App 2 – the restaurant mapping
application
This is the second example that features a restaurant mapping application where
you will build an application on top of ArcGIS for Desktop that allows users to view,
search, highlight restaurants on the map, and compare their ratings and reviews.
Belize is thriving with tourism. Lots of tourists go there on holidays to enjoy its
beautiful beaches and a wide range of restaurants. The government of Belize is trying
to enrich the tourists' experience by finding their favorite restaurants in the country
more effectively.
To accomplish that, a new project titled Bestaurants has been proposed to design a
restaurant mapping application on top of ArcGIS for Desktop to feature the best
restaurants in Belize. The application will contain a map that shows the city of Belize
and the restaurants with key icons based on the restaurant type. For example, a café
will be shown as a coffee mug and a restaurant will be displayed as a fork and a knife.
Users should be able to search for restaurants by name, region, category, or rating.
Using the Bestaurants geodatabase, we will build this application from scratch to
satisfy these requirements. In Chapter 5, App 2 – Extending ArcObjects, we start off
by learning a bit about a different deployment approach with ArcObjects. We learn
about building our first toolbar on ArcMap and add a button to it. We will learn how
to query the subtypes that we have mentioned in the ArcGIS geodatabase section
and populate them in a form. We will then filter the restaurants based on a selected
subtype. We will kick off Chapter 6, Reviews and Ratings, by talking about relationships
and then use this knowledge to learn how to query relationship classes in ArcObjects.
This will be useful to retrieve ratings and reviews since these are related information
that is located in another table. We will also learn how to filter the layer to show
searched results. Finally, in Chapter 7, Advanced Searching, we include the region feature
class and use the intersect tool to find all restaurants within a region and populate
them in the form. We will also show how to add a text box to our toolbar and add
search functionality to search for results as we type in the text box. This will make it
easy for users to simply type the name or even part of the name of the restaurant and
show it on the map.
