Navigation Technologies, a
provider of digital maps for vehicle navigation, Internet / wireless
applications and business solutions, and ESRI, a geographic
information system (GIS) software provider, have signed a reseller agreement to make
Navtech digital map data available directly to ESRI customers. The key
benefit to ESRI customers is a simplified process for purchasing and accessing
Navtech map data.
The companies say this agreement reflects both organizations' commitment to providing
customers with the industry's highest quality products and services. Through
this arrangement, Navtech digital map data is available for integration into
ESRI's Route Server for ArcIMS application as well as other ESRI GIS
solutions. ESRI and
Navigation Technologies support many of the same customers in both the
government and commercial markets making this reseller agreement beneficial
for all customers interested in utilizing Navtech digital map data within ESRI
applications.
The company says Navtech digital map data offers ESRI customers the accuracy and precision
to meet their routing, logistics and overall GIS requirements. Navtech
maps are infused with more than 150 attributes such as turn restrictions,
dividers and barriers and one-way streets, making it some of the richest map
data available for routing, fleet management and logistics solutions.
"Through this agreement, ESRI and Navigation Technologies will be able to
provide GIS users with an easy way to procure software and data that meets
their needs," said Jack Dangermond, ESRI president. "Navigation Technologies
provides quality map data that enables users to develop strong applications."
"We are excited about this arrangement and feel it offers great
opportunity for both ESRI and its customers. We feel confident ESRI customers
will find the accuracy and navigability of our data a true differentiating
advantage within their GIS solutions," said John MacLeod, executive vice
president - Global Marketing & Strategy for Navigation Technologies.
