21st September 2007, Cambridge, UK.  1Spatial will be demonstrating the first results from the AdV ATKIS Generalisation (ATKIS-GEN) project, at the 2007 INTERGEO conference and trade fair for geodesy, geoinformation and land management. The conference is being held in Leipzig, Germany, from 25th to 27th September.

The ATKIS-GEN project aims to develop a software system that automates production of data, from BasisDLM (1:25,000) to DLM50 (1:50,000), and consequently the digital topographic maps DTK50 (1:50,000). 

1Spatial are leading the way in the automatic generalisation of the German AAA model and are excited to be presenting the result from the project at INTERGEO. 1Spatial will present an automated BasisDLM to DLM50Model and Cartographic generalisation workflow, based on Radius Clarity, incorporating GML3 (NAS) import/export. The resulting data will then be exported via a GML3 transfer format (NAS) to the STAR-APIC’s Mercator package for final cartographic manipulation and publishing.

1Spatial can be found at the event in Hall 1 at stand B1-207. 1Spatial are delighted to be sharing the stand with two members of the 1Spatial Community, CISS TDI and STAR-APIC.

Joachim Figura, CEO, CISS TDI, commented: 

“INTERGEO, the international meeting point for the geo industry, is of utmost importance for presenting new tools and developments concerning the standardised availability of geodata as an economic good. We are pleased to join with 1Spatial and STAR-APIC, as leading companies in this market segment to show our latest developments and future trends. CISS TDI’s geodata translation tool CITRA, as the leading product in Germany, demonstrates the cooperation between CISS TDI, 1Spatial and STAR-APIC as one component to address the international market.”

Alan Phillips, CEO of STAR-APIC, added:

“STAR-APIC is proud to join CISS TDI and 1Spatial for this international rendez-vous at INTERGEO, where we will introduce to the German market the concept of Geospatial Hub, a data warehouse system aimed at managing GIS data interoperability, and the latest developments of our Mercator platform, the cartographic publishing leading solution, MercatorDB, taking benefit from the 1Spatial’s Radius Clarity.”

Graham Stickler, Product and Marketing Director at 1Spatial commented:

 ”We are delighted to be partnering with CISS TDI and STAR-APIC and showing the latest results of our generalisation solution for the German market at INTERGEO.  We continue to lead the way in supplying state-of-the-art generalisation tools, working with 8 of the 16 German Lander. This is a major implementation utilising the new AAA data model, providing automation and standardisation within the cartographic map production process.”
