Companies We Work With
As official members of the Autodesk Developer's Network (ADN), you can rest assured that we are creating and delivering quality solutions when working with Autodesk products. We are always at the forefront of new product releases, often being asked to be a member of beta test teams prior to public releases. In addition, we are able to obtain programming and technical assistance directly from Autodesk employees around the world. As part of the ADN program, every Autodesk software release is available to us for development purposes.
As premiere Autodesk developers and trainers, we are annually invited by Autodesk to teach at Autodesk U. Going back to Las Vegas, Autodesk University (AU) 2009 is a "can't miss" event for everyone who uses Autodesk® solutions and services. At AU, you'll gain the latest tools, skills, and industry contacts that will keep you ahead of your competition. Learn the fastest and most efficient ways to create, share, and manage data throughout the lifecycle of a project using AutoCAD® and Manufacturing, Mapping, Civil Engineering, Infrastructure Management, or Building Solutions. We look forward to seeing you December 1-4, 2009 at the Mandalay Bay Hotel in Las Vegas.
We use Safe Software's Feature Manipulation Engine (FME) on any project that requires conversion, coordinate transformation or manipulation of GIS data. It is an ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) tool for spatial data. Their transformation tools are second to none and, quite frankly, without this product there are projects we simply could not have done without extensive custom programming. Obviously, we swear by Safe Software's products and encourage you to check them out for your GIS translation needs.
We are an authorized partner and work directly with Autodesk Professional Services as sub-contractors on projects that may require our experience and domain expertise. This allows customers projects to be managed by their very experienced management team and can simplify the billing and procurement process in many cases. With these combinations of skills, you can't go wrong if your project is developed by the Autodesk Professional Services and Spatial Integrators team.
K-Tek Solutions brings together some of the brightest minds in various CAD and GIS disciplines allowing them to always provide the client with the best of breed solutions. As a certified partner, we work jointly on projects to provide GIS solutions while also recommending other members of the certified partner group to our clients in areas of expertise we don't necessarily have.
GeoNorth is a proven innovator in the GIS, Internet, and Database development industries. They have a long history of ESRI GIS development, allowing Spatial Integrators to utilize their expertise where needed. In turn, if their projects have a need for Autodesk data integration, they call us. They were the first ESRI Business Partner to benchmark SDE with Oracle Workgroup Server. GeoNorth was the first company to create an online interactive mapping application using ESRI's MapObjects Internet Map Server (MO IMS) and the first to develop a ColdFusion client application for ArcIMS.
MultiSpeak® is a specification for the exchange of data among software applications commonly applied in small electric utilities, such as electric cooperatives. Software providers may use the specification to write interfaces that will enable the interchange of information with other software that supports MultiSpeak. The MultiSpeak Initiative is a collaborative effort of the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA) along with over 120 software providers and consultants that serve electric utilities. The Initiative was formed to foster the development of cost-effective, interoperable software products for electric utilities. Major support for the development of the specification has been provided by the Cooperative Research Network of NRECA.
