"The addition of GTViewer into the FME hub allows this viewer and application platform to be deployed by anyone using ESRI, Intergraph, Smallworld, Oracle, or any other GIS system supported by FME," said Dale Lutz, Vice President of Development for Safe Software.
"This breakthrough for GTViewer makes it part of an enterprise solution. No user is trapped with the software suite from a single vendor," said Graphic Technologies, Inc. consultant Charlie Marlin. "With support through FME, the gold standard for geospatial data integration, GTViewer becomes part of an enterprise solution. Data is seamlessly moved to the field for markup, then the markups can be taken right back into the GIS."
Both a reader and writer for GTViewer are available inside the FME Suite 2005 (Professional Edition and higher). Data from any format read by FME can be written to a data set that GTViewer can display. Conversely, any redlines made by someone within GTViewer (whether graphics, tabular, or both) can be written back to the format used by the host GIS, or to any other format written by FME.
