Choosing the nautical production environment (Maritime Charting)
The Nautical Environment pane allows you to define the means of populating instances in the product class. You can choose the production environment in the Class Properties dialog box after you have created the class and defined the default data model version.
ArcGIS for Maritime: Charting offers two production environments: enterprise and desktop.
The enterprise production environment creates an individual production database that is linked to the Nautical Information System (NIS) database. Creating products through the New Nautical Product wizard using the enterprise production environment involves extracting data from the NIS database and building replicas for your production database. Having replicas created between your NIS database and production database allows data edits on the NIS to be distributed to the production database via a process called synchronization.
With the desktop production environment, the production databases are managed individually, and there is no link to an NIS. There are two approaches to creating products via the New Nautical Product wizard. You can either compile new data from resources such as scanned nautical charts, digital hydrographic data, and nautical publications or import an existing S-57 cell into your production database.
There is a separate setting to enable BSB for chart products only. If you enable BSB, you will be able to export the BSB product type. You will also be able to define BSB-specific metadata fields during product creation through the New Nautical Product wizard.
- Start ArcMap.
-
If necessary, open the Product Library window by clicking Customize → Production → Product Library on the main menu.
A tree view of the product library appears.
-
Right-click an existing product class from the Product Library tree view and click Properties.
The Class Properties dialog box appears.
-
Click Nautical Environment on the left side of the Class Properties dialog box.
The environment options appear. The environment options are only available if the default data model version for the product class is defined. The Production Environment area appears for all product classes, but the BSB area appears only if the current data model version for the class is for a chart.
-
Choose an option for the production environment in which you will be working.
- Desktop—Production is managed in many individual production databases.
- Enterprise—Production is managed in many individual production databases that are linked to a central database (NIS).
-
If the product class is a chart, and you want to support BSB, check the Enable BSB check box.
注意:
Nonchart products will not display the BSB property.
