Usually they are included with the job announcement. Here is a link to a job on the State of Wyoming Job listing page: Job Opportunities | ` This job is specifically for a Surface Water Hydrologist, it lists Essential Functions and Qualifications, which includes Preference and Knowledge (this section used to be the knowledge and skills questions). Make sure that you include each of these areas in your application and resume when you submit it. Also, go to the specific department's web page and include specific things that the agency does in your experience as well. Think critically and specifically (do not be general when filling out the application, be specific, remember a computer is screening this application) about your skills.

I believe the users have to be restored or reset once the database is restored, make sure in your security in the database that the SDE user is the owner of the SDE schema and that the DBO user is the owner of the DBO schema. They have to match.

I agree with Rickey, and I would add make sure that any qualifications or knowledge and skills questions that the employer asks for are mentioned specifically in your resume and application. For a large government agency, the application is the important thing, but it does not cover everything that an applicant has done, most agency's let you include your resume as an attachment. Then the applications are screened by computer (the computer program is searching for key words through the whole application including the attachment). The more of these key words that are present will qualify the application to be seen by the hiring agency and considered for an interview (this is very efficient when you have 50-multiple hundred's of applicants for any job). I mention this process to help you see the importance of making sure the application and resume mention the job qualifications and knowledge and skills specifically. A highly qualified and skilled applicant can be deemed unqualified, because of an incomplete application, because of the screening process. If you do not have enough space to add all of your info for a job, finish the question in a word document and add it as an attachment. Be as complete as possible and send it to a trusted person to review for errors and completeness before sending it. If a job requires good oral and written communication skills you do not want the first thing the employer to see is a resume full of errors. Lastly, do not be afraid to go back to the hiring agency to ask where you fell in the pool, and what you can do differently for the next interview. This will help you to gain confidence with each interview and make the necessary changes to separate your self at the next interview. Good luck there is a job out there for you, just keep pushing forward.

On your last line does your > need to be outside the quote? Also, does the semicolon on the second to last line need to be outside of the quote as well?

This extension was created by Esri to make working with GIS data easier within AutoCAD. In order to create the feature service it has to come from an Enterprise Geodatabase; so, you can create a version within your enterprise for the the AutoCAD feature service. The beauty is that you can utilize the other map services within your CAD environment, and utilize what you are doing on the CAD side back into your GIS environment and display this information rather quickly into web app's that you may create from the GIS side. Plus you will be able to load your drawings into the Desktop GIS directly and copy and paste your drawing features into feature classes on the server side as well. Having this kind of setup will allow you to use each program simultaneously.

try removing the space between time and AM/PM ArcMap would look at these as two separate attributes because of the space.

That is correct and then be able to demonstrate how they would integrate or better implement GIS to meet the needs of the department or program.

Thank you for the question, I know when I have been on a hire committee, the steps that we follow are first the position is opened, then a list of job requirements and knowledge and skill questions are added to the job listing. It is important for the candidate to answer those questions as thoroughly as possible from their education, and experience, because the application is graded electronically before a person even looks at the application. The department will tell the state HR, to give all of the qualified applicants, to select ~5 for interviews. So, including knowledge of not just GIS, but knowledge of the specific department and program that they are applying for will qualify the person. During the interview the candidate may be asked scenario type questions about how they would apply GIS to the specific needs of the program. Planning for these types of questions would help the candidate gain more points on the interview. So, after this explanation, all of the above is looked at and can help the candidate when we are hiring someone. Thank you once again.

Since this server is primarily used for serving rest services, you can go into the Task Manager, go to the processes and see the number of SOC services that are running. By default ArcGIS server will make 2 available/service unless to change the settings. We were consuming 7 gb of RAM out of 8 just to have these accounts available and ready when the service would be used. We have changed to have a minimum of 0 in the service settings, now the account is created when the service is actually accessed, not we have 6 -7 gb available at any time.

Thank you Rachel for the list of resources, sometimes it is hard to know where to go, because you have an idea of what you want to do, but may not know what Esri calls the tool.

Thank you Robert, that was all it was, and thank you for the AMD resource.

I am new to javascript, so I have taken a sample map and added featurelayers, but know I am trying to add dyanamicmapservice to the same map, and it is not working. Here is the code. Thank you. Please let me know if you need the rest of the code. <script> var map; require([ "esri/map", "esri/layers/FeatureLayer", "esri/dijit/Legend", "dojo/_base/array", "dojo/parser", "dijit/layout/BorderContainer", "dijit/layout/ContentPane", "dijit/layout/AccordionContainer", "dojo/domReady!", "esri/layers/ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer", "esri/layers/ImageParameters" ], function( Map, FeatureLayer, Legend, arrayUtils, parser, ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer, ImageParameters ) { parser.parse(); map = new Map("map", { basemap:"hybrid", center: [-107.38, 42.99], zoom: 7 }); var LQD_Active_Permits = new FeatureLayer("https://gis.deq.wyoming.gov/arcgis/rest/services/LQD_PERMIT_DATA/MapServer/0", { mode: FeatureLayer.MODE_ONDEMAND, outFields:["*"] }); var LQD_County_Permits = new FeatureLayer("https://gis.deq.wyoming.gov/arcgis/rest/services/LQD_PERMIT_DATA/MapServer/1", { mode: FeatureLayer.MODE_ONDEMAND, outFields:["*"] }); var Coal_Boundary = new FeatureLayer("https://gis.deq.wyoming.gov/arcgis/rest/services/ACTIVE_COAL/MapServer/0", { mode: FeatureLayer.MODE_ONDEMAND, outFields:["*"] }); var LQD_Terminated_Permits = new FeatureLayer("https://gis.deq.wyoming.gov/arcgis/rest/services/LQD_PERMIT_DATA/MapServer/2", { mode: FeatureLayer.MODE_ONDEMAND, outFields:["*"] }); var LQD_DISTRICTS = new FeatureLayer("https://gis.deq.wyoming.gov/arcgis/rest/services/LQD_PERMIT_PUBLIC/MapServer/12", { mode: FeatureLayer.MODE_ONDEMAND, "opacity" : 0.5, outFields:["*"] }); var imageParameters = new ImageParameters(); imageParameters.format = "jpeg"; //set the image type to PNG24, note default is PNG8. //Takes a URL to a non cached map service. var dynamicMapServiceLayer = new ArcGISDynamicMapServiceLayer("https://gis.deq.wyoming.gov/arcgis/rest/services/LQD_PERMIT_PUBLIC/MapServer", { "opacity" : 0.5, "imageParameters" : imageParameters }); //add the legend map.on("layers-add-result", function (evt) { var layerInfo = arrayUtils.map(evt.layers, function (layer, index) { return {layer:layer.layer, title:layer.layer.name}; }); if (layerInfo.length > 0) { var legendDijit = new Legend({ map: map, layerInfos: layerInfo }, "legendDiv"); legendDijit.startup(); } }); map.addLayers([LQD_DISTRICTS, LQD_Active_Permits, Coal_Boundary,LQD_County_Permits, LQD_Terminated_Permits, dynamicMapServiceLayer]); }); </script>

I would add that we use a secure and a non secure web adaptor simultaneously. All of our external traffic has to use the secure web adaptor to access the map services.

Once you make your selection, just right click on the selected layer and choose Data>Export Data. This will let you save the selected features as a new shapefile.

You will want to work with your IT folks to insure the following firewall ports are open for the server to function properly and allow your services to be visible. Firewall ports needed to connect to SDE 10.2 +
