ArcGIS Server is the leading software for developing both web and mobile GIS applications. There are a number of programming languages that you can use to develop applications with ArcGIS Server including JavaScript, Flex, and Silverlight. However, the ArcGIS API for JavaScript is the preferred way of developing your custom applications for ArcGIS Server since it can be used for both web and mobile application development. Its easy to use and doesnt require the use of a browser plugin.
This tutorial-based guide provides you with hands-on experience in developing custom web and mobile ArcGIS Server applications with step-by-step style exercises. Along with introducing you to the HTML/CSS/JavaScript technology stack, you will learn to add intuitive geographic layers of information to your map, interactive query and display of spatial data, add user interface widgets, access geoprocessing tasks, and many more in your own web and mobile GIS applications.
With this practical, hands-on guide, you will be able to develop fully-functional online GIS applications with ArcGIS Server using the ArcGIS API for JavaScript. After creating your own map, you will explore how to add geographic layers from a variety of sources including tiled and dynamic map services, add graphics to the map, and stream geographic features to the browser using a FeatureLayer.
Most applications include the specific functionalities implemented by ArcGIS Server as tasks. Youll learn how to use the various tasks provided by ArcGIS Server including spatial and attribute queries, identification of features, finding features by attribute, and more. Geocoding and geoprocessing tasks are covered in-depth to help you accomplish your task in GIS. Finally, youll learn just how easy it is to integrate ArcGIS.com content into your custom developed applications.
This comprehensive guide quickly advances through probing programmatic techniques for building web and mobile GIS applications which will make application development a lot easier!

Currently, he focuses on ArcGIS scripting with Python and the development of custom ArcGIS Server web and mobile applications using JavaScript. He is the author of Programming ArcGIS 10.1 with Python Cookbook .
Eric has a bachelor's degree in Geography from Texas A&M University and a master's degree in Applied Geography with a concentration in GIS from Texas State University.
Pouria Amirian is a GIS/Computer Science lecturer, researcher, and developer working with the National University of Ireland, Maynooth. In addition to his collaboration with the University of Ireland, he has several scientific and academic collaborations with world class universities in Germany, France, and the UK. He is the author of the best-selling book on ArcGIS development, Beginning ArcGIS for Desktop Development using .NET , published by Wiley in 2013. He has extensive experience in the design and development of various kinds of small-scale to enterprise-distributed, service-oriented (geospatial) information systems. Dr. Amirian is currently interested in cutting-edge research and development projects on (geospatial) Big Data and NoSQL databases and has recently been a technical editor of several books on the mentioned topics. He can be contacted at <>.
I would like to thank my friend, Dr. Majid Farahani, for his support, understanding, and encouragement during my career. My thanks also goes to the author and the technical review team for making this book a fun project.
Ken Doman has worked with computers for most of his life and still likes to keep himself occupied with them in his free time. He graduated with a bachelor's degree in Biology from Rice University. From there, he moved from one field to another, until he was asked to launch a GIS department for his hometown in Jacksonville, Texas. He started with a shoebox full of notebook paper for an address database. Before long, he published the first online map of his community. He's been hooked on publishing web maps ever since.
Ken currently works as a GIS web developer at Bruce Harris and Associates, a private company that provides GIS services and products for municipalities across the United States. There, he works on an array of technologies, helping county and city governments make their data available on web browsers.
This is the first book Ken has worked on, but he has high hopes that it won't be his last.
I would first like to thank my wife, Luann, for her love and support. Her love for words inspired me to take this responsibility seriously. I'd also like to thank God, without whom nothing is possible. I would also like to thank Bruce Harris and Associates, the City of Plantation, Florida, and the City of Jacksonville, Texas, for giving me the opportunity to learn more about GIS, which helped me grow in my career.
Joseph Saltenberger works as a data analyst at a GIS software company that specializes in spatial decision support systems for fire and EMS departments. He graduated from the Humboldt State University with a B.S. in Natural Resources (GIS and Remote Sensing emphasis), and the San Diego State University with an M.S. in Geography (GIScience emphasis). His academic and professional career has focused on using GIS for data management and analysis, and for developing custom GIS applications.

ArcGIS Server is the predominant platform used to develop GIS applications for the Web. There are a number of programming languages you can use to develop applications with ArcGIS Server, including JavaScript, Flex, and Silverlight. JavaScript has become the preferred language for developing applications on this platform, since it can be used for both web and mobile applications and doesn't require the installation of a plugin for the application to be used in a browser. Flex and Silverlight both fall short as languages for mobile development and both require the use of a plugin for the application to run in a browser.
