AED-SICAD Staff Awarded Safe FME Accreditation

As part of the launch of the new Safe Software’s FME® Certification Program, AED-SICAD software experts have been granted FME Certified Professional designations based on their proven FME expertise.

The Safe Software FME Certification Program is a technical skill credentials program that helps identify high quality, knowledgeable FME consultants and trainers. Requirements to become a FME Certified Professional or FME Certified Trainer have been revised to ensure higher quality applicants. To this end, they need to pass an exam as well as a practical exercise on-site. Accredited individuals must demonstrate deep FME expertise and proven excellence in delivering FME training, support or consulting. Certification is a great way for FME service providers to gain a competitive edge in their industries. It also helps organizations with spatial ETL challenges to easily identify the highest quality consultants and trainers available in their local market.

AED-SICAD has long been among Germany’s largest FME resellers and users. All significant migration methods in the utility industry, as well as in the land management and public sector are based on FME applications. “AED-SICAD has built a strong reputation in the market as FME experts who can tackle projects with massive data requirements”, says Don Murray, President of Safe Software. “In fact, the AED-SICAD experts have built some of the largest FME workspaces we’ve ever seen! This is a true testament to their technical sophistication and deep understanding of spatial ETL.” AED-SICAD has thus acquired an in-depth know-how of the software over the years. With the certification program, this expertise has now also been recognized by the software vendor, Safe Software.

About Safe Software and FME

Established in 1993, Safe Software is the maker of FME, the only true spatial ETL (extract, transform and load) platform that enables organizations to use and leverage spatial data in any format or application. Today, FME is used by thousands of customers in over 116 countries in a wide variety of industries.
FME provides the most extensive format support and powerful transformations to help organizations efficiently address the complete spectrum of spatial ETL tasks - from data translation and transformation to federation and distribution. Used by most GIS, CAD, ETL, and DB vendors, FME has emerged as the de facto integrated spatial ETL solution. FME is available in desktop and server solutions, and is also easily integrated into third-party CAD and GIS solutions, as well as most IT environments.

This Month's Burning Issue...
Each month we select a hot topic and a leading figure in the industry to write about it.
This month's burning issue:

What message are we sending to senior level decision makers about the importance and value of Spatial Data Infrastructure - SDI - if we keep misrepresenting what SDI is or is all about?

In previous editorials in this magazine I have touched on various SDI issues, especially now that the pan-European SDI has achieved a legally mandated status within the European Union's 27 Member States. Yet I fear that the Geographic Information community - or communities, for there are many - continue to… More…
