Who we are

The team at Snowflake are dedicated and focussed on making GML easy to use. With over 50 years combined experience, our technical expertise has enabled us to design a product suite to take the complexity out of GML. With point and click GUI interfaces and desktop features, our products get you up and running with GML in just hours.

What we do

Our software solutions provide off-the-shelf technology to help you enjoy the benefits of GML quickly and easily, without the need for in-depth technical knowledge. GO Loader and GO Publisher literally put XML and GML to work.

GO Loader enables reliable, easy and quick integration of GML data formats - such as OS MasterMap®, NEN3610, IMRO, AAA-NAS - into Oracle. GO Publisher ensures the easy translation and publication of XML and GML from any data model to any given schema.

Whether you need to read and load GML or translate and publish, we have the solution.

Where we fit

Snowflake has been instrumental in the GIS industry by helping drive the adoption of open standards. Acknowledged as experts in the field of GML/XML, we have been actively participating in the initiatives of organisations such as the OGC, helping define open standards and encourage the adoption of generic technology to support interoperability across national and international borders.

Who we work with

Snowflake has been working with government clients - such as DEFRA, ODPM, and Ordnance Survey - and corporate clients - such as IBM, Accenture, BT and QinetiQ - since 2001. Our solutions are proven ( see case studies ) by the most demanding applications, supporting commercial and e-Government initiatives. The international implementation of our product suites is proof itself that GML is the de facto way to share and access data across corporations.
