Blue Marble Geographics (www.bluemarblegeo.com) will offer a free web demonstration of the Blue Marble Desktop on Tuesday, March 3rd at 11:00 a.m. EST.  Space is limited, so sign up now at  http://www.bluemarblegeo.com/products/webinar.php


The Blue Marble Desktop (v1.1.) is an all-in-one geospatial data management platform for Blue Marble’s popular data transformation tools. The Geographic Calculator and Geographic Transformer now reside in the same desktop window along with all of the capabilities of the Geographic Translator available on the Vector File Conversion tab of the Calculator.

Work seamlessly with all of the features of both applications in a single interface through a combined license. Whether you are working with coordinate, vector, CAD or raster data the Blue Marble Desktop allows you to address your data conversion challenges in the same application interface.
 

Leverage the power of these tools with ESRI’s ArcGIS through two toolbar extensions.  Version 1.1 features expanded vector and CAD translation capabilities through the Geographic Calculator 7.2. Users can now translate between 20 different vector and CAD file formats. The ArcGIS Extension now features support for ESRI Spatial database conversions for SDE, File Geodatabase, and Personal Geodatabase.
 

Features of Blue Marble Desktop include:
 

    * Support for a wide variety of geospatial data types: Raster, Vector, Geometry, LIDAR, GML and much more
