Thanks Hugo a very useful link - I'll read every page.
Has anyone used PostgreSQL as the database backend on ArcIMS. I see PostgreSQL is unsupported with ArcSDE with is a real pity IMO. It would be nice to use CFMX + ArcSDE + ArcIMS + PostgreSQL Mike ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Hugo Ahlenius" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Tue, 30 Nov 2004 09:37:37 +0100 Mike, Check out the ColdFusion + ArcIMS blog for more information: http://www.mariposa.com.au/arcims/ Cheers, Hugo (we are using CFMX + ArcSDE + ArcIMS ) -- Hugo Ahlenius ------------------------------------------------------------- Hugo Ahlenius E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Project Officer Phone: +46 8 230460 UNEP GRID-Arendal Fax: +46 8 230441 Stockholm Office Mobile: +46 733 467111 WWW: http://www.grida.no ------------------------------------------------------------- | -----Original Message----- | From: Office [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | Sent: Tuesday, November 30, 2004 06:35 | To: CF-Talk | Subject: Re: PostgreSQL database size | | My understanding is (don't have any of these ESRI goodies | yet) that an xml call is made to arcIMS giving extant and layers etc. | | The image returned can then be inserted as a static image on | any web page. | | The CMS has been designed to store a reference to extants and | layers.
