Intergraph will use web-based technology to analyze existing infrastructure and population data. Research results will help officials plan the location of new schools and existing school enrolment-sustainability.
Omnilink, a data management company, will provide application support, business and data development, and training and support to staff.
Introducing location-aware technology for industry-specific applications is making tasks and projects easier for customers around the world, said Tim Mahoney, vice president of Asia Pacific security, government & infrastructure at Intergraph.
Vincent Bok, manager of school planning for the Department of Education and Training concurred: Using the solution, the Department can manage budgets more effectively and plan for long-term enrollment, which is something we’ve been unable to do in the past.
