Re: [udig-devel] uDig and ArcGIS Server 9.2

I forgot to say, most functionality exposed by ArcGIS Server can be consumed with SOAP web services, so in this case you don't need ArcObjects on your client. Not sure about Military and MOLE, though.

Hello Carsten,

I have quite a bit of experience with ArcGIS Server 9.2. What you are trying to accomplish sounds quite hard, specially on the symbology side of things (I'm not even sure AGS 9.2 supports MOLE).

On the other hand, if you want to display geoprocessing results from uDIG via WMS or WFS I think this combination is quite capable, but there is an integration path that needs to be traveled. uDIG from what I can understand could be a Web Services thick client, and most processing (geographic or not) could be done on the server. If I am not mistaken some translation needs to be done in order to display the results if these are geographic, although there might be several viable options. I am interested in investigating this also, so make sure you keep us informed.

Hi,

in a project i'm forced to use the ESRI ArcGIS Server 9.2. The customer
does not want to install the GIS-Client on the Client-Workstation, so we
don't use ArcView but the new ERSI Web-Client which comes with the
ArcGIS Server 9.2.

We have another application which is started via Java WebStart. This
Java Application and the GIS Client need to "talk" with each other in
both directions (on the client workstation). So this is not really nice
if you have a Web-Client ;-).

Now i come to my question:

Is it possible to use uDig with the new ArcGIS Server 9.2?

I would like to use uDig instead of the ESRI Web-Client and i can start
uDig via web-start.

Probably it won't suffice to use the wms and wfs service. We need to use
some ESRI extensions like "MOLE" (military layer) and a tracking
module. These extensions are provided on the server and i probably need
some ArcObjects code to access them.

Does someone has some experience on this topic?

Cheers
Carsten
