<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>ArcGIS Server 9.3 is the best thing, as far as I’m
concerned, well…since AGS 9.2. However, a couple of the out-of-the-box
functions : 1) the window.status coordinate display and 2) measuring tool
coordinate result would display/return coordinates in the coordinate system of
the Primary Map Resource, which is reasonable and in many cases adequate. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>But in the interests of displaying maps with the highest
accuracy our underlying map resources are based on the FDGL Albers system,
which displays coordinates in a meter system, which translates to user confusing
results in the web app.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Working closely, mostly watching, with a very knowledgeable
ESRI employee recently we found, what I think is, a remarkable and very
accurate solution that I’d like to share with everyone. I have attached the
code/solution (.Net) in plain text, a zip file and a zip file incognito, .ziz,
to fool this pesky firewalls that like to bounce useful email attachments. In
the cases of .js and .vb pages I included the entire functions, but only parts
were changed.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Step 1: Create a Geometry Service on your GIS Server.
This is a new service type for v9.3 that provides some geometry-related
functionality (buffer, project, etc.). You can find more information and
instructions for starting the Geometry Service here:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><a
href="http://webhelp.esri.com/arcgisserver/9.3/dotNet/index.htm#geometry_service.htm">http://webhelp.esri.com/arcgisserver/9.3/dotNet/index.htm#geometry_service.htm</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Step 2: Add a Web reference for the Geometry Service in
your Web Mapping Application.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> Step A: Right-click the
Web site name in the Visual Studio Solution Explorer window and choose
"Add Web Reference" from the context menu.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> Step B: In the URL text
box of the "Add Web Reference" dialog, enter a URL like the
following, replacing <server_name> with the name of your GIS Server:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> <a
href="http://%3cserver_name%3e/arcgis/services/Geometry/GeometryServer?wsdl">http://<server_name>/arcgis/services/Geometry/GeometryServer?wsdl</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> Step C: In the "Web
Reference Name" text box of the dialog, enter "GeometryService".
This is the name you will use in your code to reference the service.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText> Step D: Click "Add
Reference" to add the reference to your project.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Step 3: Update the code in your default.aspx,
default.aspx.vb, display_measure.js, Measure.ascx.vb and WebMapApp.js. See
comments in code. Below are some highlights that may need attention:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Default.aspx – Contains update panel and hidden fields<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Default.aspx.vb – Set spatial reference in/out<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Display_measure.js – Set precision (decimal places for coordinate
measure tool)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Measure.ascx.vb – Prevents rounding (set by
display_measure.js)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>WebMapApp.js – Set precision (decimal places for
window.status)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Hope someone else finds this as useful as I have.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>And now for the disclaimer: I’m not a programmer: I just
play one at work.<o:p></o:p></p>
