"Bridging the Gap Between CAD and GIS"
Presented By: Chris Tolken, President of Munsys Inc.

Abstract:
Many organizations face the challenge of duplicated effort by trying to maintain both drawing and GIS data in two different systems. Munsys bridges the gap between Engineering and GIS departments by allowing these departments to effectively share this data using Open GIS standards. This presentation will demonstrate how easy it is to maintain your engineering information in an open accessible format where this data can then be utilized by traditional GIS.
