No clustering support in iOS SDK

[VernonChin]

Hello all,

Just wondering why there is currently no feature / graphic clustering support in the SDK like there is in WPF and possibly other runtime SDKs.  Is this on the roadmap in any form?

Thanks,
Vernon

Unfortunately we don't yet support clustering, although it is something we are very keen to do.
I am unable to provide a time frame on when it might be available, but thank you for the feedback, we realize it is important for many users.

Hi,

It has been a while since this post, so asking the same question again, Is there any schedule for cluster support on IOS SDK?

thanks,

Farzana.

Hi,

May i know if ESRI will be implementing marker (maptip) clustering in the iOS SDK anytime soon? my projects would require the need for clustering.

I created this plugin a few months back. It provides a cluster layer for the iOS Runtime to allow clustering of point-based feature services: nixta/clusterlayer-plugin-ios · GitHub

Note, this is not an official Esri component.

Hi Nicholas,

Thanks for works.

Nonetheless, is there support for AGSGraphicsLayer too? as i can see that it support AGSFeatureLayer via clusterLayerForFeatureLayer. is clusterLayerForGraphicsLayer doable?

[Nicholas-Furness]

Hi,

I'll have to take a look at the code to see, but it should be possible.

To be clear, you want to populate a GraphicsLayer yourself, and then cluster the content?

Hi Nicholas,

Yes.. I had a graphics layer with custom image annotation.. But right now I would need it to be clustered.. Possible to assist?

I have the workings of a clusterLayerForGraphicsLayer function. I need to tidy it up a little more. Hopefully I can get to that tomorrow. Will let you know here.

Thanks,

Nick.

Update: I didn't get to it when I hoped I could. It's back on the list now that DevSummit is behind us. I've opened an issue at the GitHub Repo. You should track that from now on.

Hi Lip Hin Wee​​,

I've checked in an update that allows you to use an AGSGraphicsLayer as a data source.

Hope this helps!

Nick.
