But I can make them configurable.

Let me know,
Schuller Tom

Hi Domenico,

I am interested in this site you suggested but am unable to open into it. Says "Disallowed Key Characters".

Thank you
