The CLAS™ solution provides a variety of integrated GIS and Wireless PDA solutions using the world’s leading GIS and mapping applications (including ESRI, Google and Microsoft) and industry standard PDA devices (including MS OS and Blackberry - soon Palm OS). Each GIS and PDA application has different features and capabilities as well as levels of costs. For example:
- NAI Global can provide the ability to view any property in Google Maps and can expand that capability to include live real time links to Google Earth functions.
- Microsoft provides an expanding GIS solution very similar to Google Maps and Google Earth, that works with CLAS™ live in 3D.
- ESRI, a fully integrated GIS and mapping capability, works with the CLAS™ database for leases, land and properties, buildings and structures and floor and occupancy data as well as providing valuable site selection and market valuations. All of this information is provided real time and is up to date. This dynamic tool changes with a client’s portfolio and surrounding market data.
- Each of these GIS solutions is available wirelessly over the internet with most industry standard PDA devices allowing brokers to negotiate leases using up-to-date data right from their PDA device. Clients can now access their CLAS™ data in the field, wirelessly, at any site in their portfolio and view key data, abstracts, market analytics and much more.
