- Learn how to design, build, and run high performance and interactive applications with the help of ArcGIS
- Incorporate ArcGIS for Server services to allow end users to visualize, query, and edit GIS data using the ArcGIS JavaScript APIs
- Step-by-step tutorial that teaches you how to design and customize a GIS web application from scratch
Who This Book Is For
If you are a GIS user or a web programmer, this book is for you. This book is also intended for all those who have basic web development knowledge with no prior experience of ArcGIS and are keen on venturing into the world of ArcGIS technology. The book will equip you with the skills to comfortably start your own ArcGIS web development project.
What You Will Learn
- Script essential ArcGIS JavaScript code to consume with ArcGIS services
- Edit ArcGIS services by adding new records, update existing ones and upload attachments
- Consume GIS services from multiple cross-platform endpoints that include mobile and tablet for field users
- Query ArcGIS services with related data and display the information on your website
- Communicate with the services to query, retrieve, and display the results
- Use the ArcGIS JavaScript API to communicate with ArcGIS Online as a backend database
- Test your website on mobile devices
In Detail
ArcGIS allows users to create rich maps and applications that interact with services hosted on ArcGIS for Server and ArcGIS Online. This book will help you to understand the ArcGIS JavaScript API in a fun way while building a real-life project.
This book revolves around a fictional project called Bestaurants. The journey starts with a description of the project requirements before moving on to designing and sketching an interface of what the website will look like. Then, gradually with each chapter, you will add a single functionality until the full ArcGIS application is completed.
By the end of this book, you will have built an entire ArcGIS web application from scratch. An additional bonus appendix is included on how to build ArcGIS applications with ArcGIS Online–a new and extremely useful service offered by Esri.
