Don Murray, Co-Founder of Safe Software, who was described as ‘fantastic, approachable and enthusiastic’ will be joining us once again to give a lively overview of FME 2010.

Over 100 attendees joined us in 2009, and all of them rated the event as being excellent or very good in terms of usefulness. The event is suited to existing users, and those who want to find out more about FME before purchasing.

This year, the event is flanked by optional training on FME Desktop (£800 ex VAT for 2 days)  and FME Server (£400 ex VAT for 1 day).

We hope to see you there!

ScalerMap enhances OS VectorMapLocal – a flexible data set based on the most detailed mapping available from Britain’s national mapping agency. This enables precise and rapid location of incidents.

Dotted Eyes converts the data set supplied by Ordnance Survey into popular formats, ready for use in GIS or CAD software. Cartographic styling is provided for widely-used GIS and web mapping systems. This unique approach saves time and money in translation and maintenance.

ScalerMap is designed for use in web mapping and GIS or CAD software. Its styling is consistent throughout a wide range of scales, from 1:1,000 to 1:1,000,000. The cartography displays as much information as possible while ensuring the map is easily legible. Its appearance is readily configurable to suit particular applications.

·         ScalerMap Tiled Service Processes the exact area you require, made up of 5km square tiles. You can benefit from a single point of contact, because Dotted Eyes can supply ScalerMap, with licensing options from a single user to a corporate licence. We’ll obtain OS VectorMap Local data on your behalf and you’ll receive the finished product ready to use. Alternatively if you already have the OS data set, we can load and enhance all your tiles.

·         ScalerMap Custom Service Combines all the tiles covering an area such as the Government Office Regions or Ambulance Services in England. Building numbers are added, based on the National Land and Property Gazetteer (NLPG) or the OS MasterMap Address Layer (AL2), using a fle of points provided by the customer. In the custom service we can produce both vector fles and the raster images which are required by certain Command and Control systems for the fastest possible drawing speed.

As part of our loading service, value-added features are created, including cartographic hachures for slopes and colour-coded areas for roads, railway track beds and tunnels.

1 day Introduction to MapInfo for Church of England

This one day training course is aimed at staff who are new to using MapInfo Professional. The course data and examples have been specifically designed to easily demonstrate how MapInfo Professional can be used by diocesan staff.  The course covers a range of modules which help a new user of MapInfo get to grips with the suite of functionality offered within this powerful GIS. Using our proven consultative experience and strong partnerships with the CofE we have developed a course which has been tailored to utilise CofE datasets and examples which delegates will find invaluable.

1 day MapInfo Advanced for Church of England

This one day training course builds on the techniques covered within the introductory course,  and helps build your confidence in undertaking more advanced functionality within MapInfo Professional. The course covers a range of modules from advanced digitising and object editing to advanced thematic mapping techniques. Using our proven consultative experience and strong partnerships with the CofE we have developed a course which has been tailored to utilise CofE datasets and examples which staff will find invaluable.

They are looking for help with digitising and naming. I’ve just georeferenced a few scanned paper maps using the Relief Map Warper which are being used as a base for digitising. More information can be found here: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/WikiProject_Haiti#Data_collection.

*April - September 2009

Now we’d like to explain to you how we think mapping can be used to help achieve the higher scores you need to secure additional funding. We are not experts in commissioning per se, but we have real expertise in changing the way organisations engage with public and partners, through data sharing, and this has real relevance to WCC.

We’d appreciate 30 minutes of your time at a webinar on Tuesday 10th November at 11.30 AM to give you an overview of our finding.This is not a product pitch - just us sharing our new understanding, and our expertise. In return we welcome your input to help us tailor a solution, all suggestions are welcome.

I hope you will be able to join us. To do so, simply register here and we’ll send you login instructions a few days prior to the webinar.
