| The Sentinel Integrated Geospatial Module brings Geographic
Information System (GIS) capabilities to the Sentinel TMS product.
With built-in world map data, Sentinel Integrated Geospatial adds a
powerful new dimension to complex data analytics. With Sentinel Integrated Geospatial, you can:
- Map the current disposition of entities on a world map.
- See the relationships between entities in different locations.
- Control layers for cities, countries, regions, etc.
- Employ industry standard raster and vector shapefile data.
Flexible
Mapping Control
Sentinel Integrated Geospatial supports both raster
and vector data from standard shapefile-format data files. World map
data is included for countries, administrative regions, cities, rivers,
and lakes. Lines of latitude and longitude can be displayed, and options
are available for balancing visual quality with drawing speed. A
mini-map navigator makes it easy to navigate to specific locations.
Full printing support is included with fit-to-page or large scale
multi-page output.
Seeing
Data on the Map
With Sentinel Integrated GIS, you can overlay entity and relationship
information directly on the map. You have control over the type of
marker used to denote each entity, and the line color, style and thickness
for relationships. Because the time-based nature of complex data
is important, Sentinel Integrated GIS can also show geographic
locations of entities over time. And with group and cluster analysis,
you can map the current position of groups of data.
Complete Control
With Sentinel Integrated Geospatial, you have complete control over
the setup and rendering of map data. You can specify graphics and text
rendering quality, indicate which layers to show or hide, and
customize fonts and colors.
You can also add your own points or lines directly to the map and choose
from a comprehensive collection of marker icons. Support is also
included for converting from Degrees, Minutes, Seconds (DMS) format to
Decimal Degrees, and vice versa. Three map modes are available: Raster
shows a satellite image of the world as the background, Color Vector
draws the map using colors to denote areas and boundaries, and Gray
Vector uses shades of gray for all non-objects, allowing markers and lines to stand out. |
