Linking ArcIMS With an Internet File System Track: Application Development Author(s): Steven Wong, SANDRA AGUILAR, HONGLI LUO Our approach offers an alternative way for dynamic web-based mapping. An Internet file system can be accessible via web browsers in which users can upload, download, view, and execute files. Our system will allow users select shape files from the web interface of the Internet file system for mapping using the ArcIMS services. The integration of the ArcIMS with the Internet file system provides substantial benefits to GIS users because the application takes advantage of the powerful search, versioning, security, backup, and other features offered by the Internet file system and its underlined enterprise database management system (DBMS). On the other hand, the value of the Internet file system and the associated DBMS is enhanced by the ArcIMS mapping capabilities.
