Q11 How can framework data be used in information system applications?
A11 Many Canadian organizations are using framework data in
information applications that cover a wide range of uses. Some examples
of the application of framework data that illustrate its potential use
include:
- Geo Portal for Eeyou Istchee, an Internet portal to help an Aboriginal community to manage tourism and land use harmoniously.
- MapSherpa, an on-line mapping service that allows users to make maps for their personal, organizational or customer needs.
- Radio Mobile, freeware that was developed for
amateur radio users to help predict radio frequency patterns and the
performance of radio systems.
- National Forestry Information System, an information infrastructure to provide answers on matters relating to sustainable forest management in Canada.
- Online Injury Atlas for Ontario, a password
protected Web site that allows health care workers to view
the distributions of injuries by type and age ranges, according to
census subdivisions or local health integration network (LHIN) areas.
