Ive been using Georgia 100 and the Geographic Reporter. Whats new in Georgia 2000?
Georgia 2000 employs all the functionality of Georgia 100 (demographic reporting, creating custom study areas, and map making) and transfers that capability to the Web. Whereas the Georgia 100 system requires extensive training and was limited to 19 stand-alone Unix workstations, Georgia 2000 is available free to anyone with a Web browser, and can be learned within an hour. Furthermore, unlike the Geographic Reporter, Georgia 2000 allows the user to create custom study areas and delivers mapmaking capability “on the fly.” Although Georgia 100 is a quality application, especially for the time in which it was created (1993), changes in technology, particularly the explosion of the Internet, demand that we deliver our product to a much larger population of users.
