Three New European Partners
In October, we announced two new participants in our partner program, from Brazil and South Africa, that will help us support open source geospatial technologies for a significant base of users in the Southern Hemisphere. The past few weeks, we’ve been very excited to announce three new partnerships in Europe, ensuring that geospatial service providers can offer open source solutions to clients in Greece, Cyprus, Spain, Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
GET Ltd., based in Athens, is a dominant provider of geoinformatic marketing and service solutions in Greece and Cyprus. Their mission is to provide solutions for easy access to quality local geographic information to both the general public and advanced users. Across the Mediterranean, Geodata Sistemas is a leading GIS services company with over a decade of experience serving Spanish administrations responsible for territorial management. Geodata advocates the use of open source technologies in order to make those applications and data accessible to a range of users—from technical personnel to the general public. Finally, hailing from Bonn, Germany, terrestris GmbH & Co. KG specializes in spatial data infrastructures as well as open source geoportals. The company proudly maintains a strong presence in the international open source GIS community, and will support work with us to serve the German, Swiss, and Austrian markets.
Through service provider agreements with OpenGeo, these companies will be able to offer their clients solutions based upon the OpenGeo Suite, our OGC standards–compliant web mapping platform that includes GeoServer, OpenLayers, GeoWebCache, PostGIS, and GeoExt. Together, we’re making it easier, faster, and more affordable for European organizations to deploy compelling geospatial applications online.
We work every day to make geospatial information more open by developing technologies that enable collaboration, accessibility and transparency. Our partnerships are an amazing way to help more organizations and communities use these tools and receive support from regional experts, so keep an eye out for more OpenGeo dispatches from distant lands!
