1. Challenge to overcome
NISC needed a viewer that would display both the document image and associated meta data in the same SharePoint window for our customer, NOAA's NCDC (National Climatic Data Center). SharePoint out of the box relies on the user's default image viewer which would have opened in a different window and not displayed the metadata. The NCDC SharePoint system hosts over 54 million environmental, climate and weather documents/images for the Climate Database Modernization Program (CDMP) at NCDC.
2. Daeja’s solution
We integrated ViewONE into SharePoint as a Web Part. This provided a solution to viewing image files such as TIFF and PDF, and their associated metadata, within a single window. Based on discussions with Microsoft, this is the first instance of a Java applet being deployed as a SharePoint Web part.
3. Benefits to National Interest Security Company
With ViewONE, NCDC SharePoint users can view any image type without having a viewer application installed on their PC. The fact that ViewONE is Java-based and hosted on our servers provides NCDC users with a consistent viewing experience that we control. We don't have to depend on users having particular viewing software installed locally on their PC. NCDC was very satisfied with the use of ViewONE in our legacy product, which SharePoint replaced.
