MS Virtual Earth integrates into WinGIS/AGROffice/DokuPlant/ForestOffice

*/Considering that nearly 80 % of all existing data do have a geographic reference, it/**/ i/**/s worth to learn more about/**/ /**/them./*

The integration of the MS *Virtual Earth software* <http://maps.live.de/LiveSearch.LocalLive> technology* *into the *PROGIS* <http://www.progis.com>* WinGIS* *G*eographic* **I*nformation-*S*ystems and applications brings the following* **advantages and benefits* for all user groups:

1.      Each WinGIS-project can be developped and visualized on Virtual Earth Data
2.      Virtual Earth raster AND vector information become one layer in

         o WinGIS or in           o AGROffice GIS and AGROffice GIS professional or in
         o PROGIS loGIStics
         o Forest-Office
         o agricultural advisory solutions
         o regional agricultural expert projects or
         o countrywide solutions.

3.     With our AX-WinGIS component software developers can easily integrate a GIS and Virtual Earth into their application
4.      Virtual Earth data use is price competitive for many applications.

*If the **Virtual Earth resolution is precise enough*

1)      there is no need for the procurement of geo-data (which is sometimes long lasting and very expensive)
2)      and any project may be started immediately, as the procurement process for geo-data becomes obsolete.
3)      In many cases imported GPS data or other vector data can also abolish lower resolution rasterdata.

You don’t have to be a GIS-expert to benefit from these features – you may be a supplier or vendor, or a service provider, advisor or banker, you may be working in the fields of agricultural and/or forest infrastructure or telecommunications, in education or health services or you might be a doctor who wants to visualize where your patients live and what is the relation between illnes and environment, etc.
