Did you know that you can integrate your ArcGIS with your other enterprise systems to enhance the reach of your GIS? Integrated ArcGIS solutions provide many benefits including enriching user experiences, improving asset management and reducing development times. The configurable frameworks offered by Geocortex provide countless options for custom integrations that can be used to generate sophisticated, complete solutions.
When it comes to building integrations for ArcGIS and Geocortex, the possibilities are widespread. With options to use URL parameters to launch external applications directly in your GIS applications, to capabilities for database linking and developing custom interfaces using SDKs, there are many ways that you can integrate your systems to boost the capabilities of your GIS.
Geocortex partnered with DirectionsMag to present a webinar highlighting the benefits of integrating ArcGIS with other enterprise systems. The webinar featured Geocortex customer Chris Jacob, GIS Manager for the City of Waterloo, who demonstrated how his team is integrating Geocortex with IBM Maximo to augment their GIS and improve experiences for both developers and end-users.
In the webinar, Chris demonstrates how a loosely coupled integration between Geocortex and Maximo increased data visibility and ease-of-access in both their GIS and enterprise asset management system. Further, adding custom integration points between Geocortex and Maximo allows the City of Waterloo to simplify GIS development and build applications that are easy to use and simple to manage.
Integrations between ArcGIS and Maximo can provide further capabilities to dynamically create Maximo work orders and service requests directly in ArcGIS applications. The ability to dynamically pass information between ArcGIS and Maximo, and options for users to build custom activities, simplifies the use of both the GIS and asset management data, creating new possibilities for how asset management is handled at the organization. Integrating ArcGIS with Maximo, presents a perfect solution for simplifying work order creation, better managing your assets and reducing duplicate data entry.
Another common integration highlighted in the webinar is between ArcGIS and Laserfiche. Integrating ArcGIS with Laserfiche (or other document management systems) allows users to use custom URLs to link documents directly with their GIS applications. Integrating ArcGIS with document management systems simplifies the end-user experience and reduces user training requirements.
