Introduction
Version 4.x of the ArcGIS API for JavaScript is a radical new release from Esri that aims to completely replace the existing method of developing ArcGIS Server applications with JavaScript. Its primary aims are to simplify the existing 3.x API and also provide support for both 2D and 3D web mapping applications.
As the web gets ever more efficient at delivering huge amounts of data in a split second, customer expectations of the performance and power of your GIS applications are growing too. And for some visualizations of your data, 2D is not enough. Version 4.0 allows you to build full-featured 3D applications powered by web scenes that can include rich data layers such as terrain, basemaps, imagery, features, and 3D objects. 3D mapping delivered over the web in near real-time.
It is a completely new approach to building web mapping applications. And although promising a new and easier way of development with some incredibly powerful features, it is no doubt going to provoke a fair bit of head-scratching when you first use it. Let us help by taking you through what you need to know to make use of this exciting and innovative new API.
