Geocortex Essentials Manager
Whether you are delivering a simple public application, multiple purpose-specific intranet applications, or feature-rich web-GIS, Manager gives administrators and developers the tools needed to make sites that are the right fit for your organization. Everything that can be configured in Geocortex Essentials (notwithstanding custom developer extensions) can be done through the Manager browser-based interface.
Management
Manager
Manager brings all of the management aspects of creating applications to one-central location. Use it to create websites that are based on our XML configuration model and leverage the Viewer Template Engine from an easy to use, wizard style application. Rather than start from scratch, the Web Manager makes it easier to create custom web sites. Manager also provides the capability to manage multiple sites, whereby you can create, edit and delete sites through one central point.
XML-based Configuration
Define application settings outside of the source code. Since configuration is stored in XML files, they can be shared between installations and easily migrated between development, test, and production environments. The XML configuration is technology agnostic and it is exposed through REST-based web services to serve both web-based and mobile clients.
Viewer Template Engine (VTE)
VTE introduces a way of managing viewers and specifically the functional capabilities outside of the viewer itself. You can build viewers as reusable templates that plug into the VTE, giving you the flexibility of building and maintaining the functionality of viewers without being impacted by the inner-workings of the viewer (which change over time). This allows you to future-proof your investment in viewer capabilities that you have worked hard to develop.
