  1. Mapping and GIS for the Internet Ruilan Shi Department of Geography McGill University Presented on June 1, 2001 on Carto2001

  2. Contents • ArcIMS Features • ArcIMS Architecture • Tech Specs • Quick demo using ArcIMS Manager

  3. ArcIMS FeaturesWhy ArcIMS ? • Integrate local and Internet data • Easily create, design, and manage Web sites • Maximize your data investment • Provide Access to GIS data and services • Powerfully intelligent clients • Highly scalable server architecture • Advanced portability options

  4. ArcIMS Architecture

  5. ArcIMS Manager • Author MapServise files • Design web pages • Publish MapServises and administer ArcIMS Spatial servers

  6. Application Server & Connector • ArcIMS Components

  7. Spatial Server • Image Rending: generates and send maps to Web browsers as JPEG, PNG, or GIF images • Feature Streaming: sends shapefiles and ArcSDE data sets in a compressed binary format to a Java Applet in the client Web browser. • Query: returns associated data for spatial and tabular queries. • Geocoding: locates addresses on maps. • Data Extraction: returns data in shapefile format
