- Spatial selections may return incorrect results
- Data cannot be shared with other organisations
- Maps are unattractive

With
- unprecedented accuracy
- GIS platform independence
- Powerful Reporting and QA tools

View a short demonstration of topology cleaning on SQL Server 2008.
Topo Manager's sophisticated routines clean incorrect topology allowing for better mapping and spatial analysis.
The user can create scripts using the form above, retrieve and run the necessary script, run sections of the script, to create clean topology.
