Main topic

From a press release: Graham has over 20 years experience in the geospatial industry. His career began in the early 1980s as a Research Hydrologist involved in Catchment Modeling and Remote Sensing. He went on to work in the UK Water Industry as a consultant in Digital Mapping and GIS and then joined ESRI in the late 1980s. At ESRI Graham was involved in particular in the data model extensions for Dynamic Segmentation and regions and worked on the integration of spatial data with Management Information Systems. Graham then joined Unisys as Business Development Manager for EMEA where he again was involved in the integration of spatial data into enterprise-wide systems. In 1995 he joined Exor Corporation where he was initially responsible for their Spatial Strategy and Business Development. Graham moved on to become Product Director, steering product direction through market input and customer demand for all Exor products in the Highways and Utilities arena and worked closely with Oracle on the design of linear referencing into Oracle Spatial at Oracle9i and more recently on the integration of Exor systems with the Oracle e-Business Suite.
