Technical View
Technical Issues
Most of the tools in the market today are focused on a point-to-point integration solution or data transformation methods, in comparison to one seamless integration framework for easy access to existing desperate systems. The ability to fuse business and spatial data has largely been relegated to specialists. Rolta’s solution provides for integration of business systems and GIS through a configurable platform that does not require custom coding thus saving time and costs to the organization.
Rolta’s Geospatial Fusion is an integration framework that binds spatial and business systems together to create a solution. Through this approach, it is easy to bypass the underlying complexities and system dependencies for quick solution deployment across the enterprise. This framework helps developers to leverage a plug-and-play approach to cut cost of development and use configurable architecture to modify and adopt the solution to changing business needs.

How Does it Fit and Why is it Different?
Rolta’s Geospatial Fusion Solution is unique in its ability to integrate across both geospatial systems and business systems. Spatial integration is achieved through a robust administration engine. Business systems integration is achieved through the rapid creation of SOA web services via our iPerspective™ software. These innovative solutions eliminate data redundancy issues associated with the traditional approach of translate or migrate data in targeted systems. Rolta’s Geospatial Fusion Solution can bring information together from various systems, without the need for transformation.
