Crash Magic version 4 & version 5 can take advantage of an ArcGIS Server installation to provide additional functionality in the program This article describes what those features are and what is required to take advantage of them.
Crash Magic, starting with version 5, supports "dynamic collision diagrams". These are diagrams generated by querying an agency ArcGIS server and using the roadway alignments from that server to create the diagram. Without dynamic diagrams, the program will fall back to our standard collision diagrams that do not require any GIS system.
An ArcGIS Server connection configuration is required to identify and then query the services provided by the agency.
This article describes how to export coordinate data from Crash Magic for import into ESRI's ArcMap software.
This article describes the ArcGIS Server requirements for street centerline, geocode/locator and print services, including samples of expected REST API request URLs and JSON responses. These services are required for Crash Magic GIS-based features to work.
Crash Magic GIS Services require spatial database functionality. This article describes requirements for Oracle database servers.
Most fields in the primary study query have either a lookup name or 'none' or !date or !time to reflect the content in the field. This value is used for presenting options for that field in the filter editor and for display of the field on reports. The xCoord and yCoord normalized values use this same value to indicate the geographic coordinate system or projection that the two coordinate fields represent their values in.
