PfIntroduction to ArcIMS (three days) <br /> Overview <br /> This two course introduces participants to ArcIMS—an integrated approach for creating and <br /> maintaining geography-based Web sites . ArcIMS offers powerful capabilities in an easy-to- <br /> use framework , changing the way users can access and interact with Internet mapping and <br /> GIS data . Class participants gain hands-on experience using ArcIMS to build , utilize, and <br /> customize Internet mapping applications . This course also empowers participants with a <br /> conceptual overview of how GIS mapping works on the Internet. <br /> Audience <br /> This course is for those who are new to ArcIMS and want to learn how to use ArcIMS to create <br /> and serve maps on the Internet . <br /> Goals <br /> • Author and design ArcIMS Viewers <br /> • Utilize client functionality <br /> • Introduce site administration <br /> • Understand ArcXML structure <br /> • Customize ArcIMS Viewers <br /> • Install ArcIMS and explore its architecture <br /> _ Topics covered <br /> • ArcIMS overview: What is ArcIMS ? ; Introducing multitier architecture; Creating an <br /> ArcIMS Viewer; Using ArcIMS Manager Applications <br /> • ArcIMS Author: Adding layers with Catalog ; Supported data formats; Setting layer <br /> properties ; Scale factors ; Labeling ; Rendering ; Geocoding properties; Stored queries; <br /> Saving map configuration files <br /> " 0 Designing ArcIMS Viewers : Creating ArcIMS Services ; Using ArcIMS Designer; ArcIMS <br /> Viewer output <br /> • ArcIMS Viewers : HTML Viewer; Java Standard Viewer; Java Custom Viewer; <br /> Arc Explorer—Java Edition ; Client tools <br /> • ArcIMS Administrator: ArcIMS Spatial Servers ; Virtual Servers ; Instances ; Refreshing <br /> ArcIMS Services ; Site properties and configuration ; Introducing ArcMap Server, <br /> _ Metadata Server, and Route Server <br /> • Collaborative tools : Adding layers : Changing layer properties ; Viewer configuration <br /> files; MapNotes and EditNotes ; Using Geography Network <br /> • Understanding ArcXML: What is XML? ; HTML vs .
