Locate, View, Map: Denver's Multi-Agency Integrated ArcIMS Intranet Solution
Track: Application Development
Author(s): Allan Glen

Seamless access to the City and County of Denver's GIS resources by Denver personnel is essential to inter-agency coordination and decision-making. Locate, View, Map (LVM) is Denver's ASP/ArcIMS solution for delivering integrated GIS information to the desktops of all Denver staff using a standard web browser (no browser plug-ins or applets required). More than 400 GIS layers from more than 55 agencies are available. This city-wide GIS solution allows for centralized maintenance, support, and access to multi-agency GIS information. The extensible component-based architecture is critical to the success of this integrated solution. To support individual agency requirements, the application provides a rich plug-in API, allowing rapid development of custom tools, mapping capabilities, and user interfaces. Application integration interfaces are also provided, allowing interaction with other enterprise applications and allowing non-GIS applications to leverage existing GIS capabilities. The architecture and the lessons learned in creating this intranet GIS solution will be addressed.
