SQL – Server 8.2.9 and should work with the version mentioned before or higher. Working
with an Oracle database is not yet supported, this will be a step for the future.

==Introduction==
To be able to use the OCAD-Server Module you have to install a Postgres SQL – Server.
The version used for development was 8.2.9. You can get Postgres from
[http://www.postgres.org http://www.postgres.org]. The module was developed with a Postgres Server on a Windows
platform. To work with the server module you have to create a user called ocad11 – this is
currently hard coded. As next step you must setup 6 core tables and 3 sequences for the
module and alter the ocad11 user to them.

The collaboration can be achieved either internally (within a company) or distributed over the internet. A VPN connection is recommended. For fieldwork it is also possible to take a part of the map offline and resync the changes with the CSA project after finishing the fieldwork.

This function is only available in the OCAD 12 Enterprise Edition.

The Client Server function is part of the OCAD Enterprise Edition.

Introduction

With the Client Server Architecture (CSA) different user can work simultaneously at the same project. The collaboration can be achieved either internally (within a company) or distributed over the internet. A VPN connection is recommended. For fieldwork it is also possible to take a part of the map offline and resync the changes with the CSA project after finishing the fieldwork. Furthermore it is possible to create base projects and inherit them as basis for other projects. Changes on the base projects affects the inherited projects geometry but not the styling.
