2006 ArcWeb APIs

Posted by Dave Smith On 9/03/2006 10:08:00 AM 0 comments

The scrappad blog posts about a matrix of ArcWeb APIs that was recently published by ESRI - unfortunately the original link posted on scrappad is broken, but I was able to locate the document here:

http://support.esri.com/index.cfm?fa=knowledgebase.whitepapers.viewPaper&PID=20&MetaID=1183

The table lists functionalities, and if they are currently supported by SOAP, REST, OpenLS, J2ME, and JavaScript APIs. It is interesting to note that virtually everything is supported by SOAP, followed by JavaScript, with REST, OpenLS and J2ME bringing up the rear.

As things move forward, it will be interesting to see how these geospatial web services play with regard to BPEL, orchestration and other emerging SOA efforts.
