  1. GIS in the Coming Decade Clint Brown ESRIFebruary 2001

  2. State of GIS • Trends & User Requirements • ESRI Plans • ArcGIS • ArcIMS • Futures

  3. Trends

  4. Scalable DBMS's Files DBMS • DBMS • Scalable • Extended types • Affordable Information management migrating from files to DBMS

  5. Platforms • Distributed • Networked • Interoperable New clients Network • Loosely Coupled Networks • Server-based • Range of client types Desktop

  6. Two Server Based Platforms • Sun ONE/Java/UNIX Architecture • Open • EJB • Write once, run everywhere • Microsoft .NET Architecture • Advanced Development Environment • Strong Integration • Both support all client types

  7. Platform Support Clients Services Internet Server Technology Wireless Browser (HTML) GIS Spatial Server XML Java ArcIMS Services ArcGIS Services ArcGIS Desktops XML used for communication

  8. Mobile Computing Integration of Wireless Technologies • Lightweight Hardware • GPS • Telecommunications The Mobile Society Will Take GIS With It

  9. GIS Trends

  10. All data Documented Metadata Repositories Catalog Services Metadata For GIS Metadata will drive data sharing ArcCatalog Search, View, And Edit on the Internet XML Standard Based on FGDC/ISO Standards

  11. ArcGIS CAD Integration Smart CAD Editing Direct View Standard Formats DWG DXF DGN CAD Drawings Integrated Drawing Model (Parametric Geometry)

  12. ArcGIS Image Integration Raster Processing Tools • Dynamic • Projection • Transformation Military Formats Geo Database MR SID 30+ Formats TIF/GIF Many Others Single Multi Band Image Catalogs GeoTiff Grids Unified Raster Model (Image Pyramid)

  13. Survey Integration

  14. Standards in GIS • IT-based • DBMS & SQL • XML • Computing Platforms • Development Languages • GIS • Metadata • Web • Open Data Use • Simple feature API’s

  15. StandardGIS Data Models • Data Models • Metadata • Map Templates and Symbology . . . Provide Easier, Faster, and Standardized Application Development

  16. Data Modeling Sampling Error and Accuracy GeostatisticalAnalysis Spatial Analysis Data Exploration Visual Modeling Visualization Analysis and ModelingGeographic Information Science

  17. GIS User Requirements

  18. 1. Smart, interactive, functional Map • 2. A set of tools and procedures • A language to perform tasks DBMS Data Files 3. A well-managed system of information Three views of GIS

  19. Advanced Geometry • Points, Lines, Polygons, and Surfaces • Single and Multi-part Features • Flexible coordinates • XY • XYZ • XYZM • True curves • Continuous coverage (not tiled)

  20. Topology in GIS • Topology for • Shared geometry • One set of lines, many sets of features • Networks • Relationships • Important to represent “systems” of features • Land records, Census, Networks …

  21. GIS Data Models Also Need • Tables of Attributes • Rasters (Grids and geo-referenced images) • Tins

  22. ESRI Work Based on Trends, Standards, and User Requirements

  23. Product Vision • Maintain and Grow Existing Products • Single Scaleable Architecture • Common Data Model • Multiple Complementary Products • Base on Industry Standards • IT Compliance • Migration Via Incremental Releases

  24. ArcView 3.2a ArcView 8.1 ArcView 3.2 ArcViewDual Platform Strategy • Continue Support ArcView 3.3 ArcView 8.2 • Evolve Into New Architecture Desktop GIS

  25. ArcView 3.3 • User conference release • Software Improvements • Enhancements • New maps and data • DBMS Support • More …
