"In order to support geospatial data users in North Carolina we needed a fast solution that would allow our users to access, manage, and deliver large amounts of data very quickly and efficiently," said David Giordano, NC OneMap Database Administrator. "Now, thanks to LizardTech Express Server, we are able to stream and share more than 12 terabytes (TB) of North Carolina aerial imagery to various government agencies who can view the data in their geospatial applications. We will add even more imagery in the coming months."
"Express Server 6 is designed to serve more users in less time using widely adapted standards and familiar tools without adding hardware or buying more bandwidth," said Jon Skiffington, LizardTech senior product manager. "That’s why Express Server was the perfect solution to the very challenging problem that NC OneMap was facing. It allowed their users to instantly stream aerial photography for online use or in their needed software packages for viewing and downloading."
