- Has a list of operational layers

Resources for Learning Runtime 100.0

• ArcGIS for Developers: https://developers.arcgis.com/java

- Guide (documentation)

- Sample code

- API reference (Javadoc)

- GeoNet forum

GeoDev Workshop Tutorials

And There’s So Much MoreHere’s some of what we didn’t cover today

• Wraparound maps (i.e. Pacific Ocean)

• Geocoding

• Editing features

- Online

- Offline

- Sync offline edits

• Analysis

- Online

- Offline

• ArcGIS portal content/web maps

• Local Server

- Map packages (.mpk)

- Geoprocessing packages (.gpk)

• Local raster layers

• Military symbology, a.k.a. dictionary renderer

• Grids (graticule, MGRS, USNG, UTM)

• App deployment

• App licensing

Q: Do I have to pay Esri to use ArcGIS Runtime?

• Development and testing is free of charge

• Some deployments are free of charge

• ArcGIS Named Users get additional capabilities at no extra cost

• Some capabilities require a paid license to deploy

• See https://developers.arcgis.com/java/latest/guide/license-your-app.htm for all the details

Q: Should I use JavaFX or Swing?

• JavaFX!

- Newer

- Easier

- More development options

- Works directly with ArcGIS Runtime 100.0

• ArcGIS Runtime 100.0 requires JavaFX to use the MapView or SceneView

• If you need to use ArcGIS Runtime 10.2.4:

- You can make it work with JavaFX

- But Swing is easier in that case

Q: I want to use ArcGIS Runtime with Java 5.

• Uh, no

- (By the way, that wasn’t a question)

• ArcGIS Runtime 100.0 for Java requires Java 8 or newer

• ArcGIS Runtime 10.2.4 for Java requires Java 7 or newer

Q: Can I use Runtime to extend ArcGIS Pro?

• No

• ArcGIS Pro has its own .NET SDK: https://github.com/esri/arcgis-pro-sdk/wiki

• It also has ArcPy (Python)

Q: Can I use Runtime to extend ArcMap and ArcCatalog?

• No

• You could use ArcPy (Python)

• You could even use the ArcObjects SDK for Java, .NET, or C++

• But you should really move to ArcGIS Pro

Q: How can I get help with ArcGIS Runtime?

• Documentation and tutorials at https://developers.arcgis.com

• Samples at https://github.com/Esri/arcgis-runtime-samples-java

• GeoDev tutorials at http://bit.ly/2lCweoe
