Leading Business Intelligence Suites Harmonized and GIS-Enhanced

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

Infonaut’s dynamic geospatial interface and location-based business intelligence are now more widely available to healthcare performance managers following our integration with ABS System Consultants’ leading performance management application Metrics3D.

Through the SE CCAC, a strategic collaboration between Infonaut and ABS System Consultants has rapidly advanced both business intelligence tools, opening up Infonaut’s GIS technology to ABS’ extensive user base, and adding an in-demand GIS interface to ABS’s comprehensive all-in-one performance suite.

The Metrics3D tool is developed explicitly for use in the public sector to report on metrics relevant to decision makers. Infonaut’s GIS software furthers that goal by taking these metrics as input, and making them readily understandable using Infonaut’s intuitive, easy-to-use and impactful geographic representations.

In integrating their applications, Infonaut and ABS worked with data from multiple CCAC legacy systems – extracting, cleaning, geocoding, georeferencing this important client and community information – before porting the information back to the new GIS/ Metrics3D system. This improved information set is enhanced with an automated monthly data refresh process. This final step ensures that the SE CCAC performance metrics in the GIS-enabled system are always based on the most current information possible.

Infonaut Partners with Sault Ste. Marie Innovation Centre

Thursday, January 10th, 2008

Infonaut is pleased to announce a formalized partnership with the Sault Ste Marie Innovation Centre (SSMIC), world-wide leaders in community health geomatics and geo-spatial data warehousing.

Working with the Innovation Centre’s Community Geomatics Centre (CGC), Infonaut has signed a memorandum of understanding to jointly develop a Location-Based Business Intelligence hospital application that utilizes GIS (Geographic Information System) and RFID (Radio Frequency ID) technology for real-time Hospital Performance Management, Infection Control and Patient Flow. SSMIC will play a key role in the development of a complete GIS hospital application.

SSMIC is a not-for-profit group that is focused on business incubation, support services, and market development projects with partners in information technology and companies in the knowledge economy to further economic development in Sault Ste Marie and the Algoma District. SSMIC’s award winning CGC provides managed and strategic GIS planning services to health and human services organizations as well as the municipal and utilities sectors.

As part of this exciting new partnership, Infonaut will be announcing shortly the opening of a development office in Sault Ste Marie to take advantage of a unique and specialized work-force, enable a closer working relationship with the CGC, and help the Innovation Centre with its goal to further develop and expand this important hub of innovation and IT expertise within Ontario.
