1. Intranet and internet based software components

2. 2 Overview  What are intranet and internet based map applications?  System Requirements  Architecture (server)  Functionality  Architecture (application)  Interfaces  Special Features  Summary

3. 3 What are intranet and internet based map applications?  Visualisation of point-specific data using your own bitmaps  Call center solutions for closed user groups  Corridor search on route  Stand-alone solution for complete distance and cost calculations  Quality improvement of personal address data (validation during geocoding)  International applications (multilingual itinerary)  On-line fleet monitoring system ...

4. 4 System Requirements  Windows NT, 2000, XP  Min. Pentium 4  Min. 512 MB RAM  2.5 GB memory (depends on map)

5. 5 System Requirements  Very simple installation and similar to map&guide  Sample applications  in ASP for IIS with COM objects  in PHP for Apache with communication classes  in VB for desktop applications with COM objects  map&guide with address monitor belongs to the functional scope

6. 6 Architecture (server)  Server runs with a console for events display and configuration  Server cannot be started as a service, but...  Server has no status  Server is freely scalable  Independent of browser / output medium  Can be connected to databases  Server is based on map&guide  Uses map&guide maps installed locally with the server

7. 7 Functionality Geocoding Routing Map drawing Search for next Special services

8. 8 Functionality Geocoding Routing Map drawing Search for next Address with assigned coordinates Phonetic search Partially with house number precision Validation of addresses Special services

9. 9 Functionality Start / destination with points on route Corridor Search Itinerary (international) Map with Route can be zoomed and navigated Many parameters Geocoding Routing Map drawing Search for next Special services

10. 10 Functionality Use any scale Complete zoom and navigation functions Use your own bitmaps Generate graphics on your hard disk or as a Stream Various graphics formats Geocoding Routing Map drawing Search for next Special services

11. 11 Functionality Direct distance and distance based on road kilometres Max. radius and max. number can be set. Search in your own Database or in a map&guide address layer Geocoding Routing Map drawing Search for next Special services

12. 12 Functionality List of countries List of layers List of vehicle profiles Advanced search Selection of objects Save / load / delete lists of stop-off points Geocoding Routing Map drawing Search for next Special services

13. 13 Architecture (application) – Address Layer Web server Client Web iNETServer Server TCP/IP iNETServer *.adr (Address Layer)

14. 14 Architecture (application) – External database DB Web server Client Web iNETServer Server TCP/IP iNETServer

15. 15 Architecture (application) – Distributed desktop application Client iNETServer Server TCP/IP iNETServer DB

16. 16 Interfaces to Databases  The same as in map&guide Data Manager use cases  Import: Address layers via data import  Connection: Address layers via connected data bases  Auto synchronisation with original database using this connection  However: Search for next can be peformed independently of the server

17. 17 Interfaces to Services  TCP/IP Interface  Port setting : 2000 (configurable)  Own Protocol (similar to batch control interface)  Can be used by every client that allows TCP/IP programming  batch control Interface  ASCII-based  Low functional scope as TCP/IP  Will not be developed further

18. 18 Special Features  Map pictures as stream or saved on hard disk  Search for next according to road kilometres (problem with rivers and mountains)  Lines and shapes can be drawn on the map  The position of additional text can be freely defined on the map

19. 19 Summary ... makes it possible to develop distributed High-End map applications in intranet and internet ... has no status and can be set to any scale ... is compatible with many languages ... is independent of the output medium ... based on map&guide technology / maps ... provides basic services ... contains very flexible TCP/IP interfaces
