Smallworld GIS allows its users to build and maintain complex geographic data structures, like utility and telecommunication networks. To support design processes Smallworld GIS is based on its Version Managed Data Store (VMDS).
Spatial Workshop brings the data from the Smallworld VMDS on the desk of virtually everyone in the organization.
Spatial Workshop gives you access to the data in Smallworld VMDS directly. Spatial Workshop allows you to aggregate this data with data from other sources. You can filter the data as you want, you can relate it to other data and view, query and analyze the combined data. You can export or plot data from multiple worlds in Smallworld in one go together with related data.
Direct access to Smallworld version managed data
Spatial Workshop gives users direct access to data stored in Smallworld VMDS, without the need for an extract, transform and load process. VMDS is accessed directly so any changes in the Smallworld GIS environment are reflected directly within Spatial Workshop.
Spatial Workshop users are able to select and navigate (if authorized) through the available versions of data in VMDS without the need for any administrative tasks.
Smallworld data accessed through Spatial Workshop
Integrate Smallworld data and other data into a spatial office application
The unique capabilities of Spatial Workshop to aggregate and restructure spatial information from multiple sources, now allows Smallworld users to use and add value to their data from their Smallworld data store. You can now:
Build applications that present, query, view and analyze data from Smallworld GIS and other sources in one go;
Create Microsoft Office like applications for casual users of spatial information;
Flip through the different versions of data in the Smallworld GIS with a single mouse click;
Directly link Smallworld data with external documents, rasters, maps, schematics, etc. without the need for programming;
Let you staff work with data from multiple sources, like Oracle, ESRI and Smallworld in one single environment;
Present your Smallworld data in professional reports or publish spatial information on the Internet or your local Intranet using KML Export and view this data in Google Earth;
Directly access internal and external world data the Smallworld Version Managed Data Store.,
Central point of access for different types of users to different types of data
Spatial Workshop applications can be configured to use data from Smallworld products, like Physical Network Inventory (PNI), Logical Network Inventory (LNI), Network Resource Manager (NRM), the Oracle Application Initiative (OAI), etc.
Spatial Eye can supply you with pre-configured projects for a range of Smallworld applications.
Use Smallworld data in the field or remote locations
The fact that Spatial Workshop accesses data directly in the Smallworld VMDS means that all the strong features of the Smallworld platform can be supplied to users on different locations, using different physical infrastructures.
Spatial Workshop users with a network connection can fully exploit the strength of Smallworld GIS for distributed data management, like caching.
Spatial Workshop users without network access can be supplied with Smallworld data on basis of advanced Smallworld features, like replication, extract and merge facilities. This means Spatial Workshop users in the field or on remote locations can be supplied with standard replicas, taking away the maintenance burden of complex extract, transfer, load and synchronization procedures.
Analyze, report and present aggregated information
Spatial Workshop's analysis, reporting and printing functions allow the Spatial Workshop users to create professional reports and thematic maps based on Smallworld data combined with data from other sources.
You can now make reports from your Smallworld data of physical networks, combined with logical network data from other sources, like Cramer or your asset management systems.
The advanced filtering functions allow you to present information from the huge databases that you may own, very selectively, precise and in the shape the users expect it.
Pre configured queries and quick finds allow them to quickly get information they regularly need.
Standard features of Spatial Workshop, like Business Relations, allow users to click through related information sets very easily. With one click they can access related documents, record sets, maps, URLs or mail messages.
Data analyzed, sliced and represented in maps, lists and reports
