[ORMAP-Tech] ORMAP Tools Meeting Notes

[Shad Campbell]

Dean and other Tool Committee members,

A quick update.  I have attached the Project Specifications (including
hours) for updating the  Map Production code to ArcPy.   Please provide
any feedback you may have.  I also moved the Visual Studio 2010 solution
files to the trunk and branched the final Visual Studio 2008 files on
SourceForge.   Lastly, neither David or I have been able to reproduce
the bug that Jon was experiencing.  At this point I'm thinking it's
something specific to Jon's PC but he is setting up another test
environment and will let us know what he finds.  There is not much I can
do at this point.

Let me know when I have the green light to start work on the Map
Production/ArcPy stuff.

-Shad

ORMAP ARCMAP December Tools Programmer Committee 
Notes from Dean Anderson - Tools Coordinator 

1. Review Testing Results

 

Everything looks pretty good for going to ArcMap 10.  Shad is about
done.  John found a bug that Shad thinks he should get cleared up pretty
quick. Shad is going to get bill to Phil. We approve him paying it and
closing the conversion to ArcMap10 project. 

2. Moving ArcMap 10 to trunk 

 

We are going to replace the download with ArcMap 10.  Shad is going to..
- Save 9.3 to branch
- Delete 9.3 in trunk 
- Update Trunk with 10 

This should be done by January 1.  Dean will get it set to download
(with David's help.)  David will work with Dean on getting permissions
and training on source forge to do this. 

Once this is done Robert is going to copy trunk to branch and make the
updates for annotation. We will then move this to trunk at some future
time. 

 

3. Going to ArcMap 10 

 

Programmers found a couple little things counties will have to do when
going to 10.  Lane, Deschutes, Polk and Clackamas are all in testing
mode.  It appears that you can run the tests on the production database.
Lane and Deschutes have set this up.  The big issue when going to ArcMap
10 is to be sure to uninstall the tools prior unstalling 9.3.  If you do
not the tool install will not work.  We will put notes on the upgrade
process on the web site.

4 Annotation Demo 

 

Robert showed this.  Demo worked well and  will be moved to trunk.
Talked about making it work without annotation distance/direction pairs.
We will do this at some future time as an update. 

5. Training

 

Deschutes, Polk, and Lane agreed to do work on training. The goal is to
move training materials to a WIKI so that counties have the materials
available to them to do training when they needed it.  We discussed a
number of different training alternatives and thought this would work
best. 

6. Wiki 

 

Dean will setup a wiki  by January 10th.  He will send out an outline of
WKI topics soon. 

7. Developer Programmer Comments: 

 

Was noted that it is important to have Automatic update turned on. Need
to check feature class to sure function turn one. This type of
validation is important so that apps do not blow up.  This topic will be
addressed in more detail on the WIKI

8. Map Production - Map production folks met. Shad should have a
proposal for review in a week or so.
