ArcGIS Server Map Plugin

Features

Military Symbol Rendering: Uses ArcGIS DictionaryRenderer with MIL-STD-2525D standard
Multiple Geometry Support: Point, multipoint, line, and polygon symbols
Interactive Features: Click selection, freehand drawing, and ink layer
Flexible Configuration: Support for custom MIL-STD-2525 dictionaries via URL or Portal Item ID
Direct StpSymbol Integration: Uses StpSymbol objects directly as graphic attributes for optimal performance

Field Mapping Architecture

The plugin maps StpSymbol properties to ArcGIS DictionaryRenderer fields:

| Dictionary Field | StpSymbol Property | Description | |------------------|-------------------|-------------| | sidc | deltaSIDC | MIL-STD-2525D symbol identifier (computed from sidc.partA/B/C) | | uniquedesignation | designator1 | Primary unit designator | | higherformation | parent | Parent unit designator | | datetimevalid | timeFrom | Symbol validity start time | | datetimeexpired | timeTo | Symbol validity end time | | z | minAltitude | Minimum altitude | | z2 | maxAltitude | Maximum altitude |

Quick Start

1. Include Dependencies

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <!-- ArcGIS JS API CSS -->
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://js.arcgis.com/4.29/esri/themes/light/main.css" />
</head>
<body>
  <!-- ArcGIS JS API (AMD loader) -->
  <script src="https://js.arcgis.com/4.29/"></script>
  
  <!-- ArcGIS adapter bundle -->
  <script src="path/to/arcgis-bundle-min.js"></script>
  
  <!-- STP SDK -->
  <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/sketch-thru-plan-sdk@latest/dist/sketch-thru-plan-sdk-bundle-min.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

2. Create Map Instance

<div id="map" style="height: 600px"></div>
<script>
  // Create map with optional configurations
  const map = new window.ArcGISMap(
    null,                              // API key (null for public services)
    'map',                            // Map div ID
    { lat: 34.05, lon: -118.24 },     // Center coordinates
    12,                               // Zoom level
    {
      // Optional: Override MIL-STD-2525 dictionary
      mil2525StyleUrl: 'https://your-style-url.com',
      // OR use Portal Item ID
      mil2525PortalItemId: 'your-portal-item-id'
    }
  );

  // Load the map
  map.load().then(() => {
    console.log('Map loaded successfully');
    
    // Add symbol features using StpSymbol.asGeoJSON()
    map.addFeature(symbolGeoJSON);
  });
</script>

3. Add Military Symbols

// Assuming you have an StpSymbol instance from STP SDK
const stpSymbol = new StpSDK.StpSymbol();
stpSymbol.sidc = new StpSDK.Sidc();
stpSymbol.sidc.partA = '1003100000';
stpSymbol.sidc.partB = '1211000000';  
stpSymbol.designator1 = 'A';
stpSymbol.parent = '1/1';
stpSymbol.location = new StpSDK.Location();
// ... configure symbol properties

// Convert to GeoJSON and add to map
const symbolGeoJSON = stpSymbol.asGeoJSON();
map.addFeature(symbolGeoJSON);

Creating Your Own Application

Follow these steps to create a new application based on the c2sim-arcgis sample:

1. Project Setup

# Create new project directory
mkdir my-arcgis-app
cd my-arcgis-app

# Initialize package.json
npm init -y

# Install dependencies
npm install sketch-thru-plan-sdk
npm install --save-dev typescript rollup @rollup/plugin-node-resolve @rollup/plugin-commonjs terser cpx2 rimraf

2. Project Structure

my-arcgis-app/
├── package.json
├── tsconfig.json
├── src/
│   ├── index.html
│   ├── index.ts
│   └── styles.css
└── dist/           # Generated by build

3. Configure TypeScript (tsconfig.json)

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "ES2018",
    "module": "ES2018",
    "lib": ["ES2018", "DOM"],
    "outDir": "./dist",
    "rootDir": "./src",
    "strict": true,
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "skipLibCheck": true,
    "forceConsistentCasingInFileNames": true,
    "moduleResolution": "node"
  },
  "include": ["src/**/*"],
  "exclude": ["node_modules", "dist"]
}

4. Build Configuration (package.json scripts)

{
  "scripts": {
    "clean": "rimraf ./dist",
    "build": "npm run clean && tsc && npm run bundle && npm run bundle:min && npm run copyhtml",
    "bundle": "rollup ./dist/index.js --file ./dist/index.js --format iife --plugin @rollup/plugin-node-resolve={browser:true,preferBuiltins:false} --plugin @rollup/plugin-commonjs --external sketch-thru-plan-sdk --globals sketch-thru-plan-sdk=StpSDK",
    "bundle:min": "terser --ecma 6 --compress --mangle --module -o ./dist/index.min.js -- ./dist/index.js",
    "copyhtml": "cpx2 \"src/*.css\" \"dist\" && cpx2 \"src/*.html\" \"dist\""
  }
}

5. Basic HTML Template (src/index.html)

<!DOCTYPE html>
