Lesson Overview
In this module, you will be writing the system requirements for your design including a detailed explanation of the GIS hardware, GIS software, network resources, and Database Design requirements.
Additionally, you will write the enterprise limitations for your design, including the interoperability of the design within an enterprise and cloud system. You will research the enterprise performance considerations, maintenance considerations, and security considerations for your users, to ensure that the users are aware of the limitations of the design.
This module will culminate with a table outlining the hardware and software requirements, an example relational (or simple) database, and an explanation of the enterprise limitations and requirements.
