Scan Utility

The TIBCO OpenSpirit Scan Utility is a separately licensed product that many users of ArcGIS Desktop use in conjunction with the TIBCO OpenSpirit Extension for ArcGIS. It is designed to be run as a scheduled task that can read all the projects in a company's office and maintain a set of feature classes representing the scanned well, seismic, and interpretation data. Feature classes may be created as shape files, file geodatabase, or in ArcSDE.  The features created by the Scan Utility contain a field which has the OpenSpirit datakey A reference to data that resides in a data store that has an OpenSpirit data connector. so a link is maintained back to the original source project.  The output of the scan utility may be added to ArcGIS Desktop and the TIBCO OpenSpirit Extension for ArcGIS may then connect to the original projects to drill down to display additional information or send data selection events OpenSpirit events that contain datakeys (references to data residing in data stores connected to OpenSpirit). A receiving application will normally import and then display the data referenced by the received datakeys. to other OpenSpirit enabled applications.
