New USGIF Member, VoyagerGIS, Presents Key Software at GEOINT 2010
Voyager is a powerful search and indexing software that allows users to quickly find spatial data resources on their desktops, servers or across the Internet, using simple intuitive Web-style searches. This helps organizations to catalogue and better manage their data, improve productivity by reducing the time spent searching for information, and reduce data and storage costs by eliminating duplicate datasets. “Data can be quite expensive for organizations to acquire and maintain, especially if it’s not reused or fully leveraged across the enterprise,” said Alex Miller, president, ESRI Canada. “Organizations need to know what data they have and where it’s stored, and make this information easily accessible to all their users. Voyager is an excellent tool for obtaining a comprehensive view of an organization’s data resources within and outside their GIS, and makes it easy for users to find the information they need to be productive.” Check out more here and see them in person at booth #716.
