Jump to Website Here
Göteborg, August 8, 2001. Swedish Defence Material Administration (FMV) has signed a general agreement with Carmenta about using Carmenta's GIS Technology SpatialAce(r) within the Swedish Armed Forces.

The agreement will imply an increased use of Carmenta's GIS Technology within the Swedish Armed Forces. SpatialAce(r) has been evaluated by the Airforce, Army and Marine during a long time period and will now be used in a large extent for building Geographic Information Systems.

At the same time FMV has placed an order on 500 installations of SpatialAce(r) which means that the total number of users now exceeds 600.

"The agreement is a breakthrough for Carmenta and shows that we are regarded as a leading actor within Geographic Information Technology" says Gunnar Storm, Managing Director of Carmenta.

SpatialAce(r)is an advanced toolkit for building interactive geographic applications. The SpatialAce(r) technology is designed to meet the exact requirements of high performance interactive real-time applications with 2D or 3D presentations; from simulators and command and control (C3I), to surveillance systems and more traditional GIS applications.

Carmenta is a high-tech software company based in Gothenburg, Sweden. Carmenta provides state-of-the-art GIS and positioning solutions to customers including Civil Aviation Authorities, Airline Companies, Aviation Manufacturers and the Defence Industry. Carmenta develops SpatialAce(r), an advanced toolkit for building interactive geographic applications.
