Mapflow puts GeoDirectory on the map.
Mapflow becomes a value added reseller of An Post GeoDirectory.
Dublin, September 15th 2004.
Irish company
Mapflow today announced a value added reseller agreement
with An Post GeoDirectory. GeoDirectory is the national
address database developed by An Post and Ordnance Survey
Ireland that provides the precise co-ordinate of every
building in Ireland. Mapflow is a Dublin based software
company delivering enterprise GIS (Geographic Information
Systems) and LBS (Location Based Services) solutions.
Richard Bryce, CEO of Mapflow comments "Increasingly
our projects are concerned with delivering enterprise wide
deployments of GIS across large organisations in the telecommunications,
financial services and transport sectors. Understanding
customer and address locations is vital to the success
of these programs; GeoDirectory is therefore a valuable
component, giving us an accurate and comprehensive reference
database of every building and its corresponding address
in Ireland."
Bryce continues "we are also encouraged by the investment
that Ordnance Survey Ireland and An Post continue to make
in GeoDirectory, adding on average 25,000 new buildings
each quarter. It is this level of investment which helps
to make GeoDirectory the address database of choice for
large nationwide organisations that need to be able to
respond efficiently to their customers' needs."
Ken Murphy, General Manager of
An Post GeoDirectory comments "Geographical
information has now entered into mainstream decision making,
with most people interacting with a geographic system every
day – be it in applying for car insurance, requesting
a new telephone connection or simply calling a taxi. We're
delighted to welcome Mapflow as a partner."
