GLOBAL GEOMATICS: Ideal technology to geopower vertical Web portals and ASP's
The rapidly-evolving realities (read acquisitions, shakedowns and cash-crunch) of the Net marketplace
means that large and not-so-large navigation hubs whose business model initially targeted the broad-based
Internet market must now set their sights on successfully building strength in specific topic categories.
As each portal concentrates on specific niches, focused enhancement services and applications become
crucial to boosting usage among selected audience segments and benefiting from category-specific
merchandising. Geographic and spatially referenced information availability is one such added-value
proposition; and Global Geomatics' Geographic Library Transfer Protocol (GLTP) for accessing,
diffusing, and interacting in real time with all existing formats of geographic data (maps, drawings, photo
and photogrammetric images) stands alone in its capacity to deliver.
Commercial transportation-network and routing information; highway and weather conditions; real estate,
agricultural landholdings and residential localization; precision farming and agrobusiness planning; tourism,
entertainment, and leisure activities resource availability; retailer geographic locations; airline and
cruise-ship travel scheduling and reservation; these are a handful of the sectors in which rapid, efficient
delivery of geodata using GLTP can generate revenue for vertical Web portals. In today's competitive
e-marketplace, more and more users demand, and portals cannot afford not to provide such valuable
information.
The brainchild of President and CEO Gilles Clément, Global Geomatics developed the
geomatics-industry benchmark GLTP in order to give users instant access (in any native format and in real
time over the Web) to voluminous, complex, and heterogeneous spatially referenced data stores. The
company is now widely known as one of the top six international GIS developers, is rated among the top
eight in geosoftware-component conception, design and deployment, is one of the top ten in the fields of
IS integration (notably among ASP's), and is one of the best web-mapping-server editors.
Global Geomatics GLTP-based software products and components drive more than three-quarters of all
current Geographic Information Systems (GIS); they geoenhance™ the most important database
management and ERP systems currently in operation (Oracle8i™ and Informix); they provide
mission-critical cross-enterprise efficiency to currently operating (plus several in development)
international ASP's in both Europe and North America; they are used in the most advanced armed-forces
reconnaissance and surveillance computer systems of the Canadian Department of National Defense; and
Global Geomatics software is a crucial component of both today's and the next generation of wireless,
mobile computing and telecommunications devices, systems, and networks.
