Intergraph Corporation put together several geographic information system (GIS) applications to form GeoMedia, which has become a robust platform for managing geospatial databases, analyzing geographic information, and generating maps based on location data. It's an enterprise-level system that gives organizations the capability to conduct real-time analysis of GPS data and mapped locations. GeoMedia has three other components that add functionality to its map viewer that pulls out GeoWorkspace data for simple analysis and output. The first component, Essentials, performs basic spatial analysis of vector maps. Advantage, the second tier, performs flow analysis and contour generation of the terrain. As the third component, Professional manages linear references and validates geographic data among other functions. Apart from the desktop suite, Geomedia software for web servers and mobile devices are also available. Extensions supported and distributed by independent developers have added more functionality to this GIS management platform.
