Geocortex EssentialsA Spatial Application Infrastructure (SAI) for Web-based Mapping

At the heart of Geocortex Essentials is a powerful future-proofing approach that we call Spatial Application Infrastructure (SAI). An SAI framework provides key web-GIS capabilities for building multiple standardized applications by leveraging integrated components to get things done more efficiently.

Core ComponentsCore helps you quickly create powerful and effective applications. Key, richly engineered capabilities like database linking, enhanced security, search, and customizable reporting and printing can be seamlessly incorporated into your applications.

Forms allows you to create custom cross-platform interfaces and dialogs. You can add input items such as text boxes, auto-complete entries, date pickers and drop-downs, then associate validation rules with required fields and range values, and control the layout of forms that will be displayed in your applications.

WorkflowWorkflow provides an intuitive approach to model and automate existing business processes, and then deliver simple, step-by-step interactions and forms that make complex sequences straightforward and intuitive. Going far beyond spatial processing activities, workflow helps you create elegant, targeted applications for your end users.

ViewersWe don’t believe in one-off viewers. We believe in customizable viewers that evolve gracefully over time, following development strategies that minimize being bound to a single deployment technology.

The Geocortex Viewer for Silverlight and Geocortex Viewer for HTML5 deliver beautiful, holistically designed user experiences. They’re created and configured using our intuitive management tools and follow an approach that streamlines development, customization and upgrades. Both viewers integrate underlying platform capabilities while allowing the addition of custom/third-party development.

ManagementManager and associated modules give you the tools to precisely develop the applications you require, and as efficiently as possible.

Application settings defined within Manager are technology-agnostic. Our XML-based configuration framework allows you to manage multiple applications, services, and REST endpoints so you can serve desktop, web, and mobile users. Viewer Template Engine approaches each viewer as a standalone template, and outputs applications based on technology-agnostic configuration data from the Geocortex Essentials framework. This helps future-proof your development investment as viewer technologies come and go over time.
