Prerequisites
- A Portal for ArcGIS on-site deployment or an ArcGIS for organization account to support storage of user-created Roadway Report configurations.
- A Windows-based ArcGIS Server deployment to deploy Esri Roads and Highways for Server.
- A web server, such as Internet Information Server (IIS), to deploy the Roadway Reporter web application.
To deploy Roadway Reporter and a supporting dataset, follow the steps below:
-
Install Esri Roads and Highways for Server and Roadway Reporter.
Esri Roads and Highways for Server
Roadway Reporter requires an additional license. Use the Software Authorization Wizard to provide the authorization key after installing Esri Roads and Highways for Server and Roadway Reporter. For more information, see Installing Esri Roads and Highways for Server.
- Create a map document (.mxd) in ArcMap with the routes, internal event layers, intersections (for road log report only) and external event layers (for road log report only) using Esri Roads and Highways for Desktop.
A typical map document for Roadway Reporter contains networks, event layers, and intersection layers. Optionally, you can add polygon layers such as administrative boundaries that can be used to select the routes for which the report will be generated.
- Publish the Generate Report geoprocessing service to your instance of ArcGIS for Server.
- Publish the map document with ArcGIS for Server and enable the Esri Roads and Highways for Server linear referencing capability.
- Author a web map that includes the map service created in the previous step and the appropriate basemaps.
- Using Windows Explorer, browse to and copy the contents of <Installation location>\Server\Web\RoadwayReporter into the web folder of the web server.
For example, in Internet Information Services (IIS), the web folder may be located at C:\inetpub\wwwroot\RoadwayReporter.
- Open the configuration (config.json) file within the RoadwayReporter web folder and modify it to use the web map and geoprocessing services created from previous steps.
- Configure the Portal for ArcGIS or ArcGIS for Organization accounts to save report configurations.
You can enable security for Roadway Reporter to secure the map services being used within the Roadway Reporter web application. For more information, see Configuring Security for Roadway Reporter and Using Portal with Roadway Reporter.
