Geometry (GeometryServer)

Service Description: The geometry service helps applications do geometric calculations such as buffering, simplifying, calculating areas and lengths, and projecting. The geometry service provides an alternative to doing these calculations using fine-grained ArcObjects or a geoprocessing service. The geometry service is especially appropriate for applications built with the ArcGIS REST or JavaScript APIs.

Supported Interfaces:   REST   SOAP

Supported Operations:   Project   Simplify   Buffer   Areas And Lengths   Lengths   Label Points   Relation   Densify   Distance   Union   Intersect   Difference   Cut   TrimExtend   Offset   Generalize   AutoComplete   Reshape   ConvexHull
