This caching looks very promising. You can currently do some bare-bones caching in WebPub through one of the settings. However it doesn&#8217;t work when you enable dynamic resizing of the map to fit different resolutions and screen sizes. Since I almost always have that enabled, I can&#8217;t take advantage of the caching. Hopefully this setting doesn&#8217;t run into the same limitation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Integration with External Applications<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> Web Services integration to external applications &#8211;<br \/>\nAllows you to link the web client with other applications such as ERP systems or office applications like Microsoft Word or Excel<\/li>\n<li> Uses the WCDI (Web Client Desktop Interface) Base Component &#8211;<br \/>\nThe WCDI Base Component is a configurable Java Applet that allows access to local resources on the client computer<\/li>\n<li> Includes base WCDL connector of which custom interfaces can be built upon<\/li>\n<li> WebMap Enterprise includes a WCDL connector for\n<ul>\n<li>Microsoft Word<\/li>\n<li>Microsoft Excel<\/li>\n<li>Notepad<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In today&#8217;s GIS environment, integration is the name of the game. These integration options sound very cool. Not sure how easy\/hard they&#8217;ll be to integrate using GWME as opposed to writing your own custom code (not that I could do that). It would be great if they&#8217;d provide some examples showcasing this type of functionality. If it&#8217;s straightforward enough, I can definitely see folks using this type of functionality.<\/p>\n<p>&#160;<\/p>\n<p>In closing, GeoMedia WebMap Enterprise (according to the slide show I have, was due out in Q2 (ending in June). Surmising from the lack of information on the web site  (at least what I can&#8217;t find) it doesn&#8217;t look like that date was met. Currently, I don&#8217;t own GeoMedia WebMap let alone GeoMedia WebMap Professional. However I&#8217;m trying to get a copy as part of next year&#8217;s budget. For what I need initially, WebMap Standard with WebPub will work fine. However, with time, I can definitely see GWME being enough of a reason to at least seriously look at upgrading to GeoMedia WebMap Professional. One thing to note however &#8211; it will be curious to see if Intergraph maintains the relatively high price for GeoMedia WebMap Professional (around $20,000 for a &quot;small license&quot; if I recall correctly). Although you&#8217;re getting a lot more functionality for that price, there are plenty of competitive internet map servers on the market today. Not to mention that two very good ones are free (<a href=\"http:\/\/mapserver.gis.umn.edu\/\">UMN<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/mapguide.osgeo.org\/\">MapGuide Open Source<\/a>). Additionally, although you won&#8217;t get anywhere near the functionality of GeoMedia WebMap Professional in one of the free search engine mapping applications, you still get  quite a bit of functionality&#8230;and again&#8230;free.\n\t\t\t          <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Performance Enhancements Server side caching Client side caching I&#8217;m all for anything that makes GeoMedia WebMap faster!
