Summary
In this chapter, we introduced the ESRI mapplet project, a Professional Services project being run at ESRI using their ArcGIS Server mapping software and ICONIX modeling to define the product in terms of use cases. We also showed the initial rough draft of requirements and the use case model for this project, and we spent some time upfront creating a domain model. The domain model provides a project glossary, so that all subsequent artifacts (use cases, design models, etc.) can be written using consistent names. We also gave an overview of the ArcGIS Server platform and indicated which parts of its APIs the mapplet will use.
For the rest of Part 2, we’ll continue to follow the mapplet project and show how the team got from use cases to code over the first two successive releases.
