Users are Ancient Mariners lost and drowned in data. Suggests an alternative to the emphasis on tools; approaches GIS from the point of view of the data and the user.
As data is increasing by terrabytes per day, our ability to find it and process it is limited. Applications and interfaces, management and protection of existing databases and data investments are the key issues. This presentation examines user needs, data strategies and requirements to arrive at an application environment that is dynamic, that uses off-the-shelf products and that integrates all major current GIS technologies in a way that minimizes systems integration costs.
