Make Every Byte Count

GIS is part of a complete information technology picture. Spatial Focus helps maximize the return on your information investment by incorporating data integration at every stage of development. We focus on simple, effective technologies that will last years, not months.

Connect to Your GIS

Have trouble meeting your "industrial strength" GIS needs? Identification numbers used in geography can be long, difficult to type, and even harder to pick off a menu. Barcodes can be an answer. They're proven, cheap reliable technology that everyone can use. Connected with a map server, barcodes can make your GIS instantly available throughout your organization.

XML: Text Works

Imagine that someone offered to make all the technologies you value speak the same language, from your cell phone to your office computer network. Now imagine that you could make sense of that language, too, so that if something broke you could actually fix it. And you could make it do things just for you. That's XML. The impact of text-based web technologies is taking hold everywhere. Let Spatial Focus make it work for you: tie together geographic and corporate data, coax incompatible databases into conversation, and bring life to those "legacy" databases.

Cost-Effective Technologies

One reason the world wide web has spread is that its basic working parts are cheap and reliable. While there are many tools and techniques that have parted ways with this philosophy, Spatial Focus has remained focused on the published standards and open technologies that are at the core of reliability. Free and open source technologies can help your GIS remain cost-effective, open and maintainable.
