FeatureSet

Resumen

FeatureSet objects are a lightweight representation of a feature class. They are a special data element that contains not only schema, but also the data. The FeatureSet object is also how feature data is sent and received from the server.

Debate

Nota:

If you're loading a feature class into a new FeatureSet and modifying the FeatureSet with a geoprocessing tool that modifies the input such as Calculate Field or a function such as UpdateCursor, the original feature class will also be modified.

Sintaxis

 FeatureSet  ({table})

Parámetro	Explicación	Tipo de datos
table	The features to load into the FeatureSet object. The input can be a catalog path to a feature class, a URL to a hosted feature layer, a JSON with the syntax {"url":"<url>", "serviceToken":"<ServiceToken>"} to load data from external sources that require an access token, or an Esri (FeatureSet) JSON string. An Esri JSON (.json) is a standard for encoding feature (geometry and attribute) data as a JSON object.	String

Propiedades

Propiedad	Explicación	Tipo de datos
JSON (Sólo lectura)	Returns an Esri JSON representation of the geometry as a string. Sugerencia: The returned string can be converted to a dictionary using the json module's loads function.	String

Descripción general del método

Método	Explicación
load (table_path, {where_clause}, {time_filter}, {renderer}, {is_renderer})	Imports a table into the FeatureSet object.
save (table_path)	Export to a table.

Métodos

load (table_path, {where_clause}, {time_filter}, {renderer}, {is_renderer})

Parámetro	Explicación	Tipo de datos
table_path	The features to load into the FeatureSet object. The input can be a catalog path to a feature class, a URL to a hosted feature layer, a JSON with the syntax {"url":"<url>", "serviceToken":"<ServiceToken>"} to load data from external sources that require an access token, or an Esri JSON string.	String
where_clause	An SQL expression used to select a subset of records. For more information on SQL syntax, see SQL reference for query expressions used in ArcGIS. (El valor predeterminado es None)	String
time_filter	The time instant or the time extent to query. The time filter can only be applied to hosted feature layers, and the layer must be time-enabled. A time instant should be formatted as a string, for example, "1199145600000" ((1 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT). A time extent should be a comma-delimited string, for example: "1199145600000, 1230768000000" (1 Jan 2008 00:00:00 GMT to 1 Jan 2009 00:00:00 GMT). A null value specified for the start time or the end time will represent infinity for the start or the end time, respectively, for example: "null, 1230768000000". (El valor predeterminado es None)	String
renderer	The output FeatureSet symbology can be set using a string, or dictionary representation of either a JSON renderer or a JSON definition object. Learn more about JSON renderers and JSON definition objects. (El valor predeterminado es None)	String
is_renderer	Specifies the type of the value used with the renderer argument. Set to True if the value is a renderer object, and False if the value is a definition. (El valor predeterminado es None)	Boolean

The optional arguments are positional only; they cannot be passed by named arguments. For example, if the intent is to only specify symbology, the optional arguments where_clause and time_filter must be skipped using None.

save (table_path)

Parámetro	Explicación	Tipo de datos
table_path	The output table to be created.	String

FeatureSet example 1

Load data into a feature class and insert into a FeatureSet.

import arcpy

arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = True

arcpy.ImportToolbox("http://flame7/arcgis/services;BufferByVal",
                    "servertools")

# List of coordinates
coordinates = [[-117.196717216, 34.046944853],

# Create an in_memory feature class to initially contain the coordinate pairs
feature_class = arcpy.CreateFeatureclass_management(
    "in_memory", "tempfc", "POINT")[0]

# Open an insert cursor
with arcpy.da.InsertCursor(feature_class, ["SHAPE@XY"]) as cursor:
    # Iterate through list of coordinates and add to cursor
    for (x, y) in coordinates:
        cursor.insertRow([(x, y)])

# Create a FeatureSet object and load in_memory feature class
feature_set = arcpy.FeatureSet()
feature_set.load(feature_class)

results = arcpy.BufferPoints_servertools(feature_set)

FeatureSet example 2

Load a subset of data from ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World into a FeatureSet and set the symbology.

import arcpy

# Set data
in_data = "https://services.arcgis.com/P3ePLMYs2RVChkJx/arcgis/rest/services/USA_States_Generalized/FeatureServer/0"
query = "STATE_NAME = 'California'"
