GeoBase 3.0 introduces exciting new functionality that enables enterprises to do more than ever before with the flexibility, scalability and ease-of use that GeoBase customers have come to expect.
Here's a quick rundown of the new major features:
GeoBase Mobile SDK
Take GeoBase to the field with GeoBase Mobile! The same powerful .NET API that you are used to using on the web, desktop and server is now available for mobile operating systems. Quickly and easily add geospatial functionality, including real-time navigation, to existing line of service applications that your mobile workers depend on. New features include nav-style location selection and 2.5D map views. Overlay custom data sets, leverage traffic flow information and route commercial vehicles all in the palm of your hand or the cab of your truck.
Dynamic Data Sources
Data management has never been easier. GeoBase 3.0 introduces the concept of spatial data repositories. Swap data sets, servers and operation modes on-the-fly, segment your data for individual operations or users and more!
GeoBase Transactional
GeoBase Transactional (GBTx) repositories are read/write spatial data stores which can be queried for a series of conditions that you define. Data access speeds are as fast as ever offering a new level of flexibility and control. Query custom data sets for spatial, temporal or other business rules that you define. Think GeoFencing on steroids!
Another benefit you can realize using this exciting new technology is the ability to make map data edits in the field. Because GeoBase uses a single data format on the server, desktop and mobile platforms, edits made in the field can easily be integrated into the enterprise database back in the shop.
Imagery
GeoBase now has native support for satellite view map styles. GeoBase makes it easy to visualize detailed conditions on the ground through a unique partnership with DigitalGlobe. With one line of code you can quickly and easily add the freshest, high resolution aerial and satellite imagery to your existing GeoBase applications.
Traffic
Native API support for traffic flow and incident data makes it a snap to visualize traffic conditions on a map, get more accurate travel time estimates and find the quickest route during rush hour. GeoBase makes it easy to leverage historical, real-time and or predictive traffic data from all the major commercial traffic data providers. A new traffic data interface also makes it simple to integrate custom traffic data into any routing strategy.
Other enhancements include:
- JavaScript API 2.0 - an all new JavaScript client for GeoStream, faster and easier to use than ever before.
- Improved Geocoding - Find post code centroids based on partial post code input, fully resolve addresses, free form geocoding and improved international geocoding are just a few highlights.
- Constraints Routing - Greatly enhanced routing algorithms offer better than ever support for routing with advanced constraints like traffic, truck (40+ vehicle attributes), time and turn restrictions and more.
- Improved performance and memory usage - GeoBase runs faster than ever and uses less precious system resources.
- Usability - expanded documentation includes more sample code, tutorials and easy-to-understand reference material than ever before.
