Pitney Bowes Business Insight announced the launch of MapInfo Manager, a revolutionary application that allows GIS managers, IT managers and data stewards to more easily catalog, search and locate geospatial data for anyone within an organization. By ensuring that users are never more than three clicks away from finding their necessary data sets, MapInfo Manager reduces the countless hours spent hunting for data and instead allows more time for data visualization and analysis.
Today, organizations around the world struggle with managing, searching and understanding their endless amounts of data. As an intuitive data management application, MapInfo Manager finally allows users to create a highly customizable catalog of their geospatial data assets and increases the understanding of data characteristics and appropriate uses for data through metadata. The solution does not replace existing databases but instead creates metadata records for finding and accessing the correct data from the secure location in which it is already housed, ensuring both smarter version control and user-friendly search functionality. By providing this single point of truth for spatial data, organizations save costs by avoiding duplicate data collection or purchases being carried out by two different departments of the same company.
