Authors: pankaj bobde

Customer use Oracle Forms builder application to manage the data. They often needs to depend on the textual information entered by data operators and did not have any visual re-presentation of GIS locations. We have integrated Oracle Forms with ESRI GIS by providing the ArcGIS Javascript based web application. This application is called via Oracle Forms to validate their textual data against to Geographic data and represented in GIS window for complementing human decision making process. Application was well received by end users and have greatly reduced the data errors. Phase II of this integration will have two way synchronisation using webservices between GIS & Oracle Forms. In this integration we have used ESRI ArcGIS java script online API's. Since we have used online API, we got an advantage of not installing any software and all future updates would be directly available to end users.
