Description
Work with advanced layer types including WMS, WFS, WMTS, OGCFeatureLayer, KMLLayer, MapImageLayer, CatalogLayer, MediaLayer, and VideoLayer. Use for OGC services, server-side rendering, georeferenced media content, and live video feeds from ArcGIS Video Server.

ArcGIS Advanced Layers

Use this skill for working with OGC services (WMS, WFS, WMTS, OGC API Features), KML/KMZ files, MapImageLayer, CatalogLayer, MediaLayer, and dynamic data layers.

Related skills: See arcgis-layers for common layer types (FeatureLayer, GraphicsLayer, GeoJSONLayer, etc.).

const georeference = new ControlPointsGeoreference({
  controlPoints: [
    {
      sourcePoint: { x: 0, y: 0 }, // Top-left of image (pixels)
      mapPoint: { x: -122.5, y: 38.0 }, // Map coordinates

      xmax: -122.0,
      ymax: 38.0,
      spatialReference: { wkid: 4326 },
    }),
  }),
});

const mediaLayer = new MediaLayer({
  source: [videoElement],
});

// Control video playback
videoElement.content.play();
videoElement.content.pause();
videoElement.content.currentTime = 30;

MediaLayer with Opacity and Blend Mode

const mediaLayer = new MediaLayer({
  source: [imageElement],
  opacity: 0.7,
  blendMode: "multiply", // normal, multiply, luminosity, etc.
});

// Change dynamically
mediaLayer.opacity = 0.5;
mediaLayer.blendMode = "luminosity";

// Individual element opacity
imageElement.opacity = 0.8;

Interactive Control Points

// Enable interactive editing of georeference control points
const mediaLayerView = await view.whenLayerView(mediaLayer);
mediaLayerView.interactive = true;

// Disable when done
mediaLayerView.interactive = false;

VideoLayer

Display live video feeds from an ArcGIS Video Server. VideoLayer extends Layer and is added to a Map like any other layer. Pair it with the arcgis-video-player widget (see arcgis-widgets-advanced) for playback controls.

Basic VideoLayer

import VideoLayer from "@arcgis/core/layers/VideoLayer.js";

const videoLayer = new VideoLayer({
  url: "https://your-server.com/arcgis/rest/services/VideoService/VideoServer",
});

map.add(videoLayer);

With VideoPlayer Widget

<arcgis-map basemap="streets-vector">
  <arcgis-video-player slot="top-right"></arcgis-video-player>
</arcgis-map>

import VideoLayer from "@arcgis/core/layers/VideoLayer.js";

const viewElement = document.querySelector("arcgis-map");
const videoPlayer = document.querySelector("arcgis-video-player");

await viewElement.viewOnReady();

const videoLayer = new VideoLayer({
  url: "https://your-server.com/arcgis/rest/services/VideoService/VideoServer",
});

viewElement.map.add(videoLayer);
videoPlayer.layer = videoLayer;

Limitations

  • Only supported in 2D MapView — not available in 3D SceneView
  • Not supported on macOS or iOS devices
  • Requires a valid ArcGIS Video Server endpoint (not a generic video file URL — use MediaLayer with VideoElement for local or remote video files)

Common Pitfalls

  1. WFS version requirement: WFSLayer requires WFS 2.0.0 with GeoJSON output format. Older WFS versions or services without GeoJSON support will fail.

  2. CORS on OGC services: External OGC services (WMS, WFS, WMTS) need CORS headers enabled or a proxy configuration. Without CORS, the browser blocks cross-origin requests silently.

  3. MapImageLayer sublayer IDs: Sublayer id values must exactly match the service layer IDs. Using incorrect IDs results in empty or missing sublayers.

  4. Dynamic data sources require registered workspaces: Data layer sources (source.type: "data-layer") only work with workspace IDs registered on the ArcGIS Server. The workspace must be preconfigured by the server administrator.

  5. CatalogLayer portal URL: For non-ArcGIS Online items, you must specify the portal.url in the portalItem configuration. Omitting it defaults to ArcGIS Online.

  6. Field name prefixes in joined tables: When using table joins in MapImageLayer, field names must be prefixed with the table name (e.g., ancestry.Norwegian, states.POP2007).

  7. Media CORS: Images and videos loaded in MediaLayer from external servers require CORS headers. Without them, the image loads but cannot be rendered on the map canvas.

  8. Video autoplay restrictions: Browsers may block autoplay of video elements in MediaLayer. Require user interaction (e.g., a button click) before calling videoElement.content.play().

  9. KMLLayer network links: KML files with network links make additional HTTP requests. Ensure all linked URLs are accessible and CORS-enabled.

  10. WMSLayer sublayer selection: After loading a WMSLayer, all sublayers are visible by default. Explicitly set layer.sublayers to only the sublayers you need, or performance may suffer with services that have many layers.
