Hello,
I've got a really challenging question received from a customer !
The domain is Heritage buildings protection.
An architect/historian evaluates the value of buildings and gives them a mark.
He then presents his proposal in a PowerPoint :
- Identification info
- Description
- Mark
- Label
- etc.
- Pictures
The proposal is reviewed in several sessions, with different people. The mark may be upgraded or downgraded, the label changed, etc.
Once validated, the data is to be captured in an SDE geodatabase. Presently, this is done in two different ways :
- Manually
- Manually copying the data to Excel and it is imported in GDB with FME
But in both cases, there is a non profit-adding step, which is to manually copy the data.
Does anyone out there have an idea how to skip this step ?
Could the PowerPoint presentation be structured in such a way (with keywords for instance) that could make the content recognizable and importable directly ?
I have thought of different ways but I'd rather keep it open for your input !
Kind regards,
Tim
