I think you will be very interested in ClearSpace(tm)

ClearSpace is a 100% Pure Java Component Set that helps you build industrial strength Java mapping, CAD and intelligent graphics applications, including modeling, facilities management, etc.

(Plexstar supports many electrical, telephone and gas utilities around the world. Our clients have tens of thousands of maps, with thousands of objects on each map, in very large service areas. ClearSpace is designed for large, robust mapping applications. Clients do complex network analysis, work management, etc.)

You can design applications using ClearSpace and glue code, and more quickly and easily get what you want done. ClearSpace lets you worry about the overall design and architecture of your application, and not worry about lower level stuff.

Some features include:

• Can work with Arc/Info, Oracle SDO/Spatial Cartridge, etc. - Pan, zoom, rotated (vector) text (until 2D API), - Annotation, symbology support - Multiple simultaneous views of the data - Overviews, and overviews of overviews - A very capable filtering mechanism - Mixed spatial and non-spatial data queries - Very fast panning, scrolling, zooming - Complete layer control - Attributes, spatial data and other objects stored together in QuadTrees - Supports very large datasets - Reads and writes many formats - Easy to read and write new formats - Near real-time (when combined with an event management system) - Raster and vector support included - Intelligent Spatial Objects(tm) can have sophisticated behaviors

Applications include:

• GUIs for mapping datasets and datbases
• Developing viewers to look at various types of data
• Mapping software
• CAD viewers and software
• GPS/GIS systems
• Front ends to intranets

  for info see www.plexstar.com or email me rg_at_plexstar.com

I can email you a technical white paper in Adobe Acrobat format, and if you are interested I can email you a 30 day eval copy.

Thank you.
