Getmapping for Bath & NE Somerset

The Getmapping Integrated Solution solves many of the problems faced by Local Authorities today by providing a set of complimentary services and facilities under a flexible and affordable revenue model. 

GMIS consists of five modules. Firstly a Spatial Data Warehouse, which provides a single, secure repository for the Council's spatial and non-spatial data that facilitates greater sharing. Secondly, a secure easy-to-use web-based GIS and mapping application, called District Online. This provides access to the complete range of council maps, data layers, NAG addresses and aerial photography to anyone working anywhere for the Council. 

Thirdly there's hosting of heavy-use data including Ordnance Survey maps and aerial photography for the whole of the country. Getmapping manages the servers and takes care of the update process. Locally created data is automatically synced on a daily basis. Next there is Parish Online, a web GIS interface that allows Local Authorities and Parish Councils to share information online. Finally there's data maintenance, which is included in the subscription price. Getmapping will undertake to re-fly aerial photography for the region on a three year cycle. No more commissioning or procurement, just new imagery on a regular basis. This can be extended to include other datasets such as height data, CIRs and obliques.
