The ArcGIS API for JavaScript version 3.17 is available today. This release drives many of the new features released in the ArcGIS Online (June 2016) release<\/a>, and other minor enhancements and bug fixes. For a complete list of changes, see the What’s new in Version 3.17<\/a> guide topic.<\/p>\n

Smart Mapping: Date – driven visualization<\/h1>\n

Developers have a new way to visualize temporal aspects in their data. For example, use color to view data sequentially from new to old or before and after a key date, or show a range of dates before and after a key date. Color can also be used to show the age of features using a start date and an end date. You can also size features based on a date with proportional symbols to visualize the dates sequentially on the map. Opacity can also be used to indicate intensity; for example, the newest features could be opaque while the oldest features could be nearly transparent. Date-driven visualization can be used in conjunction with other visual variables (using non-temporal attributes) to bring out other patterns in the data.<\/p>\n

Developers (and users) will be able to use Online\/Portal’s smart mapping capabilities<\/a> to visualize data temporally and save it in a web map, which can then be loaded<\/a> into an app. You can also take advantage of date-driven visualizations directly in code using the JS API.<\/p>\n

Feature table enhancements<\/h1>\n

Substantial work went into the feature table in this release. The most significant update is that the FeatureTable<\/a> now supports attachments. If the developer enables attachments<\/a>, the end user can view a list of attachments associated with a feature, or even add an attachment that is saved back to the feature service. Several properties were added to the feature table to provide users with more information about the data – for example to show or hide statistics and feature counts. Developers also have more options for customizing the look and feel of the table. Take this new feature for a test drive with the FeatureTable – Formatting<\/a> sample.<\/p>\n

Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) – WFS, WMS<\/h1>\n

Esri continues to improve its commitment to open standards and interoperability<\/a> with enhanced support for OGC services.<\/p>\n

In the ArcGIS Online (June 2016) release<\/a> you are now able to configure certain aspects of WFS<\/a> layers and save them in web maps; for example, make simple style changes, configure pop-ups, and change transparency. JS API apps can then load the web map to bring the styled WFS layer(s) into apps with a few lines of code. Developers can also customize the WFS layer\u2019s style and create pop-ups directly in their code. The 3.17 release adds support for WFS layers in the legend.<\/p>\n

WMS<\/a> pop-ups can now be enabled in the web map or directly through code<\/a>. We also added the ability for seamless mapping of WMS layers across the international dateline so you can continuously pan around the world. For more information see the What\u2019s New with OGC Support in ArcGIS Online (June 2016)<\/a> blog article.<\/p>\n
