The interface
Familiar search features of Cadcorp SIS WebMap
As FindIT works in SIS WebMap, it offers a number of options for defining the search area. The user can either draw an area freehand, select an existing feature, or an OS MasterMap polygon (for example, a building outline).
The application
Provide numerous users with access to relevant searches information with the option to share a standardised report
FindIT allows users to search a large number of datasets, even if stored in different directories. Running the search will find all features that touch, overlap, or are completely within the drawn polygon.
Results are presented in a standardised report with a map displaying the search item and its surrounding area.
Results are also recorded along with the search item geometry in SQL Server, Oracle or a PostGIS spatial database. Public and internal access to data can be controlled and multiple maps can be created for different searches.
