Concluding remarks

• For FIG members
• Open for observers

ESRI will present a two part workshop, with different topics in the morning and afternoon:

• Part I - ESRI GIS Technology for Map Production - AM Session 10:00-12:30
• Part II - ESRI GIS Technology for Surveying - PM Session 14:00-17:30

In the morning, we invite mapping agencies to see our solutions:

Mapping organizations are under pressure to respond to numerous challenges: budget constraints, demands for new data products, faster turnaround times on existing data products, increased competition, and higher costs. Efficient data collection and management, data and cartographic editing and data dissemination, through an effective workflow, enable organizations to meet these demands. This workshop will present tools and solutions in these areas, demonstrate the new cartographic representations in ESRI’s ArcGIS software, and show how we are marrying the science of GIS and the art of cartography.

Registration:

• Free of charge – lunch and two coffee breaks are included
• Participation is limited to 30 participants
• Separate registration required

ESRI will present a two part workshop, with different topics in the morning and afternoon:

• Part I - ESRI GIS Technology for Map Production - AM Session 10:00-12:30
• Part II - ESRI GIS Technology for Surveying - PM Session 14:00-17:30

In the afternoon:

GIS (Geographic Information Systems) were initially built for specific functions to support the entry and editing of parcel information, managing electric networks, land use mapping, natural resource management, and many others. The data collected for these different customer types was done with the accuracy that was required by the application and organizational needs. Over time, users began to use other layers of GIS, including geodetic and survey control points.

ESRI, through its work with FIG and other prominent survey organizations, set a course to bridge the gap between GIS and Survey. ESRI has added new tools for the improvement of the spatial data in GIS. These new tools employ survey techniques and data; engaging the surveyor into the GIS community. This workshop will discuss how surveyors can leverage GIS, and how the GIS user community will benefit from the services and data of the professional surveyor.

The hosting group of two similar events in Dublin (2004) and Munich (2005) invites you to join the workshop "Quality Management for Geodata". The workshop addresses anyone involved in one or more of the following topics:

1. Redesign and data model harmonisation: Application Redesign and migration of existing GI-databases into a new data model

2. Change of Reference Frame: Introduction of a new spatial reference system and migration of captured geodata

3. Improvement of geometrical Accuracy: Increasing the geometrical quality of existing geo-objects 

We want to share experiences from national mapping organisations, data providers and data users like utility companies. The workshop will have the following agenda:

The workshop enables participants to share experience and benefit from business cases and best practice projects. FIG Commissions 3, 5 and 7 support this workshop.

Further information and registration form is available on the workshop website: .QM4GEODATA.com or by contacting Bernd Stary (bernd.stary@technet-gmbh.com) or Martin Scheu (scheu@grit.de).
