Business Wire
ITT Visual Information Solutions, a business of ITT Corporation
(NYSE: ITT), announced the newest release of its premier geospatial
image processing and analysis software, ENVI. The new release, ENVI
4.5, allows professionals to integrate geospatial imagery into
geographic information system (GIS) workflows by providing users
with the ability to share data seamlessly between ENVI and ESRI�s
ArcGIS, the world's leading GIS software. �Traditionally considered
a backdrop to GIS, imagery is now being used by professionals in a
variety of industries to acquire geospatial information essential
for critical decision making,� said Richard Cooke, president and
chief operating officer of ITT Visual Information Solutions. �The
integration of ENVI and ArcGIS now allows users to take advantage
of ENVI�s high performance image processing capabilities as a part
of their GIS workflows, providing them with even richer geographic
information.� "Working with a proven leader like ITT Visual
Information Solutions is an excellent solution to extend our users'
imagery capability," said Jack Dangermond, ESRI's president. "ITT's
ability to take advantage of ESRI's already interoperable platform
to provide GIS users with its powerful image processing tools will
greatly enhance users� experience in working with imagery in a GIS
context. The collaboration between ITT VIS and ESRI to bring this
capability to users across a wide variety of industries and
disciplines is an excellent example of Geography in Action.� ENVI
4.5 provides the ability to export any ENVI activity including
processed imagery, vector, classification or extraction results to
the geodatabase for ready use in GIS workflows. ENVI 4.5 supports
enterprise, file and personal geodatabase types. This new
capability gives users of both products increased workflow
efficiencies and time savings when integrating imagery with GIS
applications. In addition, ENVI 4.5 provides direct access to the
full suite of map composition tools available in ESRI�s ArcGIS
Desktop. This allows users to complete image processing and
analysis functions in ENVI and then launch the ArcMap application
of ArcGIS Desktop from within ENVI to generate reports and map
compositions. For more information about ENVI 4.5, visit
