Oracle Spatial Solutions

Integrated Geodata for Network Operator Processes

The Oracle Spatial solutions from Mettenmeier integrate geodata and geo functions in the IT environment and the processes of a company. This enables investments to be used quickly and consistently, e.g. through reporting and analysis possibilities for decision-making support.

The flexible and scaleable applications are based on the Oracle-10g/11g Spatial database and a standard J2EE application server. The use of a service-oriented multi-layer architecture for geodata and geo functions permits an optimal integration of data and applications in process-supported corporate IT applications, such as the integration into a Business Process Management solution (BPM) for direct support of the company's processes. products by catagory or in alphabetical order.

7 Reasons for Oracle Spatial Solutions from Mettenmeier

1. Open, worldwide standard

Oracle Spatial offers a completely open architecture based on IT standards for the administration of space-oriented data. As a result of the worldwide availability and the close orientation to recognised standards (OpenGIS, ISO, ANSI), Oracle stands for openness as well as future and investment security.

2. Scaleable architecture

Geodata is made serviceable in a scaleable manner. The Oracle Spatial applications from Mettenmeier benefit from the outstanding scalability of the Oracle database and J2EE architecture. Existing GIS data and GIS functions are made available throughout the company.

3. Opening up GIS data for company processes (asset management)

GIS data facilitates management and business processes for network operators and it supports both strategic decisions and perational work procedures. This means that ERP systems or company management systems can be expanded quickly and easily by GIS components.

4. The easiest integration possibilities

The use of GIS as an isolated application is passé. Oracle offers a company-wide, uniform architecture, in which the existing GIS data and GIS applications can be incorporated and thereby operated more efficiently. The use of a service-oriented architecture opens up efficient integration possibilities.

5. Rapid development of new process-supported applications

The integration of geo, network and resource data and other specialist data for the power supply operation means that new application possibilities can be developed, such as an information portal, reporting functions for control management or the integration of data in tools for strategy development and optimisation.

6. Security for geodata

The high value of geodata means that it is worthwhile being protected. As Oracle Spatial applications are seamlessly integrated into the Oracle database, their complete range of features concerning data security are available for use (backup, recovery, reliability, availability, access rules, etc.).

7. Use of Smallworld Network Resource Managers

Mettenmeier, as the developer of Network Resource Managers, provides components on an application level for the use of GIS data and GIS functions within the framework of Oracle architectures. The Network Resource Managers operate as expert applications to make data available for a wide range of use.

Mettenmeier GmbH is a worldwide Oracle partner and it utilises its many years of experience gained in the development of GIS applications combined with the knowledge of customer requirements to provide flexible Oracle Spatial applications. Mettenmeier acts as an Independent System Vendor (ISV) and System Integrator (SI) in the Oracle partnership. In addition to the Oracle Spatial database Mettenmeier also uses the J2EE Application Server Suite Oracle Fusion, for example, to develop integrated business process solutions.
