Configuring the EFS application for ArcGIS extension

Arcgis Collector

To link ArcGIS and the EFS software, you must have basemap data for ArcGIS. UITSGIS suggests you usethe Indianapolis vector data provided by the Indiana Spatial DataPortal. You can find the Indianapolis vector data at:

You will need to match the projection and units of both the base mapdata and the Pictometry imagery. To set up the EFS software for theArcGIS extension, follow these steps:

Arcgis.com
  1. Open your Pictometry EFS software, select File, and thenselect New Workspace.
  2. In the Load Base Map window that appears,'INMARI04-093-WHS' should be highlighted. Click OK.
  3. Verify that 'Marion-IN.pmi' is highlighted. ClickOK.
  4. Select File, and then Save Workspace as. Saveyour workspace in the c:/Program Files/Pictometryfolder with the filename Pictometry.pwf.

    Note: You must name your workspace Pictometry.pwf for the ArcGIS extension to work.

  5. Select Edit, and then Change Units. If you are usingthe Indianapolis vector data, click the Set Coordinate Systembutton. Input the following parameters:
    • US State Plane 1983
    • Indiana Eastern Zone
    • NAD 1983
    • US Survey Feet

    To close the window, click OK twice.
