I´m working as a GIS professionalist at a governmental geodata provider.

I´m working with: - ESRI ArcGIS Server and Desktop - FME Server and Desktop - Visual Studio 2010 Professional (for .NET programming) - Netbeans 7.2 (for the java stuff) - Python for smaller scripting tasks - SQL Server (Geometry) - PostGIS, Geoserver, OpenLayers, GeoWebCache, etc...

comment WGS84 - how to convert
if i put these coordinates in google maps i am quite near to rumunska street (maps.google.at/…). Depending on what type of GPS you use, and how long you did take to record the position, I think thats not so bad. Urban Areas can be nasty for good quality GPS positioning. I don'tthink the coordinates are misinterpreted, they are just the way they are.

comment WGS84 - how to convert
Have you tried decimal minutes? Can't say much, when I don't see some example coordinates, so I can have a look which value domains are there. Would also help to know which region on the earth it should be.

comment Looking for examples on how GIS techniques facilitate utility surveying and management
I'm not experienced in utility management, so just my few cents to this. It's simple to store survey data to utilities together with management data in a spatial database (it doesn't really matter if your company uses database vendor A or B). What counts more is the interface to integrate into your business cases. There are plenty of turnkey solutions for this, I think Autodesk (autodesk.com/industry/civil-infrastructure/…) and GE Smallworld (gedigitalenergy.com/newsletter/june_2011/Industry_News/…) should be evaluated.

comment How to Create database using OGC compliant geometries and Custom type Geometries?
For sure, thats what these database types are made for...what is your question actually? The latter types you mentioned (arrow, symbols) are not part of the OGC Simple Features Specification as far as I know.

comment How to convert a shapefile to WKT?
Unfortunately QGIS does not tell you if its a MultiPolygon, it only say "Polygon" to both of them. I haven't tried yet, but ogrinfo should tell you exactly what Featuretype your Shapefile is (gdal.org/ogrinfo.html)

comment How to batch-process georeferencing of rasters (prelude to animation)?
ah ok, I thought you are talking about tiles, where each tile covers another geographic area. Knowing that, Dango's answer is completely right. I would do this with some simple DOS shell commands and a little Batch scripting. Not very elegant, but efficient. Use "dir /b *.tif > list.txt" to get a list of all filenames, import it in Excel, extend it with the copy commands to copy the manually created georeference to each raster file, save this as .bat and execute it...

Is your shape MULTIPOLYGON?

Are you talking about the definition of the spatial reference (same for each raster) or the world files (nearly the same by means of pixel dimension and size, but not by insertion coordinate)? Do the filenames contain the insertion coordinate implicitely? How are the files named?

comment How to batch-process georeferencing of rasters (prelude to animation)?
This will only work if all rasters share the same coordinate. In a world file, you have to modify the coordinate corresponding to each raster also.

comment What GIS editors work with GIS data that is stored in SQL-Server
Not completely correct. ArcGIS 10 introduced the Query Layer, where you can (only read) almost every native spatial database type directly without SDE or enterprise geodatabase. But you are right, when it comes to editing, you need at least ArcEditor and SDE. In 10.1 database connection mainly uses th new query layer approach. Seems that ESRI realized, that their users don't want to extra pay for database access anymore.
