Missouri GIS Conference 6th Annual Missouri GIS Conference . GIS Implementation 101 for Local Government 2. The Internet has developed into a common computing infrastructure that's easy for all of us to use. Making geographic data, spatial information, attribute tables, documents and true collaboration viable tools in meeting the needs of our end users who expect complete and encompassing information. AutoDesk MapGuide is our gateway to the geographic data.
Spatial data describes where map features are, whereas attribute data describe what they are.
By integrating the SmarTeam Data Management technology into our GIS project we are able to provide a technique to classify information easily and quickly. This allows data developers the ability to maintain control of their own data while distributing it automatically to the people who need it. We will demonstrate capabilities of AutoDesk MapGuide plus the integration with SmarTeam s Data Management tools and show how the web browser has become the portal for the distribution of multiple sources of information. New sources of high-resolution imagery and advances in remote sensing tools, offer the most promising method of building and maintaining the complete geographic information system. Present an overview and tour of the Geography Network, ESRI's collaborative, multi participant system that provides the infrastructure needed for publishing, sharing, and using geographic information on the Internet.
