Display device location in 100.0.0 - Noob Question

GeoffStevenson — Mon, 08 May 2017 05:28:39 GMT

Hi all, is there an updated tutorial like this one (Show device location (GPS)—ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Java | ArcGIS for Developers ) but for 100.0.0? I'm new to arcGIS and am trying to display a device location (and path) in my application. If you could point me to some resources that would help me to figure it out myself that would be awesome!

Ultimately I'm trying display in real-time and from a log file, data from an NMEA positioning device in my app. So anything else you think might be helpful would be great as well!

Regards,

Geoff

Hi Geoff,

There is no equivalent class in Runtime 100.0.0 so far. As far as I know, it is unlikely that this feature is going to be added later on, but I might be wrong. I suggest you create your own implementation for this external data source. There are plenty of NMEA parser libraries i.e. Java Marine API - NMEA 0183 library for Java. To display location you can use Graphic Overlays.

Hope this helps,

Adam
