Visual tools for Software Development in GIS applications
Journal Title: Revista Romana de Interactiune Om-Calculator - Year 2016, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper aims to showcase a set of features which enables users to develop custom processing models using a specific interface for the workflow. The component presented in this paper, part of the ArcGIS software suite is called ModelBuilder and allows a visual description of the processing flow, which enables users who do not have extensive programming knowledge to define custom processing models. The tool is also addressed for experienced programmers by having the ability to include scripts within the models and setting them parameters for integration with the workflow. This way, the models can be run either as stand-alone tools, on demand using specific interaction routines - GIS Add-ins, or can be embedded in WebGIS applications by exporting them as geoprocessing services and run through ArcGIS Server or through Cloud services provided by ESRI (the company that develops ArcGIS).
