3 Overview Developer Summit

4 StreetMap Mobile SDK A SDK that allows developers to build custom navigation solutions Includes C++ and C# Sample Application and Source Code

5 StreetMap Mobile: Target Platforms Windows Mobile for Pocket PC 2003, 2003 SE Windows Mobile 5.0/6.0 Windows XP/XP Tablet/Vista CE 4.2 Support discontinued with Version 1.1 Developer Summit 2008

6 StreetMap Mobile Capabilities Audible Turn by Turn Navigation On Board and Hybrid Navigation High Performance 2D and 2.5D Maps Feature Find (addresses, Poi) Routing GPS and Map Matching support Global data support Maps (Tele Atlas or NAVTEQ data available.) Custom Data toolkit Takes in stops from ALR and NA

7 StreetMap Mobile Product Components SDK Binaries OMDs Docs Developer Reference Guide.NAVMAP Description Localization Guides GRF (Stops, Directions file) format description Sample Applications C++ and C#.NET SDC GP Data Tools SDC GP Tools Tool Help TTS Installer Separate Installer by License Developer Summit

8 StreetMap Mobile SDK: Prerequisites Visual Studio 2005 Standard and up, or Visual Studio 2008 Professional and up C# or C++ Familiarity with.net Framework 2.0/.NET Compact Framework 2.0 COM Windows Mobile 5.0/6.0 SDKs (Pocket PC) Active Sync 4.1 or higher installed on XP or WMDC on Vista Access to mobile devices to test deployment Access to GPS devices Data engineering and preparation skills Developer Summit 2008

14 SDK Components Map Document Map Renderer Lookup Functionality Routing Components GPS Components Map Matching Components Text To Speech with directions Localization Components Andrey

15 Map Document (NAVMAP).NAVMAP file Layers Collection Rendering Properties Services Lookup Service Routing Service Location Search (Reverse Geocoder) Rendering properties/schemas for day night mode, multi lingual labels.navmap file specification included with the SDK Write.NAVMAP manually MXD2NAVMAP Converter GP Tool Andrey Developer Summit

16 Data Access Components Access to SDC Map Layers Map Document Returns the Collection of Feature Classes For each Feature class Browse for fields and field types Make SQL queries Geometry properties Andrey Developer Summit

17 Map Renderer Rendering Polylines, Polygons, Points, Multi-points Polylines Color, width, outline, outline color, transparency Polygons Color, width, outline, outline color, fill color, transparency Points and Multi-points Symbol type (circle, square, raster symbol) Color, size, symbol name (raster's), transparency Labels Font name, height, color, effects (bold, italic, underlined) Custom Geometry Support through the API 2D Map and 2.5D Map Implemented with Different Display transformations Andrey Developer Summit

18 Lookup Functionality Not Traditional Geocoding simple model, no complex rules, locale specific logic Suggest only available characters B-Tree Approach (hierarchical) Any SDC data source Street Address and intersection models supported POI lookups with categories City Lookups Lookups Have Several lnputs Streets - Start from State, City, Street Name, House Number POI Category, state, city, name Supports optional fields State and City Optional find POI across entire database Customizable Structure Through GP Tools Developer Andrey Developer Summit

19 Routing Components New Simple Model (SM Mobile 1.1) Fill Collection of Stops Each Stop is X,Y and name X,Y can come from Lookups, Map, GRF (XML) Fill Routing Options Quickest, Shortest, Restrictions, Trip Planning Settings, Barriers rs Call Solve Method Returns directions Directions are geometry and text instructions plus summary of time and distance Solve Reroute Andrey Optimizes knowledge of existing route to make back on track adjustment Developer Summit

20 GPS Components NMEA GPS implementation Interface with Serial and File GPS Fires events with GPS positions Using GPS for displaying location on map Using GPS for map matching capabilities Using GPS for tracking capabilities Andrey Developer Summit 2008

21 Map Matching Components Takes X,Y coordinates to do map matching against the streets geometry Respects speed, bearing, latency to correctly understand our current location on the network Determine on/off route state If off route you can use router to re-route route Andrey Developer Summit

22 Text To Speech with Directions Used for supporting voice guidance Convert Abbreviations to full names depending on context Supports MSAPI Supports Low Level APIs like Loquendo Andrey Developer Summit

23 Localization Components Localization of the UI through.net resource files Localization of Driving Directions through Driving Directions Language file (routing.lng) Data localization supported through dataset (Unicode compliant) Multilanguage support Andrey Developer Summit

24 Application Logic What is the application Doing? Loading the Map Document UI for Lookup and Custom Keyboard Shows available characters and list of candidates Controlling Map Zoom In, Zoom Out, Switching 2 and 2.5 D Defining Routing Settings Add Stops, Control Stops Advanced map Matching and Tracking Advance Voice Guidance Prompts based on location relative to next maneuver Persists user settings Andrey Developer Summit

25 Provided Sample Application Provided Sample application in C++ and C# Implements all standard system components Andrey Developer Summit

26 Useful Tips Developer ArcGIS Server Summit Final 26

27 UI Design Design for the mobile user experience Large Buttons Minimize menu/window depth Make things easy to find Consider deployment platform and available UI capabilities Transparency for buttons ArcGIS Server 9.2 Final 27

28 Data Development Considerations Size Hardware Constraints Updates Performance Data generalization and filtering Form Factor Develop map document for the mobile device ArcGIS Server 9.2 Final 28

29 Data Development Workflow Preprocessing Preprocessing Data Filtering GP Tools Blocking Generalization Compression (Layers) Routing Indexes Lookup Indexes Develop Map Document Developer ArcGIS Server Summit Final 29

30 Building Lookups Source Data is SDC Lookups follow hierarchies in the data (B- Tree) Hierarchies can be defined as one or more levels Hierarchies filled by unique values in fields from SDC file State Street City 1 City 2 Street Street STATE CITY STREET ADDR_F ADDR_T CA Redlands New York CA Redlands New York CA Redlands Redlands CA Yucaipa Oak Glenn Developer ArcGIS Server Summit Final 30

31 More Lookups Alias and abbreviation tables supported GP Tools build the indexes and lookup service files.bxx is the index.ls is the service file Services are implemented in the client C++ sample application can be used to test the indexes ArcGIS Server 9.2 Final 31

32 Building Map Layers Mobile maps are multi-scale Generalization is critical to support performance at different scales Generalization parameters are different than those for desktop maps Most line and polygon layers generalized 4 times Guidelines can be applied for inserting custom layers to an existing map ArcGIS Server 9.2 Final 32

33 Generalization Parameters Some generic values of generalization from Douglas- Peuker algorithm and scale ranges used Gener_1; Prec_1 Gener_2; Prec_2 Gener_3; Prec_3 Gener_4; Prec_4 Gener_5; Prec_5 Highways ; ; ; Major Roads ; ; Roads ; Major Water ; ; ; ; Water ; ; National Parks ; ; ; ; GreenBelt ; ; CityArea ; ; ; ProvinceArea ; ; ; ; ; UNIVERSAL values of generalization parameters for SM Mobile data maxscale minscale Generalization Precision (MultBy) ArcGIS Server 9.2 Final 33

34 Authoring the Map Build an MXD for cartographic Layers Consider the deployment map size and resolution Design map for mobile ArcGIS Server 9.2 Final 34

35 Creating the NAVMAP Run the MXD 2 NAVMAP Tool Select the MXD Map the Routing Service Map the Lookup Service(s) Test the.navmap file C++ Sample Application Edit the.navmap file Integrate the.navmap file ArcGIS Server 9.2 Final 35
