Raster Layer File

Demonstrates how to create and use a raster layer made from a local raster file.

How it works

To add a RasterLayer as an operational layer from a local raster file:

• Create a Raster from a raster file.
• Create a RasterLayer from the Raster.
• Add it as an operational layer with map.getOperationalLayers().add(rasterLayer).

• RasterLayer

Provision your device

1. Download the raster-file.zip data from ArcGIS Online.
2. Extract the contents of the downloaded zip file to disk.
3. Create an ArcGIS/samples/raster folder on your device. You can use the Android Debug Bridge (adb) tool found in /platform-tools.
4. Open up a command prompt and execute the adb shell command to start a remote shell on your target device.
5. Navigate to your sdcard directory, e.g. cd /sdcard/.
6. Create the ArcGIS/samples directory, mkdir ArcGIS/samples/raster.
7. You should now have the following directory on your target device, /sdcard/ArcGIS/samples/raster. We will copy the contents of the downloaded data into this directory. Note: Directory may be slightly different on your device.
8. Exit the shell with the, exit command.
9. While still in your command prompt, navigate to the root folder where you extracted the contents of the data from step 1 and execute the following command:
   • adb push raster-file/. /sdcard/ArcGIS/samples/raster
