We’re delighted to sponsor AGI for the second year in a row. It’s been an exciting year for us so we’ve got a lot to display at AGI.
Stand visitors have the chance to find out about the mapping datasets and services available to around 500 organisations as part of the NHS Mapping Agreement. Those interested in crime and community safety will be able to view our web based crime mapping application, originally developed for West Midlands Police, which is attracting considerable interest countrywide in the light of the recent Casey Report. Councils and other organisations with holdings of OS MasterMap can take a look at the new features introduced in SuperpOSe 5.1, including the heralded ability to view historic map data. And, by no means least, everyone has the chance to spot Dotted Eyes’ new MD and other staff in full 80’s get up at the AGI party!
Our GIS specialists are already booking appointments with current and potential customers, so if you are planning to attend and would like to meet up off-stand with one of our experienced advisors please contact the Commercial Team on 01527 556920 or email info@dottedeyes.com.
You are invited to join Safe Software’s UK FME User Group 2008, hosted by Dotted Eyes.
This event is suitable for experienced and novice FME users. GIS professionals who are interested in how the adoption of FME may benefit their organisation are also encouraged to attend. FME is the industry standard platform for translating, transforming and integrating spatial data, offering a complete interoperable solution which eliminates data barriers in organisations and enhances data sharing capabilities.
Session topics include Don Murray, the President of Safe Software, giving an overview of product direction, case studies from FME users, such as the Environment Agency, and a masterclass on the new functionality in FME 2008, given by Dotted Eyes’ FME Certified Trainer. Lunch will provide the opportunity for networking with fellow GIS professionals.
The event will take place at Dotted Eyes Bromsgrove offices from 10.30 am - 3.15 pm.
Register online or call the Commercial Team on 01527 556920 for more information.
Dotted Eyes is sponsoring and exhibiting at Interact 08, the Pitney Bowes MapInfo and Pitney Bowes Group 1 user event, to be held at Birmingham’s NEC on 29th and 30th April.
Charlie Gilbert from Dotted Eyes will be joining West Midlands Police to give a presentation on ‘Safer Neighbourhoods’. West Midlands Police use our ResponseMX web mapping software to power MyNeighbourhood, a website which gives the general public access to crime maps online. These easy to understand maps show the public crime levels and trends whilst polls generate feedback allowing West Midlands Police to identify areas of concern. (more…)
On April 30th, join Safe Software co-founders, Dale Lutz and Don Murray, for an informative 45 minute webinar on FME Server. Through demos and customer stories, you can learn how to:
- Publish FME workspaces to the server so others can access them and run them over the web;
- Offload intensive spatial ETL processing tasks to the server for faster throughput;
- Provide end-users with real-time, self-service access to custom views of your spatial data;
- Distribute spatial data as a streaming or download service.
Register today for the 8AM PDT seminar which equates to 4PM UK time. Joining instructions will be sent by Safe Software nearer the time. Please note this webinar is intended for experienced FME users who have floating licences or at least 5 FME Desktop licences and/or SpatialDirect users.
Stop Press! Dotted Eyes will be running a FME event at our offices in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire on 18th June 2008. Email marketing@dottedeyes.com for more information.

We know that by combining housing data with digital maps you can get an unparalleled picture of your organisation: visualising trends, such as increases in void properties; mapping information pertaining to residents, such as age, income and access to facilities; and even supporting stock acquisition and disposal planning. One of our goals for 2008 is to help more housing associations reap the benefits of this so-called location intelligence. (more…)
