Own the data
Store the data
Serve the data
Be concerned about
Intellectual Property
Worry about updates to
the data
• All of this is also true of
Analysis provided to
the Atlas by outside

5. Many Organizations Work in Spatial Analysis
•
“Traditional” GIS and Spatial Analysis
using Excel, ArcMap, PostGIS, MatLab,
R, and others
o
Solving problems, producing data,
visualizing results
• High End Cartography
Communicating results to others in
graphic form
o Excellent format for expressing
complex ideas and spatial relationships
o
• Enterprise Web Based Spatial Analysis
