The communication between the external system and the VertiGIS Integrator is processed via Service Endpoints.

The VertiGIS Integrator processes the data through an XML processor.

•Inbound: The incoming data is received via an Inbound Endpoint and converted to an XML format, then transformed via XSLT to UT XML. This UT XML is then converted into create/update/delete operations on the ArcSDE GIS database.

•Outbound: The VertiGIS Integrator detects changes in the GIS database and converts this data into the UT XML format. The UT XML is transformed with XSLT into the target format and then exported via the outbound endpoint to the external system.

To configure the Service Endpoints, open the VertiGIS Integrator and navigate to the Settings tab> Service Endpoints.
