eMapSite announces Hosted Services Programme
Issue date: 2nd August 2002
eMapSite is now offering discounted hosted services for geographic data to all organisations that are signatories to any Service Level Agreement. This offer covers every organisation within the Civil Service Yearbook as well as every local authority and utility in Great Britain.
SLAs promote the greater use of geographic information across signatory and eligible organisations. Organisations are encouraged to access and use geographic data as much as possible in order to appreciate the genuine value for money that geographic information in general and SLAs in particular represent.
eMapSite’s unique hosted services are a key enabling mechanism in providing organisation wide access and in delivering on these objectives.
Some eligible organisations rarely use geographic data, so hosted data services represent the simplest, swiftest, most cost-effective way to make the most of the various agreements that central government, local government and the utilities (lead respectively by ODPM, IDeA and NJUG) have forged with Ordnance Survey. In accordance with their DNI initiative eMapSite is similarly pleased to be able to offer getmapping aerial photography for the whole of England and Wales within our hosted services programme.
eMapSite’s hosted services are easy to use, offer universal access at reduced cost and are available today. Our existing client base includes the Ordnance Survey and already trials are underway with other eligible organisations.
eMapSite hosted services:
- Allow users to view, browse, print and share geographic data using just a web browser, Word or other Office application (as well as a GIS or CAD system)
- Preclude the need to invest in infrastructure
- Eliminate the resources required for internal distribution
- Provide universal simultaneous access across all offices and departments
- Open up map access to all remote workers at no additional cost
- Reduce downtime and increase productivity
- Are supported by all major GIS
- Frees up staff to explore, exploit and use geographic data
Signatories can achieve the benefits of organisation-wide access to geographic data including Ordnance Survey mapping and getmapping aerial photography from less than £5,000 per annum.
