Planning ahead before investing in a geographic information system saves money and reduces risk, but how can you know which system infrastructure is right for your company? The innovative Capacity Planning Tool included on the book's accompanying CD will increase the likelihood of success by establishing a framework of setting performance targets and validating that these targets are met throughout GIS deployment. Building a GIS: System Architecture Design Strategies for Managers will challenge the way you think about managing your IT operations and will provide software developers with a better understanding of the performance and scalability of their products. Building a GIS is an essential companion piece to Roger Tomlinson's Thinking About GIS, Third Edition. Together, these books are targeted to help organizations implement, integrate, and scale up a GIS at a lesser cost.
