Abstract: A computer-implemented method of associating geodata with a collection of display templates is disclosed. The method comprises receiving a selection of two or more display templates configured to graphically represent geodata, grouping the selected display templates into a display template collection, receiving a selection of a first database object comprising geodata, creating a connection between the display template collection and the first database object to enable the geodata to be retrieved from the first database object to the display template collection, and populating the display templates within the display template collection with the geodata retrieved from the first database object. Unlocking insights from Geo-Data, the present invention further relates to improvements in sustainability and environmental developments: together we create a safe and livable world.

Abstract: According to a first aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a computer-implemented method of retrieving data from a database system. The method comprises: receiving, a selection of a location within a database system, wherein the database system comprises one or more databases, wherein data at the identified location within the database system is of a first data format; displaying, a list of one or more publication methods; receiving, a selection of a publication method from the list of one or more publication methods, wherein the selected publication method corresponds to the selected location of the database system; and executing, the selected publication method to interrogate the identified location of the database system, wherein executing the identified publication method produces a data output, wherein the data output comprises data in a second data format different to the first data format.
