Configuring ArcGIS for Maritime: Server

ArcGIS for Maritime: Server uses a server object extension (SOE). You will need to add the SOE to a map service within your ArcGIS site to enable Maritime Chart Service functionality for the map service.

Enabling Maritime Chart Service

Perform the following steps to enable Maritime Chart Service.

1. Create a folder called maritimeserver in the ArcGIS for Server site at <ArcGIS Server installation drive>\arcgisserver\directories.

   Note:

   If this location does not exist, verify that your ArcGIS for Server site has been created. See Creating a new site.

2. Copy the maritimechartservice folder from <ArcGIS Server Installation Directory>\MaritimeServer\Server<version> to the maritimeserver folder created in step 1.
3. Login as a server manager by launching https://localhost:6443/arcgis/manager.
4. Click the Site tab.
5. In the GIS Server pane, click Extensions.
6. Click Add Extention.
7. Click Browse and browse to <ArcGIS Install Directory>\MaritimeServer\Server<version>\Bin.
8. Click MaritimeServer.soe.
9. Click Add.

   MaritimeServer.soe is now successfully added.

10. Click on the Services tab.
11. Click on your map service.
12. In the Map Services pane, click Capabilities.
13. Check the Maritime Chart Service check box.
14. Verify all the properties.

    Note:

    The MaritimeServer.soe will look for the maritimechartservice folder mentioned in step 2 to automatically populate the Maritime Chart Service Capabilities properties.

15. Click Save and Restart in the ArcGIS Server Manager to restart the map service.

Maritime Chart Service capabilities are now enabled.

Note:

If you have installed Maritime Chart Service in a cluster, you only need to enable it on one of the machines in the cluster. The configuration changes will automatically be applied to the other machines in the cluster.
