3. 1. Introduction Web-based prototype What our application does? – Origin bus stop – Point of interest (hospitals, malls, cinemas etc.) – Nearest bus stop from point of interest – Route from point of interest to nearest bus stop – Route from origin bus stop to destination bus stop – Bus Number and Timing

4. 2. Available spatial and non-spatial data A_C Bus Stop 2011: All route wise station names CityBus Time Sept 2010: Timing between stations Route Timing: Time for New Mumbbai (3 Routes only) ACTimeTableApril 2012: Number of trips through out a day Ac Bus Stop.shp: (BUSSTOP, ROUTE, XCORD, YCORD) Ac Bus Route.shp: Road network for AC Buses Road.shp: Road Network of Mumbai city Town Boundary.shp: Outer Boundary with name POI.shp: (LONG, LAT, Name, Category) Railway Line.shp:

5. 3. Data Modeling Directions – Up and Down (Attribute Run) – Truncated Routes Bus Stops – Two Points on same locations – Unique ID Bus Route – Add attribute ‘Name’

6. 3. Data Modeling Address Locator – Convert textual description to location – Why we need that? – Different style available – What if we don’t give tolerance? Find Route tool (ArcGIS 10) – Why we use it? What it returns? – What we should have before using it?

7. 3. Data Modeling

12. Why Combination of three in Ref_ID?

13. 3. Data Modeling

14. Final GeoDatabase – Making single shapefile Map Document – Add required layers – What about visibility? – At least one network layer (Route, Closest Facility)

15. 4. Uploading on ArcGIS Serve Type of services server provides – Map service (.mxd) – Geocode service (.loc) – Geodata Service – Geometry service (no GIS resource requires) – Geoprocessing services (toolbox-.tbx) – Image Service (For raster data) – Search Service

16. 4. Uploading on Server Three ways to upload service Enable capabilities like KML, Network Analysis, Mobile Data Access etc. Mapping will be default capability After successful upload you will get link – http://gise-lab-int1:8399/arcgis/rest/services/Final/MapServer – http://gise-lab-int1:8399/arcgis/rest/services/Final/NAServer/Route

17. 5. Creating Web Application In built application in ArcGIS Server SOAP Services (Java,.NET) – Server side development – Lack of functionalities REST Services (JavaScript, Silverlight, Flex, Apex) – Client side development – Very popular

18. 5. Creating Web Application DOJO Toolkit – Dojo is an open source toolkit that helps you write robust and efficient JavaScript code – The ESRI developers who created the ArcGIS JavaScript API used Dojo to simplify their development – dojo.require("esri.map") (which is minimum) Why not Jquery?

19. 6. Snapshots

29. 7. Conclusion Closest facility and shortest route is working fine but still there are some drawbacks – Only 10 facilities have been added (total 420 stops) – Browser compatibility in JavaScript – Complex Queries – Identifying closest facility Because of decimal numbers Can’t do reverse geocoding too – Route Number

30. 8. Future Expansion New Programming language – Flex has highest number of examples available Mobile Compatibility – For iOS – Enable mobile data access – Change view port Change of bus feature
