Online Land Rush with Lat49.com Mapvertising

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

IDELIX Creates Online Land Rush with Lat49.com Mapvertising
Ad network puts brands on the map and taps a new audience

September 17, 2007 – TechCrunch40 Conference, San Francisco – IDELIX Software Inc. announced today the launch of lat49, a new mapvertising network that opens a whole new online territory to advertisers who want precise, intuitive geo- targeting to a large and relatively untapped online audience. The patents- pending ad serving solution is optimized for online, interactive maps and provides map-site publishers with a viable revenue model suited to their user behavior and site traffic.

On-map advertising, known as mapvertising, provides advertisers with a unique opportunity to execute both brand and local advertising initiatives in an interactive online environment. Advertisers buy the exclusive advertising rights to map real estate using the lat49 self-serve interface. An advertiser’s ad placements display each time a site visitor using a lat49 partner map views the advertiser’s territory. Land parcels can be bought at multiple zoom levels to suit the goals of the particular advertising campaign. Owning the map’s most zoomed out country view will support branding initiatives while local advertisers may choose to regionally tune their messaging and target the local, street, neighborhood, or urban level audiences.

85% of all Internet users use online maps * but this audience has been virtually out of reach to advertisers until now. Other ad serving technologies currently competing for the online marketer’s dollar are not optimized for the Ajax and Flash/ActionScript technologies used to build interactive map sites, so they experience key issues with ad relevancy, ad refresh, and reduced usability due to forfeited screen real estate.

“Lat49 opens a new and growing interactive distribution channel through which advertisers can execute local, hyper-local, and brand advertising strategies,” commented IDELIX CEO Philip Attfield. “On the publisher side, we’ve had tremendously positive feedback from the developer community and large commercial sites for whom lat49 presents a revenue model ideally suited to their user behavior and site traffic.”

“The high visibility of lat49 ads is a key factor in making map based advertising successful for both publishers and advertisers,” noted Andrew Bidochko, founder of Mapbuilder.net, a rapid mashup development tool that allows users to build custom Google and Yahoo maps without any API/JavaScript knowledge.

Lat49 publisher websites target a range of vertical markets that include travel, social networking, sports and recreation, traffic, weather, news, events, and more. Profiles of some members of the lat49 network and featured advertisers are available at http://lat49.com/partners/websites.php.

“We have a compelling approach to location-aware advertising, which is a huge, growing market,” states IDELIX Chief Technical Officer Dr. David Baar. “Whether delivering ads appropriate to the user’s area of interest as expressed by where they are looking on a map or by any other indicator of location such as those available on mobile devices, we have in lat49 a precise, intuitive way for advertisers to geotarget. Lat49 includes precisely defined coverage areas and ad selection/presentation heuristics that are easy for both advertisers and site publishers to understand and work with.”

See a live demo of lat49 in the Demo Pit at TechCrunch 40 on Sept 18 or visit http://lat49.com for more information, or to start mapvertising now.

Safe Software to Demonstrate Technology for Data Exchange between Proprietary and Open Source Platforms at FOSS4G

Tuesday September 18th 2007
Filed Under Safe Software 

Vancouver, BC- September 17, 2007 – Safe Software, the recognized leader in providing spatial ETL (extract, transform and load) tools for translating and transforming spatial data, today announced that the company is sponsoring and presenting at the Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial (FOSS4G) conference in Victoria, BC, from September 24-27. Conference attendees will have several opportunities to learn how the company’s FME platform can play an important role in improving the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of geospatial systems by serving as a bridge for exchanging data between open source and proprietary software.

“Open source software was once viewed as an interesting side note to an industry dominated by proprietary systems,” explains Don Murray, President of Safe Software. “However, this is not the case today. Many organizations are searching for ways to build hybrid geospatial systems that leverage the complimentary benefits offered by both commercial and open source solutions.”

A challenge that often hinders the development of efficient hybrid systems is a lack of interoperability between the various proprietary and open source system components. Interoperability issues arise from the fact that almost every spatial data application employs a unique model for storing spatial data. Traditionally, geospatial professionals have had to write their own code or modify scripts to manage data exchange between these dissimilar data models – both of which are costly and time-consuming approaches. With FME as an alternative, users have access to a single tool that allows them to architect virtually any required data model transformation. The transformation can be designed ahead of time via an easy-to-use graphical interface and then applied automatically whenever data is exchanged.

“With the interoperability technology provided by FME, organizations can exploit the benefits of both worlds,” says Dale Lutz, VP of Product Development at Safe Software. “Users can continue working with familiar proprietary tools that meet their specific needs, but they can also easily incorporate open source databases, libraries or web-based solutions into their overall system.”

Safe Software will host a hands-on lab session at FOSS4G that will employ six different scenarios to showcase the diversity of components from the open source stack that can be accessed using FME – components such as such as PostGIS, PostgreSQL, MySQL

Safe Software’s FME 2007 Steps Up Support for European Formats and Coordinate Systems

Wednesday September 12th 2007
Filed Under Safe Software 

Vancouver, BC- September 12, 2007 – Safe Software today announced that the latest release of its spatial ETL (extract, transform, and load) platform, FME 2007, offers extensive enhancements focused on the needs of the European geospatial community. Released in June, FME 2007 represents the most recent of several offerings from Safe Software that have allowed GIS and IT professionals in many European countries to more effectively address the challenges of working with new national standards. National data models and other country-specific formats make up more than 30 of the 190 GIS, CAD, raster and database formats supported by FME. With enhanced support for several of these national schemas and new support for important European coordinate systems, FME 2007 will play an important role in allowing central, regional and local governments and other organizations to more easily manage and exchange geospatial data.

“As the de facto leader in providing data interoperability solutions, Safe has always felt a responsibility to support European users,” says Don Murray, President of Safe Software. “In FME 2006 GB, and now FME 2007, we have made a concerted effort to expand support for formats and coordinate systems that will allow European users to expedite the integration of new national standards.”

New Software Allows ESRI Users To Make Cross-section Presentations in Minutes Not Days

Wednesday September 12th 2007
Filed Under ESRI 

DENVER, Colorado, September 12, 2007 – A-Prime software, a leader in developing ArcGis plug-in applications, announced today the launch of its new wizard-based platform for ESRI’s ArcGis users. The product, CrossView Earth Surfaces, allows GIS professionals, such as environmental engineers, geologists, mining analysts, planners, construction developers, gain broader and more intimate access to geo-spatial terrains and subsurfaces.

By integrating rich geo-data with simple yet demonstrative cross-section visualizations, CrossView creates powerful cross-section presentations in minutes not hours, saving both time and money.

“Before CrossView, GIS professionals had to deal with the time exhausting process of using outside software to gain a better visual perspective of their work fields,” says A-Prime’s Vice President Scott David. “CrossView eliminates this learning curve, making the most out of the ArcGIS skills they already have – which simplifies their workflow and increases overall productivity. By allowing GIS professionals to create cross sections on the fly we hope to streamline a process that takes needless man-hours and ultimately reduce costs for GIS users across the board.”

Created by GIS professionals in response to the limitations in ESRI’s current mapping platforms, the key to CrossView is its seamless integration with the entire ArcGIS workflow. “It’s a completely intuitive program that we hope will make GIS users wonder why it hadn’t been there all along,”

says David. “It unearths the spatial information resident within a user’s existing geo-database. Whether it is raster, point, line, or polygon data, CrossView gives users a robust and simple presentation perspective through mapping profiles or cross sections of their ESRI ArcGIS geo-database.”

“As a geographer my research field is the Niagara Escarpment in Niagara, Orleans & Munroe Counties of western New York State,” says Robert Lord. “I am most interested in its topography, microclimates, glacial drainage and current river valley profiles. CrossView was able to give me more detail from the DEMs that I will be able to use in my classes and in my research.”

“Looking at the time I’ve spent working with other programs that do the same thing and the time wasted by using outside software to get a publishable product, CrossView is definitely worth it to me,” says GIS Technician and Hydrogeology Research Assistant, Jay Hanson. “I rate CrossView a 10 out of 10 overall.”

CrossView Earth Surfaces is available for only $499 at www.aprimesoftware.com or by calling 877-MAP-DOWN.About CrossView

An intuitive, wizard-based GIS plug-in, CrossView Earth Surfaces is the premier cross-sectioning tool for complementing the ESRI ArcGIS. workflow.

CrossView helps ArcGIS users gain a broader and more intimate access to geo-spatial terrains and sub-surfaces by integrating rich geo-data with simple yet demonstrative cross-section visualizations. With applications to suit professionals from environmental engineers and mining analysts to planners and construction developers, CrossView makes GIS easier, saving both time and money. By creating powerful cross-section presentations in minutes not hours, CrossView drastically hastens the workflow of today’s GIS professionals, eliminating the need to reformat or relearn outside software while maximizing the skills and tools GIS users already have.

Wayland, MA, September 5, 2007 – Six of the nine regional 2007 “The User and the GEOSS Architecture” [http://www.ogcnetwork.net/GEOSSdemos]
workshops organized by the IEEE, ISPRS and OGC have been completed. In regional scientific application scenarios, the workshops demonstrate publishing, discovery, and access of complex geospatial data and online processing services using existing OGC standards consistent with the architecture principals of the GEOSS 10 Year Implementation Plan.

Most recently, “The Impact of Climate Change and Variability on Biodiversity and Energy in the Arctic” was demonstrated by Compusult, CIESIN and IMAA-CNR on 19-20 August 2007. The workshop was part of IPY GeoNorth, the First International Circumpolar Conference on Geospatial Sciences and Applications, held in Yellowknife, N.W.T., Canada.

Prior to that workshop, “Sustainable development through Earth Observation, Agriculture,” led by the University of New Mexico, was held at the IEEE/GRSS 32nd International Symposium on Remote Sensing of Environment (ISRSE) June 29, 2007 in San Jose, Costa Rica.
And “GEOSS System and Interoperability – Sahara Dust and Ocean Productivity Over the Mediterranean,” led by Washington University (St. Louis, MO, USA), was held July 22, 2007 in Barcelona, Spain at the IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS).

Upcoming workshops include: “Earth Observation to benefit Water and Health,” at AfricaGIS07, September 15-16 in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso; “Regional Decisions for Climate Change,”
September 21-22 in Boulder, CO, USA; and “Environment Disaster/Tsunami,” November 14 at the Asian Association on Remote Sensing (AARS) Asian Conference on Remote Sensing (ACRS) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

The Boulder workshop will be held in conjunction with the September
2007 OGC Technical Committee and Planning Committee meetings, which are being hosted by the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The demonstration will address access to Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Data Distribution Centres for data to support regional decision makers considering the predicted effects of climate change. The keynote speaker will be Dr. Robert Corell, Director, Global Change Program at the H. John Heinz III Center for Science, Economics and the Environment; Senior Policy Fellow, American Meteorological Society; and co-chair of the Arctic Council climate impact assessment (ACIA). Speaking of the OGC standards that are a critical component of the GEOSS architecture, Dr. Corell said, “Developing the bridge of climate predictions with regional decision makers is a vital step to planning for our future.”
