Italian Region of Veneto to Build SDI with Intergraph

In addition to providing support for INSPIRE, Intergraph technology also provides support for local SDI directives such as CNIPA (Centro Nazionale per Informatica nella Pubblica Amministrazione) in Italy. Intergraph technology is built on an open architecture that leverages the power of Oracle’s database capabilities, providing a robust and flexible foundation on which the region of Veneto will build its SDI. Intergraph and its partners in this project will also enable users to easily catalog and search for stored information, and will support the use of Web services for the simple publishing, dissemination and display of spatial data.

Many Italian organisations have turned to Intergraph for improved mapping and infrastructure management. For example, Rossi Rilievi Fotogrammetrici, one of Italy’s most prominent aerial photogrammetry organizations, has recently purchased a second Intergraph Digital Mapping Camera (DMC®) to carry out its missions. Additionally, the City of Milan adopted Intergraph technology to integrate cartographic data from disparate systems and better serve the needs of its residents, local businesses and government organizations, while the Italian government is utilizing Intergraph GIS and commercial photogrammetry products to help manage infrastructure and safeguard the Venice lagoon from the rising tides of the Adriatic Sea.
