Rijkswaterstaat's first objective for the updated atlas was to be certain that the North Sea information would continue to be available to everyone, the public and professionals alike. It was with that goal in mind that it selected ArcGIS Online, after examining the alternatives.\r\n\r\n\"The new atlas is dynamic,\" says Kirsten Culp, project manager at Grontmij GIS &amp; ICT, an Esri Gold-Tier Partner based in de Bilt, the Netherlands, and an adviser in many Rijkswaterstaat projects. \"There must be room for growth and the possibility to add new maps. Rijkswaterstaat wanted to keep the old atlas but in a more modern version, and of course, it had to be accessible to a broad public through PCs, smartphones, and tablets. That's why we had to migrate.\"\r\n\r\nGerard Poot, contractor at Rijkswaterstaat, says, \"You notice the new appearance and texture straight away, because the maps are supplemented by explanatory remarks, photographs, and other illustrations.\"\r\n\r\nDuring this project, Grontmij was assisted by Esri Nederland B.V.\r\n\r\nFor more information, contact\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:ronald.vanlanen@grontmij.nl\">Ronald van Lanen<\/a>, geoinformation consultant, Grontmij,or\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:avandoorn@esri.nl\">Harmen van Doorn<\/a>, Esri Nederland, or visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.noordzeeatlas.nl\/\">www.noordzeeatlas.nl<\/a>."},{"acf_fc_layout":"gallery","gallery_images":[182542,182552,182562]}],"references":null},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v25.9 (Yoast SEO v25.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>The Netherlands&#039; North Sea Atlas Evolves in a World of Devices | Winter 2014 | ArcNews<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Offshore platforms, fish, cables, pipes, and wrecks.
