Cloud Hosting

Software as a Service (SaaS)

Cadcorp’s SaaS proposition is based around the provision of Cadcorp SIS WebMap as a fully hosted service on an instance of the Microsoft Azure Cloud platform.

Cadcorp SIS WebMap is a sophisticated off-the-shelf application for Internet and Intranet mapping designed specifically for organisations wishing to share map-based information with a large community of non-expert users via a browser. It is often deployed with an Add-in Local Knowledge™ which provides answers to questions about particular localities. 

Cadcorp will install, set up and manage an instance of Cadcorp SIS WebMap (and optionally Local Knowledge) on behalf of the customer. The customer will be able to load updates to existing map overlays via a secure FTP area of the server. These updates will be automatically applied by a Cadcorp data management application.  Cadcorp can offer two options for changes and configuration to the application:

Option 1 All application and data configuration performed by Cadcorp as part of a managed service using Cadcorp consultancy.

Option 2 The customer can attend the relevant training courses and subsequently configure the application and data themselves using the Cadcorp data and application administration tools.

Data as a Service (DaaS)

The hosted data service offered by Cadcorp is based around the provision of Ordnance Survey map data hosted on an instance of the Microsoft Azure Cloud platform.

Cadcorp will load and manage Ordnance Survey data for use with Cadcorp SIS WebMap. All maps updates, styling and scale thresholds are applied by Cadcorp.
