Constructor Details

new CreateDriveTimeAreas(params, srcNodeRef)

Creates a new CreateDriveTimeAreas dijit using the given DOM node.
Parameters:
<Object> params Required Various options to configure this dijit.
<Node | String> srcNodeRef Required Reference or id of a HTML element that this dijit is rendered into.
params properties:
<String> analysisGpServer Optional The URL to the GPServer used to execute an analysis job.

* Required when portalUrl is not specified.
<String> breakUnits Optional The units of the breakValues parameter. The default is "Minutes".
<Number[]> breakValues Optional An array of driving time break values. The numeric break value or values are passed in as an array of numbers. By setting multiple, unique values in the array, polygons of different sizes are generated around each input location.
<FeatureLayer> inputLayer Required The point feature layer around which drive-time areas will be drawn.

* Required.
<String> inputType Optional The geometry type of the input layer.
<Map> map Optional Reference to the map object.

* Required when showChooseExtent is true.
<String> outputLayerName Optional The name of the output layer to be shown in the Result layer name inputbox. If not specified, "Drive from ${input_layer_title} (${time_or_distance})" will be shown by default.
<String> overlapPolicy Optional The rule of overlap. When generating areas for more than one location, the drive-time areas may converge. You can choose to let the converging areas:
  • Overlap - Drive-time areas from different input points may cover the same road. This is useful when you need to know all the input points that can reach a particular location within the given drive time or distance.
  • Dissolve - All drive-time areas are merged into one, and no more than one area can cover a particular location. This is useful when all you need to know is that an area can be reached within a given time or distance, but you don't need to know which specific input points can reach the location. If multiple break values are passed in to create various drive-time areas around each input location, the areas with the same break values are dissolved together, irrespective of the input point from which they are measured.
  • Split - The drive-time areas from different input locations that would overlap each other are split in the middle so they abut one another instead. This is useful when you want to see which areas are within a given time or distance of the input points and at the same time determine which input point is closest to that area.
<String> portalUrl Optional The url to the ArcGIS.com site or in-house portal where the GP server is hosted.

* Required when analysisGpServer is not specified.
<Boolean> returnFeatureCollection Optional When true, returns the result of analysis as a client-side feature collection. This value determines whether or not the result will be saved and published on a user's arcgis.com account.
<Boolean> showChooseExtent Optional When true, the choose extent checkbox will be shown.
<Boolean> showCredits Optional When true, the show credit option is visible.
<Boolean> showHelp Optional When true, the help links will be shown.
<Boolean> showSelectFolder Optional When true, the select folder dropdown will be shown. This parameter should be used when you want to allow users to select a folder in their arcgis.com account where the output feature layer will be exported as a service.
Sample:
require(["esri/dijit/analysis/CreateDriveTimeAreas" ... ], function(CreateDriveTimeAreas, ... ){
  var createDriveTimeAreas = new CreateDriveTimeAreas({
    inputLayer: results[0].layer,
    map: map,
    portalUrl: "http://www.arcgis.com"
  }, "analysis-tool");
});
