Collect Features task

This section describes how to customize the Collect Features task.

As illustrated below, the Collect Features task workflow consists of several pages/steps for collecting a feature:

1. Select a feature type, then decide to collect either geometry or attributes.
2. To collect geometry, there are two or three collection methods to choose from: with map, GPS averaging, or GPS streaming.
3. You return to the Finish Options page when both geometry and attributes have been collected.

In this workflow, there are several entry points that can be customized or extended:

• When feature collection begins/ends
• When geometry collection begins/ends
• Customizing available geometry collection methods
• Customizing GPS averaging and streaming
• Customizing Finish Collection options

Functions can be hooked to these extensible points with events in the CollectFeaturesTask class. For example, you can write an event handler for the CollectionCompleted event if you need some extra validation after finishing with collecting attributes or geometry.
