Stevenage UK, 29 September 2012 -- British developer of geographic information systems (GIS) software, Cadcorp, has formed a partnership with the Belgrade-based geomatics specialist MapSoft Ltd. The 17 person company which was founded in 2002 by academics from the Institute for Geodesy and Geoinformatics at the University of Belgrade, is a respected supplier of software and services to the GIS market in Serbia and surrounding territories.

MapSoft will promote the Cadcorp Spatial Information System® (Cadcorp SIS®) software as a complement to MapSoft’s own data capture product which is widely deployed in cadastral offices, surveying and mapping agencies, local governments and utilities companies in Serbia, the Republic of Srpska, Macedonia, and Montenegro.

“We realised a number of years ago, that as a provider of geomatic solutions we needed to have available a whole range of geoprocessing capabilities and we set about identifying suitable products and companies” said Željko Cvijetinović , Managing Director of MapSoft. “We narrowed our search down to four suppliers, and Cadcorp was one of those.  Cadcorp SIS offers the range of functionality we required and, very importantly for us, it adheres to open standards. Cadcorp employs a dedicated team of knowledgeable specialists and having confidence in the ability of a supplier to support us was critical for our selection.”

“The Serbian market for GIS – especially the municipal GIS market - is characterized by a multiplicity of different software systems and data formats” continued Mr. Cvijetinović . “Cadcorp is well-known for the ability of its products to coexist with other systems. We see Cadcorp SIS fulfilling a role for our customers not just as another GIS, but also as central repository capable of serving multiple systems and applications.”

Mike O’Neil, CEO of Cadcorp said: “In the short time we have been partners, MapSoft has already won significant business in the local government market. We look forward to building on this success with Mr. Cvijetinović and his highly-skilled team.”

MapSoft specialises in aerial and terrestrial photogrammetry, topographic and cadastral surveying and mapping, and in delivering customised GIS solutions customised to their clients’ needs.  The company has created digital orthophoto coverage for 35% of the land area of Serbia.  Through a sister company, MapSoft is also engaged in vehicle tracking and fleet management.
