"We have 8,000 employees based in 30 countries, and supporting all of that there are 4 people on the GIS team. So FME and automation is a really important thing for us."

CAE
As a world leader in training new pilots through flight simulations, CAE has a lot on their plate. Not only are the timelines for these projects strict, there is also very little room for error. That’s why FME Desktop and FME Server has been used to transform their data. Rather than needing 2-3 days to transform data, they can now do it in a matter of minutes. Projects are now completed in less time, and the simulations are more accurate representations of the real world. What more could you ask for?
Department of National Defence
To create a central repository for land, building, and infrastructure data, the Department of National Defence (DND) worked with the Assistant Deputy Minister of Infrastructure and Environment (ADMIE) and the Mapping and Charting Establishment (MCE) to bring together a variety of spatial data. This data was distributed among many data formats and needed to be standardized and integrated for the final repository. With the help of FME Desktop and the ArcGIS Data Interoperability Tool, the DND could self validate data before sending their copies into a SQL Server database.
Spatial Geo and the UK Space Agency
The project that Spatial Geo was tasked with under a grant from the UK Space Agency was to create one application that over 100 government organizations could use for retrieving useful satellite imagery and earth observation information. To do this, FME Cloud was used in conjunction with Amazon Web Servers (AWS) to deliver the results of the application. FME was used to create code-less web API’s, to monitor the information requests, and to notify users of updates.
