Challenge to expand the GIS user base Not everyone is an advanced user Users need more functionality than is available via a web app There is a lot of data out there Takes time find the data you need Data is dispersed, don’t know where it all is May have a central repository, but it’s a big bin with cryptic names
Searching for data in ArcCatalog List of several servers List of all the data
Now they have to figure out… Colors? Symbology? Labeling? What Query statement??? I JUST WANT TO MAKE A MAP…
Don’t let access to data be an obstacle to the use of GIS Simplify loading and the display of data Standardize cartographic display – Symbology – Labeling Make it easy to make a map Expand the user base Get user’s started
How to provide access to a large set of data? Needed to be easy to maintain and expandable Needed provide information on the data, metadata How to deploy the application to our users
