Delegates discovered how OS MasterMap, (the new, highly detailed street level map product from Ordnance Survey), can be handled by all types and size of user using Cadcorp software.
An introduction to Cadcorp mSIS (mobile Spatial Information System). PocketPC based, mSIS is an effective way of managing data capture in the field and a platform to work effectively with Cadcorp SIS and other vendors GIS products.
How the Web has been used by many Cadcorp customers to effectively distribute geographic information around the enterprise.
A comprehensive presentation of the highly regarded Cadcorp SIS - Spatial Information System software family. The software family that is certified OpenGIS compliant; reads over 50 formats 'out of the box' without translation; shares the same source code, sports a common interface and is fully interoperable.

Delegates included those from government, local government, emergency services, software houses and ports authorities. Ordnance Survey provided a speaker for each venue and the final event, in Southampton, was held in the Ordnance Survey Business Centre.

"Dublin was a particularly memorable event", stated Martin McGarry, Head of Sales, Cadcorp. "It was our first outing of this type in Ireland and we were very impressed by the level of turnout, interest and quality of delegate that made the trip to see us. Looking at all the Road Shows, it was an excellent way to spread the word about Cadcorp. It was clear from delegate feedback that the event was valued. Subjects such as OS MasterMap, Web-Based GIS, mobile data capture and GIS interoperability are at the forefront of the GIS technical agenda and are important to many users of geographic information", he added.
