GeoMedia WebMap training

On an interesting training course all day today about GeoMedia WebMap 5.2. Provides for generation of a SVG (as opposed to the heavy Active CGM plugin) maps with good interactivity. The site code that is copied from the template is still ASP3 so initial conversion of the standard site template to ASP.Net and the removal of the frames would be beneficial but it appears to be more of an integrated product than its previous versions.

A big win is the config information is no longer scattered amongst ASP include files but instead its in an access database. This access database can be retrieved from a live site and imported into your test configuration site to get all their customised properties up and running very quickly. This would have taken an age before.

More experimentation needed with this product, perhaps lessons learned from Google Maps will eventually filter through to Intergraph.
