ODBC (Open Database Connectivity) - Latitude's ODBC abilities allow it to connect and interrogate LIVE to any compliant system, (MS Access, SQL Server, Oracle, dBase etc).
Direct Links - Latitude has the power of live links to many information systems including AusSoft's CommuNiTy, Sanderson Authority, GEAC Pathway & TCS, ADI Data Works, Tower Trim, Praxa Gems and more. |
| Maintenance |
LIVE databases can be updated and new layers can be added to the system to provide more information to the users. Links from map objects to plans, documents, reports and photographs can be achieved using File Association. |
| Reporting and Mail Merge Facilities |
Integration to Crystal Reports allows for detailed reports to be created from a selection on the map. Mail Merge is a simple task - just select the Data file and the mail merge word document and the rest is done for you. |
