ArcGIS Server是一个用于构建集中管理、支持多用户的企业级GIS应用平台,其最大特点在于提供基于网络的高级GIS服务。介绍了ArcGIS Server的基本特征以及体系结构,阐述了ArcGIS Server9.2的新特性,并着重讨论了ArcGIS Server开发框架的内部机制以及使用该框架进行WebGIS应用开发的方式。最后通过城市公众地理信息服务系统开发实例展示了利用该框架定制WebGIS应用的可行性。
ArcGIS Server is a platform for constructing centralized management, multi-users supporting enterprise-level GIS applications. It is mostly characterized by providing Internet-based high level GIS service. The paper describes the basic characteristics and architecture of ArcGIS Server and the new functionality of ArcGIS Server 9.2 version, and explores the interior mechanism of ArcGIS Server application development framework and the modes of developing WebGIS application using this ADF. The feasibility of using this framework to tailor-make WebGIS application is demonstrated by the development of an urban public geographic information system.
