Display tracking server layer


Purpose
This sample demonstrates how to retrieve a temporal layer from a tracking server and display it on a globe. After the globe document is loaded, the application requires that a valid name be provided for the tracking server. The application uses this information to connect to the tracking server, then it retrieves a list of available tracking services that can be added to the globe.

How to use

See How to use ArcGIS samples for help on running the sample.

  1. Run the DisplayTrackingServerLayer application. The application loads a 3DD file. If a 3DD file is not found, click Open to locate a 3DD file.
  2. Click the Add Tracking Server Layer button.
  3. Type the tracking server name and click Connect. The application connects to the tracking server and retrieves a list of available tracking services.
  4. Select a tracking service from the Select Tracking Service dialog box and click Add as Layer. Features from the selected service are rendered on the surface of the globe after the temporal layer is retrieved from the tracking server.
