Esri: Injecting new meaning into web GIS

In recent years it and space technology development, cloud computing, big data, real-time information, LBS, unmanned aerial vehicles, tilt photography and other new technologies emerging, Internet infrastructure construction achievements, broadband become a national strategic public infrastructure.

GIS (Geographic information System) as an important tool for spatial information analysis and processing. Its application needs are also changing dramatically.

Online content, convenient collaboration, anytime, anywhere access to multiple devices, popular applications, etc., has become a new trend of GIS applications, new trends.

The integration of GIS with the latest mainstream it architectures and technologies has spawned a new generation of web GIS. Extensive creation, sharing, and collaboration of Web service with spatial data and its processing, analysis and presentation as the core content. and the ability to easily access and interact with anyone, anytime, anywhere, on any device, constitutes a key feature of the next generation of Web GIS. "Next-generation Web GIS" makes GIS a reality for all the people in the organization. In concert with this, ESRI's flagship product, ArcGIS, has evolved and transformed over the years by a traditional GIS software that evolves and sublimated into a complete "next-generation Web GIS" platform that fully supports its construction model.

What is the value of the application model of Web GIS to the organization? "Overall," said Sha Zhiyou, technical director of ESRI China, in an interview. Through the application pattern of Web GIS, organizations can obtain GIS services more easily and at lower cost.

”

This, Sha Zhiyou continues, explains that Web GIS provides powerful online content management capabilities. Not only can carry a variety of GIS content. including maps, imagery, three-dimensional and different types of services, even integrated enterprise data, tabular data, social media data and new sensor network collection of data, but also added to the big data support, to achieve a variety of information online integration and use.

WEB GIS has innovated the cooperative working mode. Break down the barriers to collaboration between departments while keeping existing business models intact. Moving from departmental collaboration to a new type of organizational collaboration centered on Web GIS makes collaboration easier.

WEB GIS has created a new type of shared communication mechanism. All of the Organization's people, and even the public, can access and use a variety of devices anytime, anywhere. For users, GIS application is more simple and convenient.

WEB GIS has also changed the way GIS professionals work to make them more efficient. No longer confined to small areas. Instead, you can share data, maps, models, layers, and so on to many other people, and it's easy to get content from others on the web, reducing the workload of data collections. greatly improve the efficiency.

GIS professionals. No longer is "a man in the fight". Instead, "a group is fighting together".

In short, the connection properties of WEB GIS use maps and geographic information to connect everyone in an organization to make information flow more rapidly.

It is understood that at the 12th session of the ESRI China User Conference, to be held at the Beijing International Convention Center in September 4 and 5th, there will be an in-depth discussion on the "Next Generation Web GIS" Application model, as well as the software-as-a-service cloud model that ArcGIS provides to support the application model, the software local deployment model, Introduction to three modes of construction in mixed mode.
