 Infrastructure Ontario (IO) is providing a suite of services for the Ontario government called "Ontario GeoPortal". SKE is the implementation partner for these services.
Ontario GeoPortal is built on the success of the IO "GeoPortal for Ontario". With this, IO staff can find assets (buildings, properties, parcels), see what's nearby, and access critical information about them - all through a geographic portal (SC2-GeoPortal) that integrates disparate business data and systems through a map-based interface.
IO added the "G" (geography) to their "IS" (information systems) through a fully integrated geo-information solution.
Business applications can also link to the Ontario GeoPortal to "geo-enable" themselves. Integrated data security and access management make the solution secure and reliable.
This has meant:
- IO's distributed corporate business applications can now be geo-enabled.
- IO has an OGC compliant, vendor-neutral technology solution.
- IO is better able to share information/data with clients and partners.
- IO is able to leverage other organizations' data.
- IO can provide geo-services to the rest of the province - through the Ontario GeoPortal
Ontario GeoPortal offers the following services:
- Customer GeoPortal - Customers get their own GeoPortal with their data, non-structured content, and business systems integrated within the rich content and functionality of the IO GeoPortal.
- Custom Business Systems – We develop, deploy, and support customized, location-aware business systems that leverage GeoPortal.
- Business System Hosting – We host IO's customers' GeoPortal-enabled business systems on our high availability infrastructure.
- 3rd Party Information Services – Customers can access specialty information products and services from various information service providers available in the IO GeoPortal.
