ArcGIS Schematics

ArcGIS Schematics lets you generate diagrams using:

• GIS features organized into a geometric network or network dataset
  
• XML data coming from external applications such as industry applications, ERPs, PLMs, or analysis packages
• Queries on spatial or non-spatial data
• Solved network analysis layers

Easily locate elements you see in the schematic representation by interacting with the GIS view of the same data. You can even edit a schematic feature without impacting the associated GIS features.

See the same set of network features in different graphical representations. Multiple graphical representations, such as logical and physical display, provide a better understanding of how a network is organized and help accelerate decision cycles.

Schematic diagrams are just another set of layers that are available in a map. You can use the ArcMap symbology and labeling engines directly on your diagrams. ArcGIS Schematics lets you save configurations so you can easily produce content for specific needs.

Use out-of-the-box schematic rules and API to develop your own custom layouts from scratch using a COM-compliant programming language. You can also use tools and commands to manually refine the content of your schematic diagram.You will provide additional value to your current workflow with open access to information and communication throughout the entire business process: planning, managing, and executing.

ArcGIS Schematics is available as an extension to ArcGIS for Server, so you can publish your diagrams and then expose them to others. Also, developers can get the Schematics extension for ArcGIS Engine and add Schematics to their own custom GIS apps.
