Templates describe features that can be created in a layer. Templates are used with map notes, other feature collections, and editable web-based CSV layers. They are not used with ArcGIS feature services, which already have feature templates defined in the service.

Templates are defined as a property of the layer definition when there are no types defined; otherwise, templates are defined as properties of the types.

Part of the Esri web map specification. See http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/arcgis-web-map-json/.
