Huge Images? Too Many Users? No Problem!
6 August 2008
The value of using spatial imagery in GIS systems today is unquestionable. Traditional GIS systems are very effective for managing and analyzing vector information but are barely adequate for managing hundreds of gigabytes or terabytes of spatial imagery.
ERDAS Image Web Server (IWS) is a specialized application that quickly and efficiently distributes large volumes of geospatial image data to thousands of concurrent users.

Simplify Your Image Processing and Compression
27 August 2008
Can you quickly and easily color balance, mosaic or orthorectify your imagery? After processing your imagery, how do you then handle large files? This webinar highlights ERDAS ER Mapper, a wizard-based, low cost image processing solution used extensively throughout the extractive industries. With ERDAS ER Mapper, imagery can be quickly enhanced and then be used in GIS, CAD, desktop or server applications. Along with a powerful projections engine, ERDAS ER Mapper also includes a 64-bit compressor, equipped to handle images more than 5 TB in size. Offering unlimited JPEG2000 and ECW compression, you can shrink your image dataset to as little as 5% of its original size, retaining the visual quality. Please join us for this informative webinar and see how ERDAS ER Mapper can simplify your workflow.

The world of IONIC SOFTWARE
We all need a clear real-time vision and understanding of our environment : state agencies and institutions make best use of geospatial information to make the right decisions in terms of national planning and development; earth observation (EO) also requires relevant geodata exchange; even Defense needs it to safeguard public safety. Besides companies increasingly monitor their employee and equipment mobility thanks to similar data.
It is therefore obvious that the need for actually shared geospatial information is critical and reaching such an objective implies as well relevant data as efficient architectures that are genuinely interoperable.
The IONIC RedSpider product line is the most complete suite of interoperable products available today that implement full OGC and ISO architectures out-of-the-box.
INTEROPERABILITY & OPEN STANDARDS
It has been years now that GIS major players try to free themselves from proprietary/close information systems, joining the world of open and genuinely interoperable systems.
Interoperability allows integration of geodata issued by different systems and/or databases. Users can then exploit and share geospatial information over the Internet in an environment that is both open and safe.
Actual interoperability is possible thanks to open standards such as those established and promoted by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC)/ISO .
Interoperable GIS solutions are therefore growingly implemented in information systems of organisations from different activity domains : geodata providers, national geographic institutes, distribution sector, logistics, ministries or local governments, facility management units, agencies active in cultural heritage protection, regional planning and development, environment, spatial industry, disaster management units, defense, etc.
