IDV Solutions releases SpatialWiki

IDV Solutions today released SpatialWiki, a
collaborative site to create, store, and share geographic information using IDV’s rich internet application (RIA) technology. SpatialWiki is an Enterprise 2.0 offering for visual collaboration, deployable within SharePoint or with cloud-based storage. The wiki offers users a number of great benefits including the ability to create custom geospatial shapes on a map, search and view shared geography, and export files.

SpatialWiki, today released in Beta, is built on Silverlight 2.0 and Virtual Earth, and stores user-contributed data in the cloud via Microsoft’s new SQL Server Data Services. The wiki incorporates fast graphic rendering and best practices for map isplay, allowing users
to draw and edit map content and output shape files as KML or as spatially enabled SQL Server 2008 scripts. Innovations like the globe rotation option provide another degree of freedom for navigation and drawing.

“We are excited to offer this visual wiki experience as a complement to Visual Fusion® or as a standalone product,” says Ian Clemens, Chief Technology Officer at IDV Solutions. “The utilization in SpatialWiki of new cloud-based technologies from Microsoft offers our customers a new level of IT agility.”

IDV Solutions is pleased to offer a public Beta of this Enterprise 2.0 product. See the website below.

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…
