GIS Web Services

GIS Web Services are self-contained application components that can be published or accessed over the World Wide Web. Each performs a specific GIS function as part of a larger web site, portal or business application. Using web protocols including HTTP and XML, you call these services as you need them for your internet site, intranet productivity portals, or work order management systems. We take care of the technical details and operations for you.

End Users can be anywhere in the world and with a browser or thick application client can make requests and receive results of spatial functions.

GISfactory.com has developed a set of GIS Web Services providing mapping and location services for use in web-enabled applications. In addition to dynamic web mapping, which can be integrated into browser and thick client applications, we provide standard back-office components that don't even use maps. For example, your work order application can supply an address and GISfactory will find a representative point on the earth for that address, and lookup which of your service areas it falls in, returning to your application a corresponding key.

GISfactory.com Web Services include:

Dynamic Mapping - Add dynamic mapping to your corporate internet site to show your locations. Incorporate mapping in your call center productivity portal to give your agents more information and more ways to find it.
Address Finder - Find the geographic coordinates of street addresses. Send the request from your application and get an answer back in seconds or pass the answer on to the District Finder.
District Finder - Find which sales territory, risk area, political area, or time zone contains a place or address. Send the answer back to a remote client or application.
Notification Builder - Create a query using your spatial proximity and relationships combined with your business data to build a list of customers to be notified of an event.
