Dynamic Database Browsing (DDB) provides users with a new way of searching and visualizing data found in PerCon online databases. Using special .KML files, users can not only view data, but search and extract new records simply by moving and manipulating a Google Earth map. Information, such as transmitter locations or towers are displayed automatically as the user zooms into the desired geographic location.
As the user moves the map, data is retrieved from PerCon servers and new results are added to the map display. The search results are returned as interactive points and clicking on any point will provide detailed information for that record in a pop-up window. In addition, towers can be viewed in a 3D mode, giving the user a real sense of the structure height & scale. Users who mainly perform geographic database searches will benefit greatly from this option as they can now search various PerCon databases visually from a single interface. DDB is an optional product to PerCon DataLinks.
