Implementation Customizations (optional)
Implementation component acts as translator between the GIS geodatabase (with a client-specific data model) and the Minerville-MultiSpeak data model format required by Network Adapter.
Data is exported from your geodatabase by the Analysis API, transformed by the Implementation, and passed to the analysis engine in XML format. Network Adapter-MultiSpeak requires XML in a MultiSpeak-Minerville format. If the data in the geodatabase changes, events are passed from the Analysis API to the Implementation, so the Implementation can request a new export.
It is during this portion of the Network Adapter process that you can modify transformation information. For example, you can modify the Transformation DTD to reflect the object names used in your data model. You may also create custom transformation steps that execute before or after the XML is transformed.
