Our Blog-FriendsYea, you heard us. ESRI, THE leader in GIS technology (makes ArcGIS, ArcView, ArcInfo, etc) featured SEDA (and their multi-functional property search website) on its community showcase section (scroll down the page).
The Property Search website enables users to search for available industrial buildings, office space, and land sites based on multiple search criteria. Results are viewed on a GIS-enhanced dynamic map and can compare locations to community features and transportation access. There is even an option to save a search in a personal portfolio. (FYI, SEDA maintains relationships with area developers and landowners and manages a database of property from 5,000 square feet to 1,400 acres. )
The Property Search website is such a great use of ESRI’s technology that not only did they request to do a case study on it, but they asked to showcase the site at the International Users Conference last week. Not too shabby, huh? We’re beaming with pride and admiration for big econ dev brother. You did good!
(A special shout out to Amanda Blind, GIS Analyst and Research Guru at SEDA, for her mappy muscle on this endeavor. Thanks for all your hard work…you go girl!)

Spiffy. Who wrote the code for the site? If it wasn’t Ms. Blind, then whoever did it should get a shout out, too!
BinaryBus created and hosts the site. They built the solution, called MapIT, using ESRI’s ArcGIS 9.3 Server technology. BinaryBus also built and hosts the SAGIS website.
We are very excited about the site and working with BinaryBus has been a great experience. Check em out at http://www.binarybus.com
But don’t let Amanda fool you, she sure did bring a great deal of expertise to the table! Maybe not the code, but the vision, for sure! It looks killer and it’s uber-useful too!
I didn’t at all mean to minimize her role! The programming is always just a small part of a project like this. I just happen to be partial toward developers ;-)
I didn’t think you minimized her - my comment was more in response to her! (She’s quite modest.) I know what a geek you are, Lucas ;) - no worries!
it would be better with other languages support, but thanks..
