Development tools for using Spatial Data

Hi everyone,
What are the best tools that are used to develop the spatial applications that you guys are using/developing? Should I get something like eSpatial, or just develop in notepad?? Is there something else that uses your spatial data and can generate maps based on your data in your database?
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Daniel,
Thanks!
I am looking to develop a map of the US that shows the locations of military bases that we are responsible for monitoring. This map will have an icon near the name of each of the bases that is colored depending on if a trouble ticket has been created due to an outage or problem at the location. Example, red for a network outage, green if nothing is going on. What I am struggling with is where do I get all the geometry to create the map of the US, or can I just use images that are already created and specify the X and Y on that image and use long/lat of the bases and create the locations. This is not a topic I have a lot of experience in as you can see, but it is something I have been assigned to work on.
Thanks!

  • Connection Problem When Using Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio

    I tried to create an Oracle Connection in my Visual Studio 2008 after installing Oracle 11g, Oracle Data Access Components (ODAC) with Oracle Devleoper Tools for Vissual Studio version 11.1.0.6.20.
    I followed the directions according to "Building .NET Applications Using Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio, when I click Test Connection, I keep getting the error message below.
    Microsoft Visual Studio
    ORA-12170: TNS:Connect timeout occurred
    OK
    ---------------------------

    I solved the problem.
    This is what I did for the benefit of the embryonic newbe like me.
    On the Add Connection Dialog
    1.     For Data source name I selected Local Database
    2.     I clicked on the specific User Name and I typed SYSTEM
    3.     For Password, I typed orcl (the password I setup during the installation) (HR did not work for me for User name and Password according to the tutorial instructions)
    4.     For Role, I selected Default
    5.     Connection Name, I selected Local Database
    6.     Before proceeding any further went to Windows XP SP3 where I was operating from, under Start Menu, I selected Administrative Tools then Services
    a.     On the Windows Services (Local) Dialog, under name, I selected OracleServiceORCL and OracleOraDb11g_home1TNSListener. I clicked on them one at a time
    b.     On the presented Dialog, under Service Status, I Clicked on the Start Button to start the Services

  • Safari scrolls to bottom when filling out form with developer tools in use

    I love the Safari developer tools and use them all the time, but one behaviour is driving me up the wall. Whenever I have the developer tools open (whether for the error console, the web inspector, etc.) and I try to enter data in a form on the page, for every character I type or control I click, the page scrolls to the bottom. I end up having to close developer tools (not great if what I'm typing is to see the result in the tools) or typing blindly. Scrolling back to the form doesn't work, because it scrolls to the bottom again for the next character typed or control clicked.
    I'm using Safari 4.0.5 on Snow Leopard, but this behaviour has been consistent for some time in earlier versions of Safari and on Leopard. Any tips for changing this would be greatly appreciated.

    HI and Welome to Apple Discussions...
    Make sure Safari is opening in 32-bit mode, not 64. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.
    If you still have problems, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. If you can use Safari / Dev tools, then that .plist file needs to be moved to the Trash.

  • Suggestions for the Oracle Developer Tools for VS2005

    I'd like to start a thread for constructive feedback of the Beta version of these Oracle Developer Tools for VS2005.
    First off, check the known issues here before posting:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/dotnet/odt10202rn.html
    So, here are my issues:
    - In the Oracle Explorer, when you right click on a large table and click "Retrieve Data..." it hangs the IDE until an apparent timeout value of 30 seconds, then shows a message box stating that "The query is taking a long time. Would you like to continue" ...waiting? I think the better approach here is to follow MS. In Menu Tools -> Options -> Database Tools -> DataConnections, there is a setting to limit SQL results to x number of rows. I think ODT should do one of the following. 1. Read this value and apply it. OR 2. Hardcode a value of 100 - 500 rows. 3. Add a setting similar to MS in the Options...
    - In the Oracle Explorer, when you right-click on a view and click "Design..." the code for the view opens, but is not very readable because the line breaks are interpreted a little boxes. After dumping it into a hex editor, you can see the little box characters are Linefeeds (Char(10)). If these are all replaced with Carriage Return+Linefeed (Chr(13) + Char(10)), and pasted back into the editor in VS2005, it works perfectly. Note: My Oracle 9i Server is running on the Linux platform.
    - I know this is a known issue, but this one's a biggie for me. Drag and drop is not supported from Oracle Explorer to the XML Schema Designer. Will Drag-and-Drop of tables generate TableAdapters as well with the Fill methods?
    - Pre-existing Triggers don't seem to be visible in the Oracle Explorer.
    Thanks,
    -Tony

    Hi
    I am new to Oracle but not to VS. I have downloaded and installed the newest tools for Developer, having first tried the install for VS2003.net (which refused to install on my VS 2005.) I got the beta download and installed it, but my oracle explorer shows nothing. Any attempt to add a connection results in an error ORA-12560:TNS:protocol adaptor error. I had the full install of 10g r2 on my notebook, but removed it and opted for the XE version. I removed the Oracle_Home environment variable prior to installing XE. I am trying to connect to the HR database, and the account is unlocked. I saw a reference to the tnsfiles file, and that seems to be the problem, but I don't know what to do about it. Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer help.

  • Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2013 on Windows 10 Technical Preview

    Hi, I've never developed a plugin for Office before. I've downloaded the technical preview of Windows 10 and have it running via Boot Camp on my MacBook (Looks good! I'll buy it when it comes out). Obviously with this being in beta it's understandable that
    there are problems, so this is just a heads up on one particular problem. Maybe there's already a solution or workaround?
    I've downloaded Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition, brought a copy of Microsoft Office Home And Student 2013 and am currently in the process of installing Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2013.
    The only problem though is that when I try to install it I get the following message:
    http://s22.postimg.org/dxh1gtra9/Install_Problem_Office_Plugin_Tools.png
    Here is the log:
    http://pastebin.com/7wWkSfjF
    I also tried to download the file directly and run that.
    http://s3.postimg.org/tj9vb660j/Install_Problem_Office_Plugin_Tools2.png
    I right clicked on the file and noticed an options called "Troubleshoot Compatibility". There was a wizard, and I ran through the wizard a number of times through different routes but none of them worked. I was unable to find the option which turned
    off compatibility mode. I then searched for answers online which told me to do some things in the regedit program but that didn't seem to solve the problem.
    Anyway, I understand that this is a beta version of Windows 10 and that there are going to be problems but thought it would be best to let you know. Perhaps I should just bite the bullet and buy Windows 8.
    Many thanks,
    Lawrence

  • Best Practice for Storing Spatial Data in Multiple Projections?

    From what I've been able to determine MS SQL can't do reprojections is that correct? Assuming it is, the state of Washington requires that our GIS data be managed in Washington Stat Plane South
    but for our web mapping sites need the data in Web Mercator.  Is it OK then to have two geometry columns in a spatial enabled table, say a county table, one in WSPS and the other in WM? 
    I’m coming at this from a 30 year background in GIS using ESRI software. 
    Usually we would store the shape / geometry in one projection and project it to other on the fly when needed. 
    That way there is only one definitive source.  I don’t see a way to do this in MS SQL.

    Hi Scott.
    Storing two columns of spatial data is fine in SQL Server. And you are correct that there is no built-in reprojection in SQL Server, most folks do that as part of data loading. There was talk of porting parts of ogr2ogr to SQLCLR, but I don't think anyone
    did that.
    Cheers, Bob

  • Development tools for Project/Server Project Online in O365

    Hello,
    My company is seeking to unify it's IT PMO using Project Server or Project Online. I notivced that the Project Server certs have been deprecated and the pages ar eno longer available. Does that mean Project Online is the replacement/continuiation of that
    product?
    If so, what are some development tools you would advise for me to have to be able to develop/modiify and administrate Project Online in O365?
    Thanks,
    T

    Hi,
    Indeed Project Server and Project Online are 2 different products. You have to notice that Microsoft regularly releases new version of Project Server (2003, 2007, 2010, 2013). Some old version feature might be deprecated indeed. Moreover Project Online is
    a new version on the Microsoft solution that doesn't require to have on-premise infra.
    Note also that Project Onlie is meant to be used quite out-of-the-box whereas Project Server on premise allows you doing custom development.
    Below a link for Project Online:

  • Is there a USB Instrument driver developer tool for CVI

    Hi! ASIC LabRat,
    I agree with your comment.  IVI drivers take too much overhead and the executing speed can be very slow compared to the drivers developed using VISA platform.  The previous link sent by the NI engineer was very old (2001) and doesn't really help you at all. 
    Please take a look at this one instead: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/4713. 

  • Development Tools for R12

    Hi,
    I am positive this has been answered before on Metalink but I can't seem to get the definitive answer from metalink nor can I find one in the Forums here. So, here is the question again.
    We will be upgrading from 11.5.10 to R12.1.3 on Linux later this year. I am in the process of getting all the following development tools necessary for our R12 development on Windows clients. So, I need to install the appropriate patched versions of these dev tools on Windows 7/Windows XP machines to work with our Apps R12.1.3 going forward. Metalink suggested that I follow the link in note "437878.1 - Upgrading OracleAS 10g Forms and Reports in Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12". I still could not understand whether I need to install Developer Suite 10.1.2 and apply the patch listed in the note or Install Oracle Application Server 10.1.2 (from OTN?) and apply the patch listed in the note to bring the tools up to 10.1.3 version. This is where my confusion lies. Again this is separate from the middle tier software for R12 - this is for client development that will then be FTPed to middle tier and compiled there/
    1. Oracle Forms/Reports Builders - Do I download Developer Suite 10.1.2 or App Server 10.1.3?
    2. Oracle BI Publisher - What version and where do I get this from?
    3. Oracle JDeveloper for OA Framework - What version and where do I get this from (Metalink or OTN)
    Thanks in advance for any leads or direction.
    Regards,
    Venkat

  • Wysiwyg developer tool for searchable real estate site

    I would like to know if there is a wysiwyg developer tool
    similar to Cartweaver for creating a searchable real estate company
    website. I thought ADDT might fit the bill, but $300 later it is
    apparently not up to the task...

    Hi
    With Muse you can design the site , regarding content management this is done on hosting platform where you host the site as you avail the crm/cms feature where clients can manage the contents.
    You can use any hosting platform like wordpress or Business Catalyst, where we publish the site and then manage cms from site backend.
    Let me know if you need more details.
