A Dynamic and Valuable Duo – ArcGIS and FME Christian Dahmen Consultant, con terra GmbH

Agenda

!  Introduction !  FME and Web Services !  ArcGIS Online and FME !  Ready to use Apps

con terra Facts

!  Founded in 1993 !  Spin-off of the University of Muenster, Institute

for Geoinformatics !  Part of the Esri Deutschland Group !  110 employees !  Development and design of company-wide GIS

infrastructures & System Integrator !  Platinum Partner of Safe Software

FME and Web Services

!  FME Desktop and FME Server can consume a various number of services !  OGC´s Web Feature Service !  OGC´s Web Map Service

!  FME Server can act as any arbitrary service !  WxS approach

!  In this presentation: Using ArcGIS Online Services within FME Desktop and FME Server

ArcGIS Platform and FME

!  FME Extension and Data Interoperability Extension (ArcGIS for Desktop and Server)

!  Using ArcGIS Online Services in FME

ArcGIS Platform and FME

!  FME extends !  ArcGIS for Desktop through Data Interoperability

Extension (or FME Esri Edition) with its data translation and transformation capabilities

!  ArcGIS for Server through Data Interoperability Extension for Server !  publish models with integrated FME functionality

ArcGIS Platform and FME

!  Make use of ArcGIS Online functionality in FME through !  Basemaps in FME Data Inspector !  ArcGIS Online Feature Service Reader and Writer !  Custom Transformers using any ArcGIS Online

Service

ArcGIS Online

!  Esri’s mapping platform for organizations !  Share and collaborate !  Key features

!  Ready-to-use maps and apps !  Run spatial and location analytics !  Tools for developers

!  www.arcgis.com !  developers.arcgis.com

ArcGIS Online Services

!  ArcGIS Online provides a huge number of Services for !  Mapping, locations, data management, spatial

analysis !  Create and host your own service (Feature

Service) !  Create, Delete, Query,

Update, Sync, and Uploads

Samples

!  Geocoding and Place Search !  Convert addresses to and from geographic

coordinates !  Search for places within a region and get places

matching your search !  Directions and Routing

!  Generate routes between any number of places !  Calculate areas accessible in a given amount of

time

Samples

!  Store and query geographic data !  Feature services allow you to create custom REST

endpoints to store and query geographic data (points, lines and polygons)

!  And many, many more…

ArcGIS Online Services

!  All services are accessible through the ArcGIS REST API !  resources.arcgis.com/en/help/arcgis-rest-api

!  You can invoke the ArcGIS REST API through any language that can make HTTP requests (including FME)

!  Services require an ArcGIS Online Account !  Some services run on a credit-based model

ArcGIS Online Services

!  Working with ArcGIS REST API means !  Decide which requests to make !  Structure the requests correctly !  Anticipate and use the responses

ArcGIS Online Services

!  Generate token (OAuth 2.0 credentials) !  Request the service (e.g. routing service)

!  Parameters !  Token !  Synchronous / asynchronous

!  Process the results

How can ArcGIS Online Services

be used in FME?

#1 Basemaps

!  FME Data Inspector !  Background Maps

#2 ArcGIS Online Feature Service Reader/ Writer

!  ArcGIS Online Feature Service Reader and Writer !  Reader

!  Read data from any ArcGIS Online Feature Service !  Writer (new in FME 2014 SP 1)

!  Write any data (source format does not matter) to ArcGIS Online Feature Services

!  Update Feature Services (including truncate layers)

#2 ArcGIS Online Feature Service Reader/ Writer

#3 Custom Transformers

Create your own Custom Transformer

!  Use case: How to enable Reverse Geocoding? !  Creating a Custom Transformer (general steps)

!  Process Input !  Receive ArcGIS Online user credentials !  Generate token (ArcGIS Online Authentication) !  Prepare request !  Send request (reverse geocoding) !  Process results

Ready to use apps

ArcGIS, FME and map.apps

!  Seamless web app integration !  Make the most out of FME Server by integrating

FME functionality through a RESTful interface !  Build user focused apps using data translation

and transformation capabilities !  Enrich data through ArcGIS Online Services and

basemaps

Run ArcGIS Online Services
