Supergeo Technologies, a leading global provider of GIS software and
solutions, announces the investment plan in advanced geographic network applications.
The technology collaboration is conducted by Supergeo and the Department of
Geography, National Taiwan University ,
supported by the Ministry of Science and Technology in Taiwan .
The academia-industry project mainly focuses on the production of geographic
network analysis module to increase the coverage of GIS applications. “Although
there are already some researches mentioning integrative application of network
analysis and geography, a complete algorithm as comprehensive GIS solution is
not well developed yet”, indicated by Prof. T.H. Wen, Dept. of Geography, NTU.
This innovative project considers more social network influence than
the traditional GIS analysis, which only takes distance as the main factor but
ignores human activities. For example, the infection of disease may be limited
by geographic environment and distance, but the community far away from the
original might still get infected because of human activities.
The unique module is designed for global GIS users to get more accurate
analysis for better decision making. According to the Product Dept at Supergeo,
the innovative analysis modules will be included in the next generation of
SuperGIS Desktop Spatial Statistical Analyst Extension, released in 2015.
Supergeo devotes to developing state-of-the-art GIS technologies,
and keeps cooperating with academia to catch the innovative technology and
methodology trends with GIS, bringing worldwide GIS users with custom and
easy-to-use technologies.
