Today Oakland County launched Golf and Trails, or GAT, their first ArcGIS Server Web Application based on the JavaScript API. Over the past 2 years I, as a consultant via Technology Aces, have been part of a team of developers working on a very large GIS web application. So large and so complex that its first public appearance is as the underlying framework that powers GAT. I am happy to say that one of my projects with Oakland County finally released to the public, even if it is a “light” version. 

As part of developing a project I created a Cross-Domain Proxy to consume the payment service. My Cross-Domain Proxy, Payment.asmx, is exposed via the JavaScript end point. Any ASP.NET web service can open the JavaScript endpoint by uncommenting line #7 in the asmx file.   Once the ScriptService line is uncommented you can test that your service is exposing the JavaScript endpoint by calling a URL similar to: 1: ~/WebService.asmx/JS .csharpcode, .csharpcode pre { font-size: small; color: black; font-family: consolas, "Courier New", courier, monospace; background-color: #ffffff; /*white-space:...

I did a search the other day for the a new blog post I saw fly by on Twitter about the top 100 twitter applications and ended up re-reading a post from RRW about the top 10 twitter applications.  Now the post is from 2007, so I am sure that the top 10 has changed quite a bit. What I took away from the article was a note about Twitter Atlas. What’s it missing? The ability to get only your Twitter group’s tweets shown on the map. First thought: really, that’s so silly there has to be a fun little mashup for that…and I on went to check out the top 100. Once there I pulled...

My good friend Jamey’s first blog post is about helping himself. Well…I just did the same on a post about using the ESRI JavaScript API to zoom to a polygon so I thought it best to provide him with a ping back…

In jQuery DOM manipulation is incredibly easy: $("#dealer-toggle").toggle(); .csharpcode, .csharpcode pre { font-size: small; color: black; font-family: consolas, "Courier New", courier, monospace; background-color: #ffffff; /*white-space: pre;*/ } .csharpcode pre { margin: 0em; } .csharpcode .rem { color: #008000; } .csharpcode .kwrd { color: #0000ff; } .csharpcode .str { color: #006080; } .csharpcode .op { color: #0000c0; } .csharpcode .preproc { color: #cc6633; } .csharpcode .asp { background-color: #ffff00; } .csharpcode .html { color: #800000; } .csharpcode .attr { color: #ff0000;...

After publishing a service if you make changes to the .MXD you need to clear the REST cache. There are a few ways to clear the REST cache: Restart IIS – Super Easy From the ArcGIS 9.3 REST admin page The Admin page is located at: http://xxxxxxxxxx/ArcGIS/rest/admin/ Until you restart IIS the updates to the MXD will not be reflected in the REST service endpoint.
