RAC’s New Canadian Rail Portal is powered by K2 Geospatial’s JMap

K2 Geospatial, the editor of JMap, is pleased to announce the creation of the Canadian Rail Portal. Initiated by the Railway Association of Canada (RAC), the Portal was built using JMap, K2 Geospatial’s map-based integration platform. The idea of the portal arose from a need to provide online access to the Canadian Railway Atlas and its data on Canada’s 45000-km railway network. With JMap, the RAC can now offer a map-based overview of the entire network in real time, along with powerful geospatial tools, all of which are accessed through a user-friendly interface. This visual representation of the network results from a consolidation of data from various private and public sources. The Canadian Rail Portal is poised to become an indispensable tool to plan and manage initiatives in areas such as community involvement, marketing, and emergency response. www.k2geospatial.com
