CORP – Competence Center of Urban and Regional Planning
Abstract
Centrope combines several adjacent regions from the neighbouring countries Austria, Czech Republic, Hungary, and Slovakia. CentropeMAP is a cross-border geoportal which brings together geodatasets from all four contries in a single map viewing application. The layer themes are selected in a way that they are of interest for regional planners and similar professions. CentropeSTATISTICS is a cross-border statistics database directly connected to CentropeMAP. It allows interactive creation of user-defined maps, which are visualised in the CentropeMAP geoportal, and charts wich are delivered as graphic files for further use in any other application. To ensure that CentropeMAP and CentropeSTATISTICS are a well-known tool among planning and statistics experts, multi-language newsletters are released twice a year. In the second half of 2015, there will be a complete relaunch of CentropeMAP and CentropeSTATISTICS including a new geoportal software, a visual refreshment of CentropeSTATISTICS, a new user manual and online tool tips for easier use
