System Requirements

For the server-side components of atlasFX

  • Linux or Windows as operating system

  • Java Version 8 from Oracle

  • atlasFX is a Web application based on the Java servlet specification and requires a servlet container (for example, Tomcat 8)

  • JDBC driver for H2; Alternative JDBC driver for Oracle + Oracle database (additional installation required *)

Incompatibility between JAVA 8 and Tomcat 7

There exist incompatibilities between JAVA 8, which is mandatory for the installation of atlasFX 3.3, and Tomcat 7. We recommend the use of Tomcat 8 under JAVA 8.

For the desktop workstation from which the maps are configured (editor):

  • Current browser (Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer in the latest version)

  • Flash Player 11.1, in which the content management system runs to configure the maps

  • Internet access, provided that content is to be obtained from the Internet, e.g. Basemaps from ArcGIS Online

For the devices from which the cards are to be consumed (Viewer)>

  • Current browser (Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer in the latest version)

  • Internet access or intranet access, depending on where the atlasFX server is located, and whether content from the Internet is part of the configured maps (e.g., basemaps, aerial images), or functionality (e.g., online geocoders)

  • The map applications configured by the map editor can be called as JavaScript / HTML5 applications or as Flex applications (within the Flashplayer).

External requirements:

  • ArcGIS API for Flex Version 3.1 (supplied with the ArcGIS for Server)

  • (Optional) Rest API ArcGIS Server 10.0 and higher (integrated in ArcGIS for Server)

  • (Optional) If the connection of a Non Geo DB (for example, MySQL, Oracle, MS SQL Server, Microsoft Access) is desired, the corresponding JDBC driver must be provided
