| SuperGIS Image Server 3.0 |
| |
| Overview |
SuperGIS Image Server 3 is a set of enterprise class huge image server software for managing, processing and publishing image. It allows users to rapidly access huge image data as files, enabling users to rapidly access the image data without reloading, which effectively solves the slow speed problem in managing the transmission of image data and publishing. With on-the-fly image process function, when Server side receives the request from Client side for processing the image data of Server side, it will send the processed results back which will be shown on Client side. Therefore, the image data of Server side can be highly reused, and furthermore, the huge cost spent in purchase of image data can be saved. Also, with the sufficient resources and powerful calculation capability in Server side, the time and cost spent in image processing can be greatly reduced, and the value of image can be optimized. And the performance of transmission is also greatly improved by the application of the brand new technologies of image compression and Streaming in SuperGIS Image Server, which efficiently reduce the volume of transmission. Besides, the watermark encryption and permission lock functions can effectively reduce the risk of confidential data being stolen during transmission or sharing and ensure the security of the data in flow.
SuperGIS Image Server can use Client side software, such as SuperGIS Desktop, SuperGIS Viewer and SuperGIS 3D Globe as the client side application, and SuperGIS Image Server can effectively reduce the burden on Client side system in image processing and rapidly display the processed effect.

| Image Process Function |
SuperGIS Image Server runs on-the-fly image process in Server side, allowing image data in Server side to be processed according to Client sides request. The processed data will be sent to Client side and displayed. In the respect of image process, SuperGIS Image Server provides 12 functions listed as below:

| Main Features |
SuperGIS Image Server provides the great capability of high-speed image transmission and supports multiple data formats, which can solve the slow speed problem caused in managing and publishing a huge amount of image data. The features of SuperGIS Image Server are listed below:

| Quick-index |
SuperGIS Image Server is able to access the source data, and the source data can be in the type of file without any advance processing. Thus, these source data can be used to display as various different image products, reducing the storage capacity and allowing client side to attain the image data quicker.
Besides, SuperGIS Image Server uses the self-developed image format-SuperGIS Raster (SGR) as the Image Storing Structure, the features are listed as below:
|
| |
| On-the-fly Processing |
| SuperGIS Image Server provides the service of image data distributing and also a series of Image Processing functions of on-the-fly processing, enabling users to run special treatment to specific extent, which will reduce the data volume and furthermore reduce the cost for data maintenance and storage. |
| |
| Streaming |
| SuperGIS Image Server adopted the self-designed Streaming Protocol and can present the huge image data in Streaming by co-working with SuperGIS 3D analyst to save more waiting time. In addition to image streaming processing, SuperGIS Image Server also supports to process the vector and elevation data. |
| |
| 3D Display |
| The front-end of SuperGIS Image Server can match the SuperGIS 3D analyst and SuperGIS Globe as well as offer users a complete and Google Earth-like resolution. But different from Google Earth, SuperGIS Image Server provides various GIS analyses and data processing functions, more than simply presenting visual effects. |
| |
| High Capacity |
| SuperGIS Image Server supports multi-users environment. Cooperating with the schedule of multi-thread and streaming, the system will response to each delivered request and show the progress for users, so users no longer need to wait and get no response. Each delivered request can get response immediately and show the progress; therefore, users can decide what to do next according to the Network status, which will effectively replace the embarrassing condition of waiting for a long time and never know the progress. |
| |
| Support Multiple Data Format |
| The core image data structure of SuperGIS Image Server is developed by SuperGeo Technologies, and we also provide the conversion function and conversion tools to convert general GIS image files, including MrSID, ECW, GeoTiff, Erdas LAN, JPEG2000, BMP, and PNG, so users can rapidly make the preparations ready for the image publish. |

 |
CPU: Pentium IV 1.6G or above |
 |
RAM: 1GB or above |
 |
IIS: 5.0 or above |
 |
.Net Framework 2.0 or above |
 |
Internet bandwidth: Intranet:100Mb or above |
| |
Internet:4Mb/1Mb (download/upload) or above |
|
| 2. |
Client side |
| |
 |
CPU: Pentium III 800 or above |
 |
RAM: 256 MB or above |
 |
Operating System: Windows 2000/Windows XP/Windows 2003/Windows Vista |

|
| 3. |
Communication Environment |
| |
The communication environment for the APs in Server side is designed as intranet, the protocol and port has no special restriction; the communication environment for Server side and Client side is internet, and the protocol is set as HTTP basically and port is usual set 80 port. It is available to switch to other settings based on the software applied in Client side. |
