New Portal for Stanfords

  11/05/2009
Infoterra has developed and delivered a new Portal to power Stanfords Business Mapping\'s online capability. This Portal for Stanfords Business Mapping, a retail supplier of maps and map data, will give their customers easy access to a wide range of geospatial data - maps for planning applications, large/small scale map data, aerial photography and height data - via one online resource.
 

 

Building on the experience of Infoterra operating and hosting Stanfords GeoStore for over two years, and by using the latest technologies, the Portal will deliver more functionality and a simple four-step buying process. It offers detailed searching - down to a specific address, a large preview window, more navigation & selection tools, as well as a sophisticated measuring and annotation capability. The portfolio of data products has also been extended to include OS MasterMap in both print and vector formats, and will be further augmented over the coming months.

Many planning applications, of which there are over 750,000 submitted each year in England & Wales, require a scaled map with the property or properties in question highlighted. Stanfords, an accredited partner of the Government's Planning Portal, can ensure that Local Authority requirements are met by both planning professionals and first-time applicants, as this new Portal enables easy access to up-to-date maps and aerial photography of the correct area and scale.

The Portal takes advantage of the latest web-based technologies to provide the user with a range of tools to highlight boundaries, building footprints, planned extensions and access routes, give precise scaling measurement and annotate images where needed. So no need for felt-tip pens, as highlighted maps can be saved in a variety of friendly formats, including Word and pdf, for printing or including in an electronic application. The Portal makes the end-to-end process fast and easy for users - no specialist GIS knowledge or software is needed.
