Developing an app needing database and Java graphics, web CAD or mapping?
Posted in 1998
If you are using a database including enterprise database (Oracle, Sybase, Informix, DB2, Ingres) or Microsoft Access or SQL Server, you need to create a thin-client that is graphics-intensive, or if you need a Java applet or application that involves graphics, we'd like to help you. We are developers of the ClearSpace technology. ClearSpace allows you to build simple or complex graphics applications or applets, all in platform-independent Java, with a minimum amount of programming. ClearSpace(tm) is a group of high level application components that simply requires that you glue the components together to produce anything from a front-end to a network management program, to a full-blown web CAD or GIS package, and everything in-between. ClearSpace is for developers. If you are a developer and you want to build a GIS, CAD or graphics web application, you can use ClearSpace to save a lot of time and money. If you have no Java experience, you can use ClearSpace much more easily than you can just plain Java, because you are using high level building blocks with ClearSpace and it makes learning and using Java much easier than ever. ClearSpace is 100% Pure Java. Here are some applications for ClearSpace. *In place of map viewers/servers Customers use ClearSpace in place of MapObjects and Internet Map Server, or MapGuide or GeoMedia. With ClearSpace, you don't need any sort of dedicated map server. ClearSpace clients can read simultaneously from multiple servers and show many views. Views can be overlaid, geo-registered, tiled, whatever. Multiple projections are supported, multiple tiling schemes, file formats, etc. We support ArcView shape files, CADRG, DTED, DXF and Oracle Spatial Data Cartridge (SDO or SDC). *To create thin client viewers If you have a need for a thin client to display raster or vector images, use ClearSpace. You can overlay symbols and when your end-user clicks on the symbols, menus can pop up, SQL calls can be made, etc. *To build graphics front-ends that users can edit ClearSpace has a framework for building user-editable graphics. This is useful if you want users to be able to grab objects, edit them, group them together, etc. Applications include technical graphics, workflow, network analysis, and much more. If you are building anything like the above, you need ClearSpace. It can save you hundreds of thousands of dollars in headaches and development costs. And all ClearSpace developer licenses include one full year of technical support, upgrades and updates. Best of all, there are third party add-ons that fully support the major relational databases including Access, Oracle, Sybase, Informix, and DB2. These add-ons let you actually store and retrieve you graphical objects and your non-graphical attributes, using your enterprise database. If you just need to access e for attribute information only (no spatial data) you don't even need these add-ons.
