I am interested in building a mobile application that would allow users to edit and add data to a map (hosted as a mapService on ArcGIS Server) in offline mode, using the mobile device GPS and forms for data. What tools, products and technologies are needed to develop such app? I know this would be quite difficult to answer with such few details, but all information would be welcome. Is using an android and iOS html5/javascript framework combined with ArcGIS Javascript API is enough or will we need to use tools like Android Studio with ArcObject SDK ? I think the Collector app would be close to what we need, but some features are missing like complex forms to populate the features datatable. Is it possible to extend the Collector app? ...

Hi, I am trying to create a tool to automatize the update of roads source used in a Network Dataset. In short, I want to truncate the roads feature class and append the new roads data into it. Finally, I want to rebuild the Network Dataset. When I try to edit the roads feature class, I encounter errors because arcpy can't edit a feature class used by a Network Dataset. Is there a strategy I could try to achieve what I am trying to do? Note: The Network Dataset is stored in Geodatabase Enterprise (SDE) ... View more

Hi, I encounter a non-explicit error when using arcpy.GenerateServiceAreas with those parameters: Maximum_Facilities Maximum_Number_of_Breaks This is how I can reproduce the error: import arcpy, os arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = True featureSet = {     "geometryType": "esriGeometryPoint",     "spatialReference": {         "wkid": 3857,     },     "fields": [         {             "name": "Name",             "alias": "Name",             "type": "esriFieldTypeString"         },     ],     "features" : [         {             "geometry" : {                 "x" : -7929427,                 "y" :  5910701             },             "attributes" : {                 "Name": "Foo"             }         }     ] } facilities = arcpy.AsShape(feature_set, True) Network_Dataset_Path = os.path.join(r"\\vnageop1", "geod", "Geobase", "Network Analyst", "Reseau routier - AQ.gdb", "NetworkAnalystAQ", "NetworkAnalystAQ_ND") arcpy.GenerateServiceAreas_na(facilities, "10", "Meters", Network_Dataset_Path, "in_memory/ServiceAreasOutput", Maximum_Facilities=10, Maximum_Number_of_Breaks=5)‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ The error is the following: Traceback (most recent call last):   File "G:\testNA.py", line 34, in <module>     arcpy.GenerateServiceAreas_na(facilities, "10", "Meters", NA_Path, "in_memory/ServiceAreasOutput", Maximum_Facilities=10)   File "c:\app\arcgis\desktop10.3\arcpy\arcpy\na.py", line 3878, in GenerateServiceAreas     raise e ExecuteError: A python error occurred.

I wonder if it's possible to parameter the IdentifyTask in order that the result features attributes would be using the fields names instead of the fields alias. This is because fields names are less likely to be changed than alias over the course of time. Also, I dont how the API would handle fields that have the same alias. That could happen... Thank you! ... View more
