Introduction to configuring the nautical product library in SQL Server (Maritime Charting)

This guide book provides the necessary steps to set up a nautical product library geodatabase on a SQL Server database system. It is meant for administrators and broadly covers geodatabase creation, setup, and configuration.

Before starting this guide book, install SQL Server 2008 R2 on a Windows operating system. The default settings for the SQL Server database management system work well with ArcSDE. Configure the instance to accept remote connections.

When you install SQL Server, be sure to install Full-Text Search.
