IT Department Support
• Publish Services
• Statewide GIS projects• Server hardware/software• GIS software installation• License manager administration• Scripting/coding• Custom application development
Challenge #1: Building Custom Tools
• Can’t build or customize map applications• CSS, HTML, JavaScript• No access to public web servers
• Utilize Geoprocessing Services• Build out tools using Python in ArcGIS Desktop• Publish Geoprocessing Services• Incorporate services into ArcGIS Online Web AppBuilder
• Geoprocessing Widget
Python Coding in ArcGIS Desktop
Creating Tools in ArcGIS Desktop
Publishing Tools as Geoprocessing Services
Geoprocessing Widget (Web AppBuilder for ArcGIS Online)
Configure the service input & outputs in the widget
• Non-spatial databases• Integrated into MDOT business
• Store spatial data in a GIS and provide a link to legacy application• ArcGIS Online web map pop-up configuration
• URL Parameters• Dynamically created based on a database field value• https://miloginworker.michigan.gov/mdot-waps6/cps/indvPermitView.htm?applId=36297:I&currApplIdOnScreen=36297
Challenge #2: Legacy Applications
• Non-spatial databases• Integrated into MDOT business
• Store spatial data in a GIS and provide a link to legacy application• ArcGIS Online web map pop-up configuration
• URL Parameters• Dynamically created based on a database field value• https://miloginworker.michigan.gov/mdot-waps6/cps/indvPermitView.htm?applId={PermitNumber}:I&currApplIdOnScreen={PermitNumber}
Challenge #2: Legacy Applications
Challenge #3: Limited Resources
• Small staff supporting department-wide solutions• Increase in popularity of having data at your fingertips
• If the idea is big enough, contract out services• Transportation Asset Management System (TAMS)
• Department-wide maintenance work order system• GIS foundation (Roads & Highways)• 3 vendor solution
