For Spatial Workshop users 1 plus 1 is more than just 2. Through aggregation and transformation of data, like for example globe services, data visualization and earth data, users can create new information and add value to their business processes.
Within Spatial Workshop you create collections of Spatial Business Objects. The properties of these business objects are taken directly from data in one or more data sources or these properties may be derived from the existing data and using one of a set of pre-defined generators.
Some basic generators
Geographic locations from your administrative data (locations from xand y...);
Calculate administrative data from geometric data (area's, length, counts...);
- Business oriented annotations in maps;
Smart links to web pages, etc.
Discover hidden business value
More interestingly you may discover hidden value in your existing data sources, like:
- The location of your customers on the map or on your networks;
- The relationship between data within different systems, like your GIS, SAP, DMS, faults, complaints, etc.;
- Nerworl structures not avaliable in your source data, like network sections, etc.
