Wacom and GIS/Mapping
The Wacom interactive pen display gives GIS professionals an unprecedented level of control, comfort, and productivity. By using a Wacom pen directly on the screen, geologists find they can easily edit maps as well as manage, analyze, and disseminate geographic information individually or in a group setting. Cartographers, geophysicists, and civil engineers also find that working with a Wacom pen display helps them quickly digitize or ink graphics with ease.

The Wacom DTZ-2100 is the best choice for GIS professionals. It has a larger screen, higher resolution, and a cleverly-designer stand that lets you rotate and tilt the Wacom pen display to reach the exact position you need. The Wacom Grip Pen's absolute precision provides unmatched control of the cursor in any GIS application. For modeling, the Wacom pen allows you to virtually touch vertices, splines, and surfaces in a direct way while the ExpressKeys and Touch Strips provide two-handed control for zooming, panning, and quick access to shortcut keys.

The DTZ-2100 also enhances many of the features included in ESRI's ArcGIS® software suite. With ArcMap, you can quickly move through editing sessions naturally by using the pen directly on the screen to select coordinates, snap vertices, or points. Combine Wacom's patented, battery-free, cordless pen technology with the built-in ArcMap pen tools and you can easily ink graphics on any map or image.

Federal, state, and local authorities can improve communication among units and helps officials efficiently organize the deployment of resources during emergency response by using the Wacom pen display with an overhead projection system or plasma screen to mark-up images and maps.
