- Time Slider - a set of controls that allows you to visualise projects and their impacts over time.
- Clash detection - Detailing other projects that may clash with yours.
- Opportunity detection - Detailing other projects that may present an opportunity for collaboration.
- Advanced search - For detailed analysis of projects.
- Importing of data - automatically imports and updates data from 3rd party systems.
- Exporting of data - via a Web Feature Service (WFS Feed).
Agile
What was unique about the delivery was that the Agile methodology Scrum was chosen, adopted and largely driven by the client; LINZ. We believe this was one of the first times a government agency has adopted Scrum so wholeheartedly and built themselves into the process so fully. Everything from the supply agreement to delivery and application support has been centred around Scrum.
