Spatial Data Creation


Create, map and manage spatial features from tabular legal descriptions


TGS-Spatial Data Creation (TGS-SDC) gives you the tools to automatically create spatial data from textual descriptions using the latest Tobin GIS Studio and ESRI ArcGIS 9™ technologies. Extending the functionality of ArcGIS to the specific needs of upstream energy companies, TGS-SDC is configurable to any land system with formatted legal descriptions and an OLE DB compliant database.


Tobin GIS Studio Spatial Data Creation 1


Map your land assets with ease

TGS can map legal descriptions throughout the world including:

  • Latitude/Longitude
  • Survey systems such as Jeffersonian Survey, Texas legal descriptions and Offshore areas
  • Metes & Bounds

TGS-SDC enables less experienced users to effortlessly access the power of GIS.


Map your land assets with other related textual and spatial data

Once you create your own spatial data, TGS-SDC enables you to visually integrate business information with related spatial data, thus facilitating better decision making from a map view.


Manage your information more effectively

Highly integrated with Tobin Enterprise Land and Excalibur, TGS-SDC adapts to varying business workflows and eliminates the need for separate storage of spatial data in multiple shapefiles or databases. Consolidate and streamline your business workflow using your geodatabase to store all of your spatial data for related land assets.
