Frequently Asked Questions
What sets Alto Data Management apart from a standard GIS?
The system centralizes and manages a wide range of data types — including geographic data, business data, documents, aerial imagery, images, data services, and structured, semi-structured and unstructured data — letting the organization know what data exists, where it is, and how it can be used. At the heart of the solution is Catalog Explorer, a management and cataloging interface for data managers, GIS developers and data teams, used to consolidate, organize, tag, catalog and manage data from a variety of sources and types.
The interface lets the organization know what data exists, where it is stored, who is responsible for it, how it relates to other data, and how it can be made available to users in a controlled way.
At the same time, end users do not need to work with the management interface. They access data through applications, maps, portals and data services, and can search, view, download and use data according to the permissions defined for them.
What geographic processing can be performed in Alto Data Management?
Geographic data can be processed and analyzed directly on the server. GIS developers can publish complex models and processing workflows built in Imagine or GeoMedia, and let other users run them through the browser without specialized knowledge or dedicated software.
Does the system work only with Octave products?
No. Alto Data Management is based on open standards such as OGC and ISO and integrates with a wide range of systems, databases and enterprise applications. It integrates easily with the organization's existing solutions and is not limited to Octave products.
Can data access permissions be controlled?
Yes. The system includes security and permission mechanisms that define who can view, edit, publish or download data. Users see only the data they are allowed to access, according to their role and the permissions defined for them.
Which operating systems can run Alto Data Management?
The system is supported on both Windows and Linux, allowing flexible deployment on-premise or in the cloud.
