ESRI ArcGIS ERG Tools

Hello,

I have downloaded the ERG2012 geoprocessing tools from github at https://github.com/Esri/solutions-geoprocessing-toolbox

After running the tools and sharing as a service, I have a geoprocessing service that I would like to use in a Geocortex workflow.  I'm wondering if anyone has done this already and if they would like to share their workflow.  I have an old ERG2008 workflow that I am manipulating but I'm running into some issues.  Specifically, I am having trouble converting the string input for windbearing to a long integer value that the geoprocessing service is expecting.  If it helps, I can post my xml code.

Any help or insight is appreciated.

Thanks,

Sharon
