This innovative solution at the State Property Service of the Dutch Ministry of Finance brings location into the SAP database. Tens of thousands of state properties and facilities and millions of parcels are now managed and spatially enabled with this unique SAP-GIS integrated solution. With one push of a button, all business entities objects in SAP are visualized on the fly in a highly detailed map in the SAP browser without leaving the SAP user interface.

This true integration of geospatial (related) content in a business administration system led to quickly finding, visualizing, and calculating state properties related to visual, administrative, and contract information of all cadastral objects stored in SAP. Users are now able to positively affect revenues by delivering important business information and optimizing the support of business processes. The solution is delivered with high customer satisfaction.

A user friendly (SAP) interface for the end-user for combined administrative and geospatial data offers only the needed data and GIS functionality in one screen.  Automated maintenance workflows, implemented by graphical redline techniques enable SAP end users to define needed modifications to the geospatial data.  The system is based on industry standards, open data formats, web services and service oriented architecture.  This enables the State Property Service to easily exchange geospatial data with other information systems and organizations.

A massive amount of geospatial data and related documents are integrated, stored, managed, indexed, and easily found. For example, 2.5 million cadastral parcels (in vector format), cartographic (raster) basemaps in different scales, over 60.000 real estate properties and 20.000 user rights.
