PCI Geomatics has released its geospatial web conferencing technology, GeoConference Version 3.0, which is a software solution that enables groups to share and view maps and images interactively over the web, in real-time.

  GeoConference contains tools for hosting interactive geospatial teleconferences, linking clients in remote locations, and facilitating connections to geospatial databases. The benefits of GeoConference include:  a cost-effective way to share maps, exchange information and simultaneously receive feedback from colleagues in real-time, reduce travel expenditures, easy set up and implementation, secure distribution of geospatial data without replication, use of open data standards and integration with other geomatics technology. GeoConference 3.0 gives users control over their sessions through an invitation process they can initiate. This allows anyone who receives an invitation by email to instantly join a GeoConference using a thin client application that installs in seconds.  GeoConference includes session recording and review capabilities; an audit trail of activities is stored on the server which can be used for reviewing decisions made in their situational context for a thorough post mortem analysis.
