Cadcorp is extremely pleased to announce that a distribution agreement has been signed with Oslo based Geo Graphics AS. This is Cadcorp's third Nordic partner to be signed in recent months.

Geo Graphics offer a wide range of geospatial services to the Norwegian market including the provision of GIS solutions for environmental management, planning/ construction and agriculture, the supply of digital data tailored to customer requirements, database development and administration, object-orientated programming, general consultancy, product installation and training.

Rodney Leek of Geo Graphics stated: "We have a wide range of skills and experience vital to the GIS business. We came across and evaluated Cadcorp SIS and found that it offered many compelling reasons for us to get involved with the software. These included excellent 'out-of-the-box' support for a wide range of GIS and database formats (including Oracle 8i Spatial), world leading OpenGIS conformance, and the neat integration of the product range across the desktop modules, developer kits and Web products. Cadcorp SIS is powerful tool to build and hold a GIS solution together".

Neil Fulton, Cadcorp Sales and Business Manager, Nordic Region added: “Recently Cadcorp has specifically targeted the Nordic countries for expansion of our international sales of Cadcorp SIS. Late in 2001, we signed agreements with Centroid in Finland, Metria in Sweden and now in March 2002, Geo Graphics in Norway. Growth of our Nordic business will continue to be a focus and through our relationship with Geo Graphics, we are exited by the prospects of winning business in the Norwegian GIS market”
