View Geometry gives you the ability to open a read-only version of an Editable Database dataset. Within an enterprise, anyone who is not required to have editable access to data can be given access to Editable Database datasets as non-editable overlays via the View Geometry. This circumvents the requirement of having to involve database administrators to set the appropriate database privileges.
As well as the SIS V6 ASCII format, SIS supports the following open formats for reading Blob type data:
In theory, it should be possible for SIS to read Blobs data generated by other GIS vendors who have used one of the open formats.
See Cadcorp View Geometry for details of creating a View Geometry overlay.
