Carmenta Server

A complete solution for cost-effective visualisation and distribution of GIS data through web services

Carmenta Server provides all the necessary functionality for managing, publishing and distributing maps and other geospatial data to end users via Internet and intranet services. It offers robust, cost-effective technology for building highly scalable web-based geospatial solutions and simplifies the exchange of geographic data using standardised, open interfaces. Carmenta Server has proven its value to customers in a wide range of domains, from official governmental websites to private enterprise networks.

The Carmenta Server has outstanding performance and reliability credentials in operational deployments. It is built around the ability to read any raster and vector data source in its native format and can be connected to any number of data sources simultaneously. The product allows for on-the-fly data geoprocessing operations, enabling in-line transformations in all service interfaces.

The Carmenta Server fully utilises the latest in server technology and hardware architectures. It can be deployed to support small GIS teams with single machine installations and scaled up to run enterprise-wide networks. Given the very high performance figures and an ability to handle high loads, a business critical GIS website can run on fewer servers without compromising capacity or availability. The product fully supports deploying Internet services in virtual and cloud environments.

Carmenta is a technical committee member of the Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc. (OGC), an international industry consortium of more than 450 companies, government agencies and universities. We strive to use open and international de-facto standards wherever possible in our products.
