In the past year we’ve seen Cloud Computing come on the scene in a big way, revolutionizing how local government implements and uses technology. GIS (Geographic Information System) has especially benefited, as the cloud removes many of its traditional challenges, making it more affordable, faster to deploy, more widely available, and easier to use. The cloud revolution is here and Cloud GIS is a must-have technology for cities of all sizes.
The future is clearly in cloud computing. Municipalities who’ve adopted Cloud GIS find relief for their overburdened IT staff, constrained budgets and technology adoption woes, and even experience increased citizen engagement. Cloud GIS lets local governments realize many of the long-promised benefits of GIS that have largely remained elusive.
If you’d like to learn how to leverage cloud technologies and heighten your GIS success then be sure to attend our information-packed session in Milwaukee, “The Cloud Revolution: Transforming GIS for Local Government.” We’ll arm you with the latest developments in Cloud GIS, illustrate how the City of San Juan Capistrano, California embraced this transformative technology and provide tips for how you can get started with the cloud.
