Workflow novaFACTORY: geodata management - cataloguing - exploitation - dissemination

 

Spatial Data Management for your Enterprise
As applications for geodata have grown, so too has the need to efficiently administer them. Many businesses, whether government departments or private companies, are faced with the complex task of managing geospatial data from a range of sources and formats located throughout their enterprise and making this information accessible for collaboration across the organization in a meaningful way.

novaFACTORY is the solution to this challenge. It brings geodata together and eliminates barriers to spatial data usability by automatically uniting disparate data and combining them into one spatial database. It underpins the development of Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI) through proven technology, allowing for a better management of key spatial data sets and thus optimizing business processes. novaFACTORY enterprise class technology is robust, flexible, easy-to-use, and scalable and is designed for seamlessly integrating large geographical data from many different sources, e.g. topographic maps, digital surface models, aerial photographs or 3D building models.

Why Geodata Management?
Your company needs geodata management if you

  • manage multiple spatial types and data formats
  • have extremely large spatial data
  • have geographically distributed spatial data
  • have incomplete or unprocessed spatial data
  • have many geographically distributed users
  • cannot find the data you need or you waste valuable time downloading and converting datasets
  • continuously receive data from 3rd party external sources which must be integrated into your spatial information system
  • keep faxing hard copies and burning CDs to publish your data to those who need it urgently
