Accela GIS Installation Guide1: Preparation 7

Figure 1: Accela GIS Deployment Topology

Installing Accela GISThe following provides a high level sequence of activities to follow when you perform an Accela GIS installation. Verify that the tasks listed below are complete before you install Accela GIS.

Install Accela GIS as follows:

1. Review Environment Requirements. Before you install or upgrade to a new version of Accela GIS, review the hardware and software requirements of your deployment topology (see Preparing Your Environment on page 8).

2. Contact Accela CRC. Contact Accela Customer Resource Center to obtain the installation files and supporting product documentation. You need to access one of Accela’s authorized FTP sites to transfer the installation files to your target system before proceeding.

3. Obtain Accela Software License Key. Obtain an Accela software license key for the current release. Contact Accela Customer Resource Center at 1-888-722-2352 ext. 5. Office hours are Monday–Friday 4:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Pacific Time.

4. Obtain Administrative Permissions. Ensure that you have administrative permissions for the machine where you plan to install the Accela GIS server.

5. Install ESRI ArcGIS Server. If you plan to integrate Accela GIS with an ESRI ArcGIS server map service, verify that you have installed the ESRI ArcGIS server on your network and created a map service to integrate with Accela GIS. For more information on how to create a map service, visit ArcGIS Resource Center at http://resources.arcgis.com/. If you plan to use Microsoft Bing Maps as a map provider, you do not need to create a map service.

Preparing Your EnvironmentContact Accela Customer Resource Center for recommended host resource requirements. Contact Accela Customer Resource Center at 1-888-722-2352 ext. 5. Office hours are Monday–Friday 4:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Pacific Time. You can also contact Accela Customer Resource Center through the website at http://www.accela.com/services/support-login.

Hardware and Software RequirementsFor information about the hardware and software requirements for Accela GIS, see the “Supported Environments” chapter in the corresponding Accela Automation Release Notes.

Registering ASP.NET Applications with Internet Information ServicesYou do not need to complete any manual Internet Information Services (IIS) configuration to set up Accela GIS. The Accela GIS installer completes the necessary IIS configuration. If you enable IIS on the Accela GIS server before you install the .NET Framework, the setup process for the .NET Framework automatically registers ASP.NET applications with IIS. However, if you install .NET Framework before you enable IIS, you need to use the aspnet_regiis.exe tool to complete the registration process. For more information, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/k6h9cz8h(v=VS.100).aspx and http://www.devx.com/vb2themax/Tip/18849.

Integrating Accela GIS with Other Accela ProductsAccela GIS works with the same version of Accela Automation, Accela Citizen Access, and Accela Mobile Office. To use Accela GIS offline mapping functionality, you must install and license the ArcGIS Engine software on each Accela Mobile Office workstation.

Note: If you install Accela GIS on Windows Server 2008 R2 and on Windows Server 2012 or 2012 R2, you must add required roles, role services, and features on the server. For information about minimum required roles, role services, and features, see Appendix A: Windows Server 2008 R2 Configuration on page 23 and Appendix B: Windows Server 2012 or 2012 R2 Configuration on page 25.

CHAPTER 3:

MIGRATION

Accela provides two GIS applications: Accela GIS Classic and Accela GIS. You can choose one of these Accela GIS applications to install, configure, and use in your Accela Automation environment.

If your agency currently uses Accela GIS Classic, you can migrate to Accela GIS. Complete the migration steps described in this chapter to migrate your agency’s existing GIS data from Accela GIS Classic to Accela GIS.

Topics

Switching GIS Version

Updating the XAPO Source URL

Setting up a Map Service in ArcGIS Server

Switching GIS VersionThe first step in migrating from Accela GIS Classic to Accela GIS is to change the GIS version from Accela GIS Classic to Accela GIS.

To change the GIS version from Accela GIS Classic to Accela GIS

1. Navigate to Accela Automation.

2. Select Admin Tools > GIS > GIS Version Switch.

Accela Automation displays the GIS Version Switch page.

3. Mark the Accela GIS button in the GIS Version area.

4. Click the Submit button.

Accela Automation changes the GIS version from Accela GIS Classic to Accela GIS.

Note: To display the GIS Version Switch link, you must set Function Identification (FID) 0325 Admin Switch GIS to Full Access. For information about setting FIDs, see “Working with FIDs” of the Accela Automation Configuration Reference.

Page 20: Accela GIS 7.3 FP3 Installation Guidedocshare01.docshare.tips/files/26507/265076783.pdf · Accela GIS Classic functions with Accela Automation Vantage360, Accela Automation Classic,

Accela GIS Installation Guide3: Migration 20

Updating the XAPO Source URL The second step in migrating from Accela GIS Classic to Accela GIS is to update the source URL for external APO (address, parcel, and owner) data. External data can come from any external resource. One possible external resource is Accela GIS. If your agency uses Accela GIS as its XAPO source, you need to perform this step to update the source URL for the external data in the External APO Standard Choices. These Standard Choices include EXTERNAL_ADDRESS_SOURCE, EXTERNAL_OWNER_SOURCE, and EXTERNAL_PARCEL_SOURCE. Otherwise, proceed to next step.

Accela GIS and Accela Automation communicate through a web service to leverage external address, parcel, and owner data. Accela GIS data fields are mapped to the corresponding Accela Automation fields for each address, parcel, and owner.

For instructions on creating a Standard Choice, see “Working with Standard Choices” in the Accela Automation Configuration Reference.

To set the source URL for external APO

1. Navigate to Accela Automation.

2. Select Admin Tools > Agency Profile > Standard Choices.

Accela Automation displays the Standard Choices Search page.

3. Find the External APO Standard Choice you want to work with.

Accela Automation displays the Standard Choices Item - Edit page.

4. In the Source URL row, enter this URL: http://agisservername/agis/xapo.asmx?WSDL, where agisservername is the Accela GIS server name or IP: Port and agis is the Accela GIS virtual root name.

Accela Automation recognizes the new source URL.

Accela GIS Installation Guide3: Migration 21

5. Click the Update button.

Accela Automation updates the Standard Choice settings.

Setting up a Map Service in ArcGIS ServerThe third step in migrating from Accela GIS Classic to Accela GIS is to set up a map service in ArcGIS Server. To maintain your agency’s existing GIS data links in Accela Automation database, the map service(s) you set up in ArcGIS Server must correspond to the map service(s) created for ArcIMS and used in Accela GIS Classic.

Accela Automation data is linked to agency GIS data through four values: Agency Name, Map Service Name, Layer Name, and Layer ID Field Value. For existing Accela Automation data to work, these four values must remain the same.

For instructions on setting up a map service in ArcGIS Server, refer to the documentation that accompanied your ArcGIS Server license.

The ArcGIS Server map service elements listed in List 1: Map Service Elements must have the same names as the ArcIMS map service elements.

List 1: Map Service Elements

Agency Name An agency name identifies the agency of which the map service is in use.

Map Service Name A map service name identifies a specific map service in your agency’s GIS server, such as ArcGIS Server. Typically, the name of a map service corresponds to the agency that uses the map service, such as Petaluma or Bridgeview.

When you migrate from Accela GIS Classic to Accela GIS, you must enter the same AA GIS Service ID in the Accela GIS Administration setting as existing GIS Service ID in Accela Automation Classic.

Page 22: Accela GIS 7.3 FP3 Installation Guidedocshare01.docshare.tips/files/26507/265076783.pdf · Accela GIS Classic functions with Accela Automation Vantage360, Accela Automation Classic,

Accela GIS Installation Guide3: Migration 22

Layer Name Map layer names identify a specific feature class on a map. For example, you might have map layers for fire hydrants, street lights, railroads, parks, and parcels.

When you migrate from Accela GIS Classic to Accela GIS, the map layers you create in ArcGIS Server must have the exact same names as the existing map layers created in the ArcIMS map service.

Accela recommends that you maintain the ArcIMS map service layer names. If it is not feasible to maintain the ArcIMS map service layer names, update the related Accela GIS tables in the Accela Automation database. There might also be EMSE scripts using layer names. In this case, update the scripts.

For more information on working with map layers, see “Importing and Configuring Map Layer Settings” in the Accela GIS Administrator Guide.

Layer ID Field Value Layer ID field values link a map layer’s GIS data with Accela Automation data. The data in this field must have non-empty, non-null, unique values. Accela recommends creating an ID field, such as HYDRANTID, and using it as the Layer ID field value. This way, you can maintain the consistency of data during migration.

If a database default ID field, such as OBJECTID, is used as a linking field, there is a possibility that the link between Accela GIS and Accela Automation is broken during migration. If you enable the Accela GIS editing functionality, you cannot use OBJECTED as Layer ID field.

Set the Layer ID field using the Accela GIS Administration tool. When you migrate from Accela GIS Classic to Accela GIS, the field you select as the Layer ID field must contain the same data it previously contained.

For more information on working with Layer ID fields, see “Importing and Configuring Map Layer Settings” in the Accela GIS Administrator Guide.
