I am considering implementing ARCGIS server from ESRI with Visual Analytics. I like the visual analytics SAS provides but I also prefer the true GIS environment ESRI provides. My goal is to get these two platforms to work together...Does anyone have any experience they are willing to share about configuring ESRI maps with SAS VA? Does the functionality of ARCGIS translate to the VA environment? Pitfalls?
Thanks for your help.
Hi I have same demand.....

Many Thanks!

Hi , I have configed it sucessfully.
I referenced public ArcGIS Online sample map services that do not require authentication.
Just Follow the step below:
STEP 1 On the Plug-ins tab in SAS Management Console, navigate to Application Management -->Configuration Manager --> SAS Application Infrastructure --> Visual Analytics 7.x. Right-click, and select Properties.
STEP 2 config your ERSI URL on the advanced tab ,and i used "http://services.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services" which is not require authentication. The URL should config in "va.SASGeomapEsriURL".
STEP 3
On the SAS Application Infrastructure node, update the advanced property sas.web.cdps.knownHosts to include the Esri URL.
STEP 4
Restart the web Application server.
In the VA report designer/ explorer ,you can select the map service you want.
For more detailed configuration you can download the VA Administration Guide for your VA version.

Good luck!

I didn't realize they had a "free" set of maps available. I'll be curious to hear any thoughts, reviews, or limitations that you encounter.
Thanks for sharing Roy.
