Included JavaScript APIs Integrate Spatial Data and Services to Optimize Decision Making

Redlands, California—ESRI will demonstrate the new mashup capabilities of ArcGIS 9.3 at the Where 2.0 conference in Burlingame, California, May 13 and 14, 2008. The JavaScript APIs included in ArcGIS 9.3 give end users the capability to combine geographic information system (GIS)-based Web services from ArcGIS Server with other Web content. This new capability makes it easier to deploy ArcGIS Server data and services in custom applications and deliver spatial analysis throughout the enterprise. ArcGIS 9.3 is the first GIS to provide mashup capability.

The ArcGIS JavaScript APIs reduce the learning curve and development time for distributing scalable and responsive GIS applications on the Web. End users can deploy map data and GIS processing tasks in lightweight, customized Web mapping applications, providing large numbers of customers with real decision-making tools.

The new ArcGIS JavaScript APIs are a simple way to integrate ArcGIS Server with Web mapping services provided through ArcGIS Online or with other Web mapping platforms such as those provided via Google Maps or Microsoft Virtual Earth.

Attendees of Where 2.0 can visit ESRI at booth #2 for more information on these mashup capabilities. You can also interact with online demonstrations of the JavaScript APIs by visiting www.esri.com/serverdemos.
