Hey Dody, We are exploring this option now as we too are Laserfiche user. We are looking into the Laserfiche Toolkit which (we hope) would allow us to send a SQL statement over to Laserfiche and pull back the documents as selected on the ArcGIS map. We are pursuing this through ArcServer as a web service as we are trying to move away from Desktop solutions. We have set up common keys between the GIS and the indexes in Laserfiche so in theory it should be fairly straightforward, but like I said we are just begining to explore our options. It does sound like the vendor is trying to lock you into ongoing fees.... -David City of Encinitas GIS ... View more

Hi Nick, We have been using the Fabric since the begining (9.2 sp3 I think it was). We did not migrate any data, we cogo'd everthing in from the source documents. For centerline easements, we will mark the traverse as 'Unclosed = True' if we don't take the time to build them into a polygon - you are correct, sometime this can be problematic. Having the width provides a way of documenting the width when the polygon is not built out. Width was also added for end user application purposes. There are bugs for sure!! We work around them the best we can, I would not go into production until Sp 1 is released. There are outstanding issues we need to resolve with ESRI but I'm waiting to get SP1 to see what issues might get cleared up with that first. Regards, David ... View more

The City of Encintas is managing all easements and other encumbrances in the Fabric as Polygons. It is generally working quite well. We have added a few exteded attributes such as Easement width, Recording Number, and a "Grant To" field. If you have specific questions we could talk or post any specific questions to this forum. Thanks & Good Luck! David ... View more

At v.10.0 PARCEL EDITOR the editing experience is VERY slow.... almost to the point where you want to throw your computer.... 😞 We did not experience this kind of performance degradation at 9.3.1. I cannot wait for SP1 - i hope it addresses performance and a whole host of other issues!!!! ... View more
