ESRI Keywords: Authoritative Data, Generic Services
Wyatt Kash, editor in chief at Government Computer News was on the questioning side of the latest interviewwith ESRI's Jack Dangermond.
Dangermond highlights the differences between Google Earth-based Virtual Alabama and ESRI-based Virginia Interoperability Picture for Emergency Response, VIPER. The former copies data to central repository for visualization while the latter is built on a services framework that pulls live data and analyzes it. He recounts the history of online mapping (it started wtih MapQuest). He evaluates how Vivek Kundra is doing and lays out his vision for Web GIS.
A few things stand out in this interview:
- many repeated uses of the terms "authoritative data" and "generic services"
- discussion of a hosting option for ArcGIS online which provides "users additional options to extend their systems"
- a reference to the recent integration of data.gov and geodata.gov (I don't think I was aware of that)
