Topic: Best Practices for Publishing Geoprocessing Tools in a distributed environment, Tips and TricksTechnology Associates developed a sophisticated geoprocessing application using Python and ModelBuilder that is published to ArcGIS Server, to perform geospatial analysis on over 100 data layers that ask questions such as:


·         What environmental layers intersects the project area within specified buffer distances?
·         How far features are from work sites?
·         What are the temporary or permanent impacts in acres for each site?
·         What is the elevation and centroid coordinates (in 8 different systems) for each worksite?
·         Reports on frequency of occurrence for RT&E species and closest occurrence.
 
An Environmental Screening Report is generated from geoprocessing results using an XML Reader to render results.  As part of the geoprocessing task, Technology Associates developed a separate model used for refreshing the FGDB schema.  This minimizes application down-time during data refreshes, cuts hand-on pre-processing time and primes the GIS data for optimized geoprocessing speed.
