00:01Continuing on the theme of building rich, native apps for mobile platforms in offline scenarios...

00:06...I'm going to show you what you can do with the ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Android and the Android platform itself.

00:13So here I have an ice cream sandwich tablet that's running 4.0 of Google's Android operating system, the latest version.

00:19So you can see that with the Runtime SDK, we're trying our hardest to support all of the latest versions that come out for Android.

00:27The application I'm going to launch is built with 1.1 of the Android SDK, and that's going to be available to you next week.

00:33And it's got some cool, neat features in it, and I'll take you through some of those neat features as I show you the app.

00:39The app is an app for an inspector to go out and look at wind turbines in the Palm Springs area.

00:45You might have seen some of these as you drove into town.

00:47So let's go ahead and launch the app.

00:50So this is a cool map, right? It's a completely blank screen.

00:53You might be thinking that's the first crash of the plenary. Luckily, that's supposed to happen.

00:58And the reason is because all of the data is actually on this tiny little SD card that hopefully you can see on the side of this device.

01:06So as soon as I plug that in, the SD card registers, and as if by magic, you can see the data come to life.

01:14So all this data is stored on the SD card, and there's base data that's a tiled service layer--sorry, tiled map layer.

01:22And that's being created from a map package exported from ArcGIS Server.

01:27In addition to that, you've got a feature layer on top of it, and this is an offline, in-memory feature layer.

01:32It's being created from a feature set, and this is available to you in the 1.0 version of the SDK that was out in December.

01:43Now, in 1.1, we're adding the ability to write features to and from JSON, so that's actually how it's been hydrated off of the disk.

01:49There's just been some JSON on the disk; it's been brought up and brought to life in the map.

01:53And as you can see, you've got the same cool, nice, smooth performance you'd expect.

01:58Okay, so what can this app do?

02:00So I can also do some local analysis.

02:03I can select some features on the map, draw a polygon, and what this has done is gone and selected a bunch of wind turbines.

02:15And that's all been done completely offline.

02:17So that's been done by the geometry engine class.

02:20This is a class that was available to you in 1.0 of the SDK--again, in December...

02:24...and it gives you the ability to do clips, buffers, intersections, and all of the other geometry operations that you'd expect from ArcGIS.

02:32Okay, so now I've planned where I want to go and what I want to inspect. Let's simulate going out into the field.

02:39The other cool thing about the Android platform is that you can plug in external devices of USB or by Bluetooth.

02:47So I'm going to need a volunteer to help me with this.

02:49Hopefully, Mr. David Cardella is going to come out on stage and pretend to be a wind turbine.

02:57So wave those hands. It's not a bad demo of a wind turbine.

03:02So what I've done is I've Bluetoothed my device--there we go. They suit you, David, they really do suit you.

03:16So I'm going to Bluetooth my device here; just make sure it's turned on...

03:25...and I'm going to take a shot at David's head, make it count.

03:29So please put on safety glasses; there is a laser included in here.

03:33And what we'll see is that the information from this device--I got him right in the eye--has been transferred to my application.

03:42Thanks, David. You're good; you're just a little shorter than I thought you were.

03:48Okay, so we can see the information from the laser range finder's been added on...

03:51...and we've actually added a new point based on the offset and the bearing of this device.

03:57So this shows you how you can integrate external devices that you commonly use out in the field.

04:04Okay, so that's one application that's been built with the ArcGIS for Android Runtime SDK.

04:10Now I'm going to go over and show you another application that's been built with the same SDK.

04:16This is the ArcGIS application for Android. It's available in the Google Play market, app store--whatever it's called these days...

04:24...and you can also see that it's running on the Kindle Fire.

04:27So since yesterday, I'm pleased to announce that this application is now available in the Amazon App Store.

04:32And I went and downloaded it yesterday.

04:35And this app, if you've seen it, gives the ability to look at all of your content from ArcGIS Online...

04:40...or that's been shared with you from your organization or your friends, and it also gives me the ability to open up some favorites.

04:48I'm going to go and open up one of my favorite maps.

04:52So this is a map of meter inspections in the city of Riverside here in California...

05:00...and you'll see it's got some base data, some dynamic map services, and some feature layers.

05:05This ArcGIS application gives you the ability to do some local queries, and the thing I want to show you...

05:13...is that it includes the ability to pull in pop-ups.

05:16Now, these pop-ups have been authored in Online; you've seen them--Jeremy did it this morning.

05:21And these are a much better way of displaying information to our users, 'cause it can summarize your data in a much easier way.

05:27You can look at hyperlinks to photos, you can summarize your attributes as pie charts, bar charts, and line graphs.

05:36Now these pop-ups are classes that are in our SDK today.

05:39So 1.0 of the Runtime SDK, you can create an application and leverage these pop-ups...

05:44...with a very small amount of code and just some configuration.

05:49So that's the app running on the Kindle Fire.

05:52The other thing I want to talk about for the Android platform is fragmentation.

05:55This is something that you probably all are aware of and it's been talked about a lot in the press.

06:00And we know how difficult it is to write applications that are supported on all of the devices that are out there.

06:05So what we've done is we've tried really hard in the SDK to support as many platforms as you possibly can...

06:11...so we support Android 2.2 and above; that gives you access to 95 percent of all of the Android devices out there...

06:18...and that's over 300 million devices.

06:21So we think you can write apps and get it out to enough people.

06:25So let me just summarize. The thing that you've seen here today...

06:27...you've seen a custom iOS application, you've seen a custom Android application, all built with the SDK.

06:33But there's one other thing I just want to mention before I hand back to you.

06:38So the application that you've seen running on here, the ArcGIS application...

06:41...we know that it does 80 percent of what you want it to do, but we also know that you would like to pick up this application...

06:47...and maybe modify it slightly with your own colors and add some of your own custom functionality.

06:52So we're committed in the next few months to open sourcing these applications for the Android and iOS platform...

06:58...to give you all the ability to do what you want with it.
