Prerequisites

Spectrum Spatial Analyst requires Spectrum Technology Platform versions 2020.1 with Spatial and Routing Modules installed and licensed. Spectrum should already be installed and working and be accessible to the server on which Spectrum Spatial Analyst is being installed.

Note: Spectrum Spatial Analyst installer requires that the Basic authentication is enabled on Spectrum Spatial Server. After installation, the Basic authentication can be disabled if required. To disable it, see Disabling Basic Authentication section in the Spectrum Spatial guide. Disabling Basic Authentication.

Analyst can also be deployed to the same server as Spectrum if desired (subject to server requirements).

Note: In both cases we recommend Spectrum is fully patched.
Note: Spectrum Spatial needs a license file to be applied after Spectrum is installed and before it can be used by Spectrum Spatial Analyst.
Spectrum Spatial Analyst 2020.1 also supports the Spectrum Spatial Map Uploader utility. While the older uploader can be used, it is recommended that all customers upgrade to the new version of the uploader to make use of full support for label layers and layer friendly names.
Note: The Spectrum Spatial Map Uploader utility requires MapInfo Professional 17.0 64-bit or higher.

Once Spectrum is installed you will as a minimum need to create one named connection in Spectrum using the Spectrum Spatial Manager. The named connection is used by the map uploader to locate the data referenced in the map uploader. Spectrum Spatial Manager can be accessed from the Spectrum landing page under Spectrum Spatial > Utilities > Spatial Manager. The Map Uploader can be downloaded from Spectrum Spatial > Utilities > Map Uploader.
