This document discusses how NM Group uses geospatial technology and mapping to provide solutions for infrastructure projects. It outlines their process of taking infrastructure data from proprietary formats and converting it into mapbooks, GIS layers, reports and web services using ArcGIS tools. This streamlines their workflow compared to other software, allowing them to produce maps, reports and deliverables for infrastructure corridors more quickly and with less manual effort and errors. The mapping solutions provide spatial context and relationships that spreadsheets alone cannot, and make the data more accessible and usable for clients.
This document summarizes Glasgow City Council's process for creating simple web mapping applications in ArcGIS Online for non-GIS users. Key steps included: publishing services from ArcMap to ArcGIS for Server; adding services to AGOL and organizing in folders; using Web AppBuilder templates to create consistent applications; and configuring pop-ups, basemaps, and address lookup. This approach allowed over 20 internal applications and public-facing maps to be developed quickly without requiring developer skills.
This document discusses integrating web GIS applications with monitoring tools for analysis and reporting. It provides an overview of GIS applications and web GIS, demonstrates a web GIS map application, and discusses monitoring the availability, performance, and usage of GIS services. The architecture of monitoring tools is explained, including data collection from GIS servers, windows performance counters, and log files. Examples of dashboard reports on summary data, uptime, usage, and performance from the monitoring tools are also shown.
HERE Reality Lens gives enterprise customers access to HERE's Reality Capture data to gather high accuracy geospatial data on a global scale. The Reality Capture data comes from hundreds of HERE True vehicles and is used to generate automotive-grade maps. Reality Lens provides intuitive access to this 3D data through tools like an ArcGIS Desktop add-in and Reality Lens widget for ArcGIS WebApp Builder. This can help industries like transportation, utilities, telecommunications, and public sectors with applications such as asset management, construction, emergency response, and more.
SEPA needs flood event data for flood risk mapping, assessments, and management. The document describes a trial of using ESRI Collector App and ArcGIS Online to capture flood event data (FEDCAP), finding it improved data quality and reduced collection/processing time compared to traditional methods. The winter trial period saw many flood events across Scotland and successful testing of FEDCAP. The methodology, trial results, and future improvements are discussed. Feedback was positive about FEDCAP being a simple, flexible, and secure way to effectively capture flood data.
The document summarizes a project conducted by Edinburgh Council to survey dropped kerbs using ESRI's Collector application. The survey gathered data on dropped kerbs, raised tables, guardrails, and residential crossovers across the city. While the Collector worked well for gathering the data, some issues arose around labeling, syncing large amounts of data, and downloading data with geometry errors. The collected data will now be added to the Roads Services asset management system and used to prioritize accessibility improvements through smaller streetworks projects and larger capital renewal schemes.
The document discusses the Future Maritime Geospatial Capability (FMGC) project. [1] The FMGC aims to demonstrate how geospatial technologies can provide situational awareness for maritime activities. [2] It presents an architecture built on Esri software like ArcGIS Server and custom web applications to ingest and analyze maritime data sources. [3] Use cases like monitoring vessel traffic in real-time and chokepoint analysis are demonstrated.
Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS is a tool for building configurable web apps without coding. It has over 40 widgets and allows creating 2D and 3D web maps. Web AppBuilder can be used within ArcGIS Online or Portal or with the separate developer edition. Examples of Web AppBuilder apps are publicly shared and filterable online. A demo was given of a Tour o' the Borders Cycle Challenge app built with Web AppBuilder to provide information to different user groups. Resources for learning more about Web AppBuilder include documentation, video tutorials, forums and training courses.
This document discusses Network Rail's use of GIS systems to evaluate and manage their earthworks assets without needing physical inspections. It details how they used aerial imagery, LiDAR data, and automated extraction of slope and geometry information from over 800,000 cross-sections to analyze 150,000 sites that had never been inspected before. This reduced the number of never-inspected sites from 36,000 to under 6,000 and saved an estimated £1.2 million by avoiding manual inspections. The methodology developed is now being applied nationally to verify all of Network Rail's earthworks assets and gain a complete picture of their geometry for the first time.
The document summarizes a technical workshop on the ArcGIS platform and web GIS. It outlines the evolution of GIS technology towards more integrated software and services. It then reviews the key components of the ArcGIS platform, including ArcGIS Desktop, ArcGIS Online, Portal for ArcGIS, and ArcGIS Server. It demonstrates how GIS data and resources can be centralized in a portal and accessed through web apps by users on desktops, web, and mobile devices. The workshop concludes with advice on implementing web GIS within an organization.
