Municipality of Groningen Selects GIS and Web Mapping Solution Based on Cadcorp Technology

  • Rating12345

Cadcorp partner, Vicrea Solutions B.V., continues its success in local government with the decision by the municipality of Groningen to deploy Vicrea’s Neuron Property Registration System (BAG), based on Cadcorp web mapping and GIS technology. The solution will be used to comply with the ‘Nederlandse Overheid Referentie Architectuur’ (NORA) – the Dutch Government Reference Architecture.  NORA is positioned as a first step in an eGovernment vision that will mean a more efficient, less bureaucratic administration capable of delivering high quality public services.

Mr Dirk Winkel of Vicrea explained the practical significance of the architecture. “Although NORA has no legal basis in law, it has been deemed the primary reference architecture for new ICT projects, either directly at the national level, or indirectly via derived reference architectures at the provincial and local levels. The proper management of spatial information is a crucial component in this model. We have found that Cadcorp’s strengths in open and standards-based technologies have been invaluable in allowing us to meet the architectural requirements of local government.”
