Geogames is an event with the objective to apply Geoinformation playfully. The pupils should learn to use GIS to solve tasks of everyday’s life. Four different station with topics about Geography, GIS, etc. give an insight where these technologies are used. Students from the Carinthian University of Applied Sciences (CUAS) support pupils in their tasks and at each station.
The event is organized by the CUAS and the federal state government of Carinthia.

On the homepage the pupils will see their walking routes as GPS tracks.
When: 25.06.2008, 8:30 a.m

As mentioned in this post, Intergraph is trying to merge the functionality of their public safety CAD (computer aided dispatch), their G/Technology suite (used for utility and communication networks), and the GeoMedia platform.
It could be that:
- GeoMedia Public Works Manager
- GeoMedia Transaction Manager
will not be enhanced any more, because their funcionality will be covered somewhere else (e.g G!NIUS). A rough date for this integration is not available.

One further news: Intergraph released a press release (June 4) announcing their support for Microsoft’s SQL Server 2008 spatial enhancements.
