Getting Started With ArcIMS

Back

This book gets you started with ESRI ArcIMS, a scalable, extendable, standards-based software application for distributing maps and geographic information system data on the Internet.

The design of ArcIMS makes it easy for those new to the Internet to create and deploy GIS Web sites for use by any Web browser but avoids impeding those experienced in Web development who want to build highly customized, functionally rich GIS Internet applications.

Using this same design, Getting Started With ArcIMS offers tips for beginners and advanced users as it introduces ArcIMS and steps you through getting all the necessary components installed, configured, and running for your particular environment.
