IT3D-DBGS is built upon a very robust GIS technology from GE Energy called Smallworld Core Spatial Technology. You have full vector editing functionality available with several simple mouse clicks.

Feature Editing Functionality

Vertex Editing

You can edit all the vector data in the database using several vertex modification tools. The tools include topological editing functionality. Topological editing allows you to move shared vertices between features. You edit one and the other is updated automatically.

Line Manipulation

There are several line manipulation tools that allow you to quickly modify line geometry. These include the ability to merge separated lines into one feature or degenerate a line where it is very short.

Area Angle Snap

IT3D-DBGS provides tools that allow you to snap the angles on area features. This tool allows you to square corners of buildings where they were not digitized correctly. This is a great time savings and visual enhancement to have a realistic database.

Version Management

The Smallworld Core Spatial technology is provided with built in version management. This version management allows users to manipulate the same area of the database at the same time without the need to do manually controlling files. As long as the same object is not touched in two different alternatives, the changes appear automatically and require very little oversight. You can also preview what data is being changed in an alternative in real time so you can see if your modifications would impact the area a colleague is editing.

The version management technology can support several thousand (this is not a typo!) concurrent editing users. This technology allows you to edit large databases with many people simultaneously to edit databases much more quickly then other solutions.
