Geometry service AutoComplete method

The AutoComplete method constructs polygons that fill in the gaps between existing polygons and a set of polylines.

AutoComplete(SpatialReference SpatialReference, Polygon[] InPolygons, Polyline[] InCompletionLines)

Parameter

Description

SpatialReference

The spatial reference of the input polygons and polylines. This cannot be null.

InPolygons

An array of polygons that will provide some boundaries for new polygons.

InCompletionLines

An array of polylines that will provide the remaining boundaries for new polygons.

Return Value

An array of polygons (Polygon[]).

Remarks

The AutoComplete operation simplifies the process of constructing new polygons that are adjacent to other polygons. For example, you can create a new land parcel by combining one new polyline with existing, adjacent parcel polygons. In the figure below, polygons A, B, and C are combined with polyline D to produce a new parcel polygon.
