1. StreamStats: System Design and Web Implementation 12/18/02
Jacque Coles - USGS Dean Djokic - ESRI
2. System Design Core Concepts (1)
3. Web, Application, Map, and Data Servers are separate machines (but could be combined depending on the load and performance requirements).
Current design is based on Windows platform.
Scalability for Application Servers is accomplished by adding more physical servers (computers) with ArcGIS on them. System Design Core Concepts (2)
4. Processing Roles (1) Web Client requests map activity (zoom in/out, delineation at a point, etc.)
The request is sent to the Web Server.
If the request is one for standard map operations, it is forwarded to the Map Server
If the request is for watershed delineation/NFF computations, it is forwarded to the Application Server
Web Server maintains connection between the client and the Map and Application Servers.
5. Application Server performs watershed delineation and characteristics extraction (ArcGIS) and flood frequency computations (NFF). The results are stored in the database through the Data Server (ArcSDE).
Communication between the Web and Application Servers is through a dedicated socket port. Processing Roles (2)
6. Processing Roles (3) Map Server (ArcIMS) manages standard internet-based mapping activities (zooming, panning, turning layers on and off, etc.). Data for map-based operations reside in the database accessible through the Data Server (ArcSDE).
Application and Map Servers do not communicate directly, but they do share the same database. Communication between the two is via Web Server.
7. Data Server (ArcSDE) stores the data for the Application Server and serves the data to the Map Server. Processing Roles (4)

10. Communication Between Server Applications ASP routes requests to either IMS or Application server
IMS handles map related requests ZI,ZO,Pan
Application server handles application specific requests
Application server has an open port for ASP to communicate with ArcMap
Deliniation polygon returned to IMS for Web viewer
GetParameters parameters related to topographic and hydrologic data returned to IMS for Web viewer
11. Communication Between Server Applications (2) Programming was done by ESRI Denver and Redlands
ASP, VB, ArcIMS and ArcObjects on server side
JavaScript and DHTML on the client side
Salmon and Clearwater basins (25,000 sq. mi. 18 cataloging units) to be implemented by the end of January on the Idaho servers for restricted use
