1 EdUC 2017 July 8 th, 2017 Web GIS Administration: Tips and Tricks Geri Miller

2 Agenda Concerns Acknowledged User Management Content Management Monitoring Licensing and logins Sophistication of IT support required Where do I teach Web GIS? Others? Resources and Discussion Q&A throughout

3 Deployment Patterns Evolution Desktop GIS (standalone GIS) Server GIS (client-server GIS) Web GIS Distributed GIS

4 Web GIS Anatomy Desktop Web Device 1. Users & Apps 2. Portal portal 3. GIS Server 4. Basemaps & Utility Services Server Online Content and Services

5 Web GIS Components 1. Apps 2. Identity 3. Portal (geo-information model - Web Maps, Scenes, Layers) 4. Functionality (data management, visualization, analysis + your data + tools)

6 User Management

7 Identity Identity = Named User Access and manage your content across the platform Administrative benefits of identity Support for single sign-on systems at your school Students benefit from their personal identity Invitations and Custom Roles

8 Own Index The portal information model Named user - Own content or groups - Join groups Groups - Control access - Organize items Items - Files: PDF, MPK, XLS, etc. - Links: Services & applications Tags Users Own or join Index Groups - Index content Items Tags D

9 Groups are building blocks Help organize classes, projects and activities Access to resources Collaboration within the organization Collaboration between organizations D

10 Role privileges

11 Invite users Invite using file (Pre-establish recommended) Use enterprise logins Assign role D

12 Recommendation Use Enterprise Logins (Single Sign On) - Easier user management - Less instructions for students - Keep in mind: - Can t assign ArcGIS Pro or other license until user logs in D

13 Credit Budgeting Enabled/disabled for your organization Assign a number of credits to one or more users Can be changed at any time notifications if exceeded D

14 Tools to Manage Users GeoJobe Python API D

15 Content Management

16 Make content discoverable Groups Description and Tags Organization gallery Thumbnails

17 Tools to Manage Content AGO Assistant GeoJobe Python API Portal to Portal collaboration D

18 One or Multiple Portals Universities vary in size and need and must decide if a single portal implementation is sufficient In many cases, implementing multiple portals for different purposes is needed to maximize research and learning goals High-end researchers University Portal Enterprise GIS course Field team Department Portal Architecture and Planning

19 ArcGIS Enterprise Distributed Web GIS Portal to Portal Collaboration available at 10.5 Roadmap Portal to ArcGIS Online Collaboration available at

20 Licensing and Logins

21 ArcGIS Pro and Premium App Licensing Named User Single Use Concurrent Use

22 Managed in your portal Access controlled by Named User Organization Admin can: - Grant access by User, Group, Role - Control product level and extension - Re-assign access as needed - Know who is using what and when

23 Assign licenses Manage licenses for ArcGIS Pro and other apps Select users by name, role, our groups

24 Key Concepts When Managing Licenses Organization Management - Groups - Custom Roles D

25 Monitor

26 Organization Status and Management D

27 IT Support

28 ArcGIS Enterprise Web GIS Portals The Esri built code free frontend for creating the Web GIS experience in your organization. ArcGIS Online The difference between the two is in how you get started and where your Web GIS ultimately resides; and to a lesser, but growing, extent what your Web GIS can do. ArcGIS Enterprise

29 Additional Capabilities ArcGIS Enterprise GeoAnalytics Server Business Analyst Server Raster Analytics within the Image Server Using the spatiotemporal data store with GeoEvent Server Additionally, Insights for ArcGIS and Portal to Portal collaboration D

30 Which portal should I implement? Hosted (Cloud, SAAS) - Lower overall cost (faster start, less admin costs) - Elasticity - Continuous updates and improvements from Esri ArcGIS Online In your infrastructure (software) - Have no Internet/www connection - Have strict SLAs and governance - Not ready/interested in the cloud - Advanced GIS functionality ArcGIS Enterprise

31 ArcGIS Enterprise ArcGIS Enterprise ArcGIS Server Portal for ArcGIS ArcGIS Web Adaptor ArcGIS Data Store software components GIS Server Image Server GeoEvent Server GeoAnalytics Server Business Analyst Server Level 1 Level 2 named user levels Relational Tile Cache Spatiotemporal data store types server roles

32 Where do I teach ArcGIS Enterprise

33 Environments to teach ArcGIS Enterprise Cloud: - AWS - Azure - Etc. File-based VMs Teaching (ArcGIS Enterprise) in AWS Tuesday, July 11 th 1:30 2:45 pm Marriott Level 3, Carlsbad room U-Shaped table with AV VDI Others?

34 Modernized Curriculum

35 What have we been hearing APIs and SDKs Enterprise GIS Big Data Imagery Analytics Visualization Real Time 3D Data Collection & Mgmt Web Apps Desktop Apps Field Apps

36 GIS Education Modernization Straw Man curriculum 1. GIS Today 2. GIS Yesterday and Tomorrow 3. GIS as a Service 4. GIS in your Apps 5. GIS APIs and SDKs 6. GIS in your IT 7. GIS in the Field (beyond office) 8. Geodata Science 9. Mapping and Visualization 10. Spatial Analytics 11. Real Time GIS 12. Imagery and Remote Sensing 13. Distributed Computing 14. How to learn GIS

37 Modernized curriculum Shift in resources used and pedagogy Writing cookbook exercises = not sustainable The way you learn in a GIS class = the way you learn in the workplace New teaching methods?
