ESRI Int'l User Conference Booth 1117 San Diego - July 9, 2001 - Safe
Software, the industry leader in spatial data translation solutions,
announces that it has added support for ESRI's geodatabase data format.
This
solution enables data to be loaded into a geodatabase from over 80
different
data formats supported by Safe's FME products, and also enables data
held in
a geodatabase to be exported in any of these data formats. The
geodatabase
support is available with Safe's Feature Manipulation Engine (FME®),
FME
Objects and SpatialDirect® solutions.
"This is a very significant development for all ESRI ArcGIS customers
since
it greatly simplifies the task of moving data in a diverse set of
formats
both into and out of a geodatabase," said Don Murray, President of Safe
Software Inc.
More About Geodatabase Support
The geodatabase support is built on top of ESRI's COM interface,
enabling
data to be read from or written to a geodatabase interface regardless
of how
the data is stored. A free evaluation of FME with geodatabase support
can
be downloaded at www.safe.com.
More About FME and FME Objects
FME is spatial data translation software providing interoperability
between
many GIS, CAD and database systems from vendors like ESRI, Oracle and
others. FME's data processing environment enables users to perform
many
functions with their data including translation, transformation,
integration, distribution, manipulation, validation, and reclamation.
FME Objects is a solution that enables any functionality available in
FME to
be embedded into a third party spatial application. The key benefit is
that
this allows users of the application to directly read and write data in
many
different formats and coordinate systems. Visit www.safe.com for more
