AzureTrafficIncidentDataProvider Class

Communicates with the Azure Maps service to obtain information about traffic incidents and display them on the map.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraMap

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraMap.v24.2.dll

Declaration

public class AzureTrafficIncidentDataProvider :
    AzureMapDataProviderBase

Remarks

The DevExpress.XtraMap.AzureTrafficIncidentDataProvider implements the Azure Maps service. Assign such an object to the InformationLayer.DataProvider property to enable the service’s access to traffic incident information, and display incidents on the map. Specify AzureTrafficIncidentDataProvider.AzureKey to access data from Azure Maps. A key is obtained when you create an Azure Maps account.

Azure Maps services support JSON response formats. Install the System.Text.Json package in projects that target .NET Framework to parse the Azure server response and display information on a DevExpress Map control.

Call the provider’s RequestTrafficIncidents method to receive a list of incidents. The AzureRouteOptions parameter allows you to specify traffic incident options.

The following code displays traffic incidents that occurred in the specified area:

using DevExpress.XtraMap;
// ...
const string key = "your key";
AzureTrafficIncidentDataProvider trafficIncidentProvider;
// ...
public Form1() {
    InitializeComponent();
    trafficIncidentProvider = new AzureTrafficIncidentDataProvider {
        AzureKey = key 
    };
    imageLayer2.DataProvider = new AzureMapDataProvider() {
        AzureKey = key,
        Tileset = AzureTileset.BaseHybridRoad
    };
    imageLayer1.DataProvider = new AzureMapDataProvider() {
        AzureKey = key,
        Tileset = AzureTileset.Imagery,
    };
    informationLayer1.DataProvider = trafficIncidentProvider;  
    trafficIncidentProvider.RequestTrafficIncidents(new SearchBoundingBox(-115.338457, 36.268745, 
      -114.988268, 36.1010376), 18, -1,
      new AzureTrafficIncidentOptions {
          OriginalPosition = false,
          IncidentGeometryType = AzureTrafficIncidentGeometryType.Shifted
      });
}

Obtain and Display a List of Traffic Incidents

After you obtain a list of incidents in the RequestTrafficIncidents method, the provider raises the TrafficIncidentCalculated event. You can handle the event to access the collection of received incidents or add custom logic.

This example obtains a list of incidents in the specified area from the Azure Maps service and displays information about obtained incidents in a MemoEdit control:

Display a list of traffic incidents

using DevExpress.XtraMap;
using System.Text;
// ...
const string key = "your key";
AzureTrafficIncidentDataProvider trafficIncidentProvider;
// ...
public Form1() {
    InitializeComponent();
    trafficIncidentProvider = new AzureTrafficIncidentDataProvider {
        AzureKey = key 
    };
    imageLayer2.DataProvider = new AzureMapDataProvider() {
        AzureKey = key,
        Tileset = AzureTileset.BaseHybridRoad
    };
    imageLayer1.DataProvider = new AzureMapDataProvider() {
        AzureKey = key,
        Tileset = AzureTileset.Imagery,
    };
    informationLayer1.DataProvider = trafficIncidentProvider;
    informationLayer1.DataRequestCompleted += OnDataRequestCompleted;
    trafficIncidentProvider.TrafficIncidentCalculated += OnTrafficIncidentCalculated;  
    trafficIncidentProvider.RequestTrafficIncidents(new SearchBoundingBox(-115.338457, 36.268745, 
      -114.988268, 36.1010376), 18, -1,
      new AzureTrafficIncidentOptions {
          OriginalPosition = false,
          IncidentGeometryType = AzureTrafficIncidentGeometryType.Shifted
      });
}
void OnDataRequestCompleted(object sender, RequestCompletedEventArgs e) {
    mapControl1.ZoomToFitLayerItems();
}
private void OnTrafficIncidentCalculated(object sender, AzureTrafficIncidentCalculatedEventArgs e) {
    if (e.Cancelled) return;
    if (e.RequestResult.ResultCode != RequestResultCode.Success) {
        memoEdit1.Text = "Traffic incidents were not found for this area.";
        return;
    }
    StringBuilder resultList = new StringBuilder("");
    int resCounter = 1;
    foreach (AzureTrafficIncidentResult resultInfo in e.RequestResult.IncidentResults) {
        resultList.Append(string.Format("Incident {0}:  \r\n", resCounter));
        resultList.Append(string.Format("Cause: {0}\r\n", resultInfo.Cause));
        resultList.Append(string.Format("Description: {0}\r\n", resultInfo.Description));
        resultList.Append(string.Format("Start Time: {0}\r\n", resultInfo.StartDate));
        resultList.Append(string.Format("End Time: {0}\r\n", resultInfo.EndDate));
        resultList.Append(string.Format("Lat: {0}, Lon: {1}\r\n", resultInfo.Point.Latitude, resultInfo.Point.Longitude));
        resultList.Append(string.Format("_______________________\r\n"));
        resCounter++;
    }
    memoEdit1.Text = resultList.ToString();
}
