10 actionable tips”: Step by step for a GIS and mapping workstation

Optimisation guide for hardware and software

In Surveying News, Josef Schneider presents 10 customer-oriented measures for setting up a powerful workstation for GIS and mapping projects. The focus is on selecting the right hardware, such as powerful multi-core processors, at least 64 GB of RAM, and high-quality graphics cards to efficiently handle complex calculations and 3D visualizations. It is recommended to use a combination of SSD and HDD to ensure both fast access times and sufficient storage capacity for large data sets. In addition, the selection of suitable high-resolution monitors, an effective cooling system to prevent overheating, and a reliable power supply are discussed. The expandability of the workstation and the protection of data through a secure network connection and backup solutions are also explained in detail to ensure long-term performance and security.
