Paper
Web-Based Database Application with ArcIMS
Track: System Implementation for GIS
Author(s): Suha Kilic, Yavuz Atila

The Pebble Beach Community Services District's new Web-based information systems allow users with different needs and backgrounds to access property/infrastructure data and GIS maps simultaneously on the same page through an intuitive and unique front-end. The new technology replaced the previous Access database and ArcGIS combination which was cumbersome, less flexible, and costly to update and maintain. After an intensive analysis of cutting-edge technologies, it was decided to move to Microsoft SQL server environment with MS Internet Information Server 6.0 by using .NET framework; and use ArcIMS for the Web platform instead of ArcGIS. The new system combined the data on various functions in one intranet site giving the ability to find information with a fast, efficient and user-friendly interface. In addition, the new system does not require client-end maintenance, and staff can access the latest updated information and changes on the server by simply using their favored Internet browser.
