GIS Web Services • Arc. GIS Server • Arc. IMS Server • World Map Server

ARCGIS SERVER AND ARCIMS SERVER AMONG THEIR MANY USES ARCGIS AND ARCIMS SERVERS ENABLE PEOPLE TO BRING • MAPS • DATA • TOOLS ON TO THE INTERNET

Adding DOTD GIS Web Service Click Add Content Click GIS Services Click New Server Connection Select Arc. GIS server for Server Type http: //gis. dotd. la. gov/arcgis/services for the Server • Click Next • Choose a Service • • •

WORLD MAP SERVER (WMS) • AN OPEN SOURCE THAT ALLOWS ONE TO REQUEST MAPS FROM A SERVER OVER THE INTERNET • AN EXAMPLE IS NASA’S WORLDWIND

SHAPEFILES • A SIMPLE, NONTOPOLOGICAL FORMAT FOR STORING GEOMETRIC LOCATION AND ATTRIBUTE INFORMATION OF GEOGRAPHIC FEATURES • ARCVIEW 3 X’S NATIVE FORMAT • Shapefiles are accessed the same way as layer files

RASTERS • • • • Imagine image (. img) bitmap (. bmp) JPEG (. jpg, . jpeg) Portable Network Graphics (. png) Graphics Interchange Format (. gif) Tagged Image File Format (. tif, . tiff) ARC/INFO and Space Imaging BIL (. bil) ARC/INFO and Space Imaging BIP (. bip) ARC/INFO and Space Imaging BSQ (. bsq) DTED Level 0 -2 (. dted) ERDAS 7. 5 LAN (. lan) ERDAS 7. 5 GIS (. gis) JP 2 (. jp 2), Mr. SID (. sid) • • • RAW (. raw) NTIF (. ntf) USGS ASCII DEM (. dem) X 11 Pixmap (. xpm) PC Raster (. map) PCI Geomatics Database File (. pix) JPC (. jpc) J 2 C (. j 2 c) J 2 K (. j 2 k) HDF (. hdf) BSB (. kap) ER Mapper ECW (. ecw) Note: Rasters are accessed the same way as layer files

GEODATABASE DATA • File Geodatabase – a collection of various types of GIS datasets held in a file system folder • Must add GIS Server again! • Connect to an Arc. SDE database (Arc. SDE is ESRI's technology for accessing and managing geospatial data within relational databases. )

Adding Arc. SDE Geodatabase

View • Bookmarks for locations

PRESENTATIONS • • Creating a presentation Capturing slides Reviewing Slides Setting a Slide Title

CREATING PRESENTATIONS • Capturing slides includes: • The current camera position/extent • The current basemap • The visibility of the various map items (what’s on, what’s off) • Any popup windows that are opened and their size and position Does not include: • Individual properties of a map item (symbol, transparency, etc) • Application level settings (navigator position, vertical exaggeration, stars, fog, etc. )

EDITING SLIDES • Delete the slide from the map • Hide the slide: this keeps the slide in the map, but skips it during the presentation • Re-capture the slide: this replaces the selected slide with the current state of the map

REVIEWING SLIDES

SETTING A SLIDE TITLE • Edit Text • Change text position • Change text color and background color • Change Font, size, emphasis

Add-Ins • Adds extra functionality • Examples include Google Street Viewer, Bing Bird’s Eye View, Create Microsoft Power. Point, Previous Extent/Next Extent, Query
