Hello all. I hope you don't mind my posting this notice, as it may be of interest to you if you are in Europe and looking for a metadata tool. Thanks.
Caroline. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PRESS RELEASE For Immediate Release Compass Metadata Management Software Now Available In Europe From Pelican GeoGraphics Ltd PELICAN GEOGRAPHICS LTD is proud to announce that it has recently been awarded European reseller status for Compass, the popular MapInfo data and metadata management system from Meridian GIS. Already widely used in its native Australia, Compass streamlines and simplifies the management of the increasingly large amounts of data required by today's organisations, by storing comprehensive metadata in a searchable catalogue system. Compass will catalogue and maintain Tables, Saved Queries, Workspaces, ER Mapper Image Web Server and Oracle 8i connections. The catalogues can be filtered on user-defined categories, or searched either hierarchically or spatially, and the results presented to the user in a logical, intuitive interface with corresponding metadata. The need to navigate through complex directory structures to open tables is made redundant, multiple datasets can be selected and previewed, and informed decisions about which data to use can be made. Compass is available in 2 versions; Administrator, which enables catalogue maintenance, and Navigator, for data viewing and searching data. Both are now available throughout Europe from Pelican GeoGraphics Ltd (www.pelicangeographics.co.uk). A 30-day trial is available for download at http://www.meridian-gis.com.au/. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dr Caroline Hilton Pelican GeoGraphics Ltd London, UK [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.pelicangeographics.co.uk _______________________________________________________________________ List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe MapInfo-L" in the message body.
