Der er bare visse ting som er bedst live ... GIS kan være en af disse ting, men langt fra i alle situationer. F.eks et vejnet er godt for en GPS, men hvis real time data om vejarbejder, trafikuheld og anden levende data tilføjes øges værdien af GPS'en betydeligt ...

There are some situations that needs to be live ... GIS can be in such at position but far from always. Say, road data makes a GPS work but real time data about road works and other traffic conditions enhances the device significantly ...

Ten year’s ago real-time geodata was more or less a dream. Five year’s ago most people began to see more real-time data and were talking about it, but it was still something for the adventurous with deep pockets, who could afford to acquire it, process it and distribute it in a useful manner. This is changing as digital sensors, hardware and software are becoming more highly integrated and available.
While analog measurements have long been possible, the integration of spatial information in digital format for many applications often required retrofits, adapting technology, timely conversion or replacement as maintenance costs outpaced operational benefits.
While older applications were often making slower transitions, newer applications could begin with a digital start, embedding high-technologies into many operations that could deliver continuous data streams, often with higher accuracy and lower cost.
The shift to new technologies can be slow in some operations. The high cost of replacement, the need to train staff throughout an organisation and the need to ensure continuous operations are all realities facing those companies seeking to develop new approaches with updated technologies.
Ask anyone involved in the utility space and they will tell you that change is slow moving for those reasons, and that that is why some compnaies are locked in and resistant to change - even in the face of obvious benefits.
