This has been a busy summer for all of us and I am very pleased to
announce the addition of 7 new applications that support LandXML 1.0 -
all announced in the past 30 days. This brings us up to 27 total LandXML
supported software applications. I have to say that I am very proud of
our accomplishments - the largest of which is putting competitive
differences aside and working together for the good of the industry.
Two of the new applications are GIS applications that are now directly
leveraging design data. I think this is very exciting and confirms the
notion that cross discipline data exchange is here and now. We have had
many discussions about how GIS, engineering design and survey data could
work together to provide extraordinary leverage to customers. I think we
can do better - in fact, I know we can.
We have a new opportunity to make GIS and design data interoperability a
reality with an upcoming project called TransXML (
<http://trb.org/nchrp> http://trb.org/nchrp, "20-64 XML Schemas for
Exchange of Transportation Data"). LandXML.org and OpenGIS will work
together to contribute to this new effort and I welcome any input or
thoughts you may have.
