The Summarize Points task aggregates data from a point layer to a polygon layer.

This task allows you to take point data (e.g. customer data) in Community Analyst along with any associated volumetric data and sum that data up to any boundary layer (e.g. Census Tracts). For example, if you needed to see the distribution of the sales data associated with your customer points across the ZIP Codes in your market, this endpoint would allow you to see total sales associated with each ZIP Code of your interest. It would perform this function by automatically selecting all the points which fall into each ZIP Code and then summing up the selected fields to each ZIP Code boundary.

The result of this task is a TaskResultOutput object, which is compatible with ArcGIS Server's mapping APIs. FeatureSet, MapImage, and an array of ReportInfo objects can be returned depending on the task output options requested. The array of ReportInfo items if returned contains the single report. Additionally, the output analysis layer and/or report can be stored to the Business Analyst Server repository.

Implementation

Constructor Detail
SummarizePointsTask()Constructor
public function SummarizePointsTask(urlOrClient:Object = null)

Creates a new instance of the SummarizePointsTask class.

A new task can be constructed in two ways: as a task sharing a BAServerClient type instance with other tasks (the urlOrClient parameter has the BAServerClient type) or as a standalone task encapsulating its own client.

The base URL to the Business Analyst Server HTTP Service looks as follows:

http://{host}:{port}/ArcGIS/baserver/REST/services/DefaultMap/BAServer

The {host} and {port} parameters in this URL should be substituted with valid Business Analyst Server host name and port, respectively.

Parameters
urlOrClient:Object (default = null) — A variable containing either Business Analyst Server HTTP Service base URL string or an instance of the BAServerClient class.

Method Detail
createCommand()method
public function createCommand(parameters:SummarizePointsParameters, commandName:String = null):BACommand

Creates a new command encapsulating this task and the given parameters.

Parameters

parameters:SummarizePointsParameters — Parameters of a task to be executed.
 
commandName:String (default = null) — Command name.

Returns
BACommand — A new command.
execute()method 
public function execute(parameters:SummarizePointsParameters, responder:IResponder = null):AsyncToken

Sends a request for executing a Summarize Points task to the Business Analyst Server HTTP (REST) Service.

A response can be received in two ways—in an optional responder object passed in parameters of this method and/or in listeners of fault and taskCompleted events registered for this task.

The responder is notified first when a response is received and parsed. Its fault method receives a parameter of the FaultEvent type and its result method receives a parameter of the BATaskCompletedEvent type whose result property contains the result object. After that the received event is dispatched to listeners of this task.

If a response is succesfully received and parsed, the result is assigned to the lastResult property of this task.

Parameters

parameters:SummarizePointsParameters — Parameters of the task.
 
responder:IResponder (default = null) — A responder to call on result or fault.

Returns
AsyncToken — Asynch token associated with the response.
