NRInfo Portal = IRMA User Interface

Functional Goals• Spatial Searching across NRInfo Portal• Spatially-enable References and visualize locations
NPS Natural Resource & GIS ProgramsInventory and Monitoring Program
RIMC – April 2010Mash-Up “Architecture”

Technical Challenges• ASP.NET MVC, ASPX/ASCX
– NRInfo custom MVC structure– Nested ASCX controls on ASPX pages– Data Transformation:
• SqlGeography GML .Net JSON .Net GeoJSON
• Ambition vs. Reality:– Common API and controls– Sacrificing elegance and logic for performance

Integration and Extensibility• NPMaps and IMR Integration:
– OpenLayers, ExtJS GUI, GeoExt core data model – Service-based content
• REST and SOAP• ESRI and Bing services
• Extensibility:– REST vs. GeoJSON vs. GML– Spatial data typing: SqlGeometry vs. SqlGeography– ArcGIS 10: REST-based editing; API enhancements;
