Feature layer query

Find features in a feature table which match an SQL query.

Use case

Query expressions can be used in ArcGIS to select a subset of features from a feature table. This is most useful in large or complicated data sets. A possible use case might be on a feature table marking the location of street furniture through a city. A user may wish to query by a TYPE column to return "benches". In this sample, we query a U.S. state by STATE_NAME from a feature table containing all U.S. states.

How to use the sample

Input the name of a U.S. state into the text field. When you tap the button, a query is performed and the matching features are highlighted or an error is returned.

How it works

  1. Create a ServiceFeatureTable using the URL of a feature service.
  2. Create a QueryParameters with a where clause specified using the WhereClause property.
  3. Perform the query using QueryFeaturesAsync(query) on the service feature table.
  4. When complete, the query will return a FeatureQueryResult which can be iterated over to get the matching features.
