Areas and Lengths Task Activity

Description:

Uses the ArcGIS Geometry Service to calculate the areas and lengths of polygons.

Inheritance Hierarchy:

Function:

This activity computes the areas and perimeters of a collection of polygons using the specified units.

In a Workflow:

After performing a query to obtain a set of polygon features this activity could be used to compute the areas of the features.

Properties:

Name	Description
In Arguments
Calculation Type	The type of calculation to perform (Planar, Geodesic, PreserveShape).
Credentials	The network credentials that are sent to the host and used to authenticate the request.
Custom Parameters	Additional parameters to include in the request.
Disable Client Caching	If true, adds a timestamp parameter (_ts) to the request to prevent it from being loaded from the application's cache.
Graphics	The graphics used to calculate areas and lengths.
Length Unit	The unit of length in which perimeters of polygons must be calculated. If the length unit is not specified, the units are derived from the spatial reference of the first geometry.
Area Unit	The area unit in which the areas of polygons must be calculated. If the area unit is not specified, the units are derived from the spatial reference of the first geometry.
Geometry Service Url	The URL of the ArcGIS Server Geometry service. For example: `http://sampleserver1.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Geometry/GeometryServer`.
Token	The token for accessing a secure ArcGIS task.
Proxy Url	The URL to proxy the request through.
Misc
Display Name	AreasAndLengthsTask You can change the name of an activity to one that describes what it does. A descriptive name can make a workflow easier to interpret and maintain.
Out Arguments
Results	The calculated areas and lengths.
