XMap GIS Software can help busy environmental planners easily build compelling site assessment projects against a background of DeLorme topographic map data and aerial imagery. XMap Forms (sold separately) support accurate and fast GPS data collection. Send your field agents into the field to indentify critical habitat or inventories. Regulatory specialists, biologists, wetland scientists, water resource specialists and more can optimize environmental planning and decision-making through advanced yet affordable GIS data layering and GPS navigation tools. At last, GIS capabilities are achievable within your budget - no waiting or extensive, expensive training required.
XMap for Natural Resource Management
- DeLorme's XMap GIS Enterprise software is assisting individual environmental engineers, as well as large natural resource departments to create meaningful GIS analysis of their wilderness or agricultural areas. XMap can provide project management tools and site assessment visualizations in support of environmental compliance. XMap can also serve as a shared GIS data repository supporting field engineers improving data integrity and enhancing field-force productivity through GPS navigation
- XMap Forms provide easy-to-use GPS data collection forms that improve your department's ability to acquire accurate GIS data. Administrators can easily setup Forms that display key GIS objects and encourage data collection through constraint- and attribute- based drop- down options
- XMap now supports embedded documents. - Work with existing third party documents and forms within your existing business work flow to collect accurate data
- Geographic Information System (GIS) technology, accurate maps and imagery, GPS data collection, and navigation tools are critical elements of an efficient field-engineering workflow supporting natural resource management
- XMap is the easy-to-use data visualization tool providing environmental planners, scientists and GIS managers with comprehensive, shared views of critical habitat topography, aerial imagery and species-specific GIS layers
Share Critical Information throughout Your Organization
Share critical map views with field engineers. Export GIS map views, aerial imagery, or geo-registered scanned images to the Earthmate GPS PN-Series handheld receivers. Improve decision-making and empower field engineers by providing access to critical data.
- View critical habitat data against aerial or satellite imagery. Conduct side-by-side analysis of before and after maps to verify regulation compliance
- Import and geo-reference scanned images and blueprints - transfer the resulting raster map layer to the Earthmate GPS PN-Series devices
- Efficiently direct your field engineers to remote target areas using GPS navigation on rural roads, trails and across terrain. Get outside-the-vehicle navigation using the Earthmate GPS PN-Series devices
- Automate data synchronization for field editing processes, including query views, redlining, and data check-out/in. Develop work flows that maintain data integrity across your mobile GIS engineers
- Full GIS support. Supports ESRI® .shp, MapInfo .mif, .tab, and AutoCAD .dxf, .dwg files. ArcSDE® support included with XMap GIS Enterprise
XMap Workflow Automation
Easy-to-use Application Programming Interface (API) lets developers access mapping functions to automate data updates, improve efficiency, or share map views between field associates.
- Create automatic data collection work-flows using XMap Forms
- Automate map searches, route generation, map rendering, or batch data exports
- Automate links to 3rd-party applications
- Drive map views automatically
Access Low-Cost Aerial Imagery
View readily-available imagery in MrSID or GeoTIFF format. Export image files to the Earthmate GPS PN-Series devices.
- Access your local or state GIS imagery libraries
- Layer various year vintages for change comparison or map data accuracy improvements
- Optimize XMap performance and imagery management by converting your organization's imagery data to XMap format (service quotes available upon request)
- Import and geo-reference scanned images and plans - transfer the resulting raster map layer to the Earthmate GPS PN-Series devices
XMap Applied
DeLorme XMap GIS and GPS technologies are applied today in environmental planning and natural resource management by individual environmental planners and by many state natural resource departments. XMap supports:
- The tracking and data collection of various species migration patterns
- Habitat and land use studies exploring existing resource use and future resource management
- Compliance with environmental development regulations and and land use laws
- GPS Navigation on trails and rural roads – use DeLorme's PN-Series to navigate off trail or find your way back
Information Technology Administration
All XMap software titles support Microsoft Vista and advanced installation protocols. DeLorme technical support representatives are prepared to help your IT people configure XMap.
- XMap installation support is available to help navigate today's OS, permissions, and database protocols
- XMap software, installation, training and support will make your budget submittal a winner
- XMap training services can be provided on-site or online
