Class ITimeDataDisplayProxy

java.lang.Object
  com.esri.arcgis.interop.Dispatch
      com.esri.arcgis.carto.ITimeDataDisplayProxy

All Implemented Interfaces:

ITimeDataDisplay, Externalizable, Serializable

public class ITimeDataDisplayProxy
extends com.esri.arcgis.interop.Dispatch
implements ITimeDataDisplay, Serializable

Provides access to time animation related properties of a layer.

Description

ITimeDataDisplay is an interface which provides details about how the layer can treat the time-related data when it responds to temporal queries. The properties in this interface do not need to be changed in order for the layer to display time-related data. They are used to make the display of time-related data more meaningful, and to make analysis of the data more effective in certain settings.

setTimeDataCumulative

public void setTimeDataCumulative(boolean cumilative)
                           throws IOException,
                                  AutomationException

Indicates that features will be animated cumilatively.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Specified by:

setTimeDataCumulative in interface ITimeDataDisplay

Parameters:

cumilative - The cumilative (in)

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

isTimeDataCumulative

public boolean isTimeDataCumulative()
                             throws IOException,
                                    AutomationException

Indicates that features will be animated cumilatively.

Description

TimeDataCumulative is true when the data should be persist on the display as it ages. This is useful in settings where the new data "builds upon" historical data. For example when displaying the location of a wild animal, this property will cause the layer to display all of the historical locations for the animal, providing a good view of the animal's territory.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Specified by:

isTimeDataCumulative in interface ITimeDataDisplay

Returns:

The cumilative

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

setTimeInterval

public void setTimeInterval(double interval)
                     throws IOException,
                            AutomationException

Returns recommended time interval to be used to animate this layer/ table.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Specified by:

setTimeInterval in interface ITimeDataDisplay

Parameters:

interval - The interval (in)

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

getTimeInterval

public double getTimeInterval()
                       throws IOException,
                              AutomationException

Returns recommended time interval to be used to animate this layer/ table.

Description

This property represents the time interval of the data used when rendering the layer. The time interval represents the minimum expected time between changes in the data. For example, when using weather imagery that is updated every 10 minutes, you would set the time interval to 10 minutes. When using census data that is recorded every year, the time interval would be set to 1 year. Note that this property is the value of the interval, and must be set along with the units for the time interval.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Specified by:

getTimeInterval in interface ITimeDataDisplay

Returns:

The interval

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Specified by:

setTimeIntervalUnits in interface ITimeDataDisplay

public int getTimeIntervalUnits()
                         throws IOException,
                                AutomationException

Returns recommended time interval units to be used to animate this layer/ table.

Description

This property is the enumerated value representing the time units used when measuring the time interval. This property should be read/written along with the time interval value. For more information about the time interval, see the documentation on the TimeInterval property.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Specified by:

getTimeIntervalUnits in interface ITimeDataDisplay

Returns:

A com.esri.arcgis.system.esriTimeUnits constant

setTimeOffset

public void setTimeOffset(double timeOffset)
                   throws IOException,
                          AutomationException

Returns time offset that needs to be applied to the data for drawing.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Specified by:

setTimeOffset in interface ITimeDataDisplay

Parameters:

timeOffset - The timeOffset (in)

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

getTimeOffset

public double getTimeOffset()
                     throws IOException,
                            AutomationException

Returns time offset that needs to be applied to the data for drawing.

Description

The TimeOffset is used to display data at a different time on the timeline. This is for temporary purposes only. It can be useful for comparing data sets from different time period when you need to display the two sets of data together. For example, to visualize the growth pattern of two wild fires that happened in two different years, one of the layers can be given an offset that will cause it to appear as if the fire started at the same time as the other fire. In this way the growth patterns can be seen together, and compared.
