11 World Tour at Headquarters

This approach has resulted in a comprehensive product line-up that can handle the entire geospatial workflow from beginning to end with seamless transition between steps, authoring data sets from raw data, managing extensive volumes of data, connecting users so they can share and collaborate, and delivering information to other users and organisations.

The product management team introduced attendees to the new ERDAS 2011 software release, with an overview of the significant changes that took place across the entire product portfolio, details about changes to individual products, and demonstrations of software features in action.

Key product demonstrations included the new imagery analysis workflows in ERDAS IMAGINE 2011 and the stereo visualisation and 3D capabilities that ERDAS Extensions for ArcGIS bring to the ArcGIS 10 platform.

The most demanding image analysts, including those in the defence and intelligence community, will benefit from new tools and an enhanced interface in ERDAS IMAGINE 2011, designed for quick and easy creation of presentation products. The improved workflow offers new report templates with elements (labels, scale bar, north arrow, coordinates, etc.) that update automatically based on the imagery loaded into the template. Many of the standard templates include an auto-generated country map that clearly indicates the location of the imagery. Additionally, users can annotate imagery with text tools that work similarly to the ubiquitous Microsoft Office and easily create inset views that highlight specific areas with greater detail. Once reports are complete, a single click exports them to Microsoft PowerPoint, Word, or JPEG.

"ERDAS designed the 11 World Tour to benefit our users, enabling them to experience the software, ask questions, and communicate their future needs," said Joel Campbell, President, ERDAS."Users are the center of everything we do at ERDAS, so every opportunity to meet with them face-to-face is also an invaluable experience for us. As they discuss trends and developments in the industry, contribute important ideas and feedback about the features that piqued their interest and features that would make their daily workflows even more productive and cost effective, they're educating us and shaping the evolution of the ERDAS portfolio."
