Gardiner, Maine – July 13, 2007 - Blue Marble Geographics (www.bluemarblegeo.com) is offering their GeoTranslate 5.0 release free to all licensed GeoCalc users. GeoTranslate will allow developers to embed on the fly vector GIS reprojection and translation capability within custom software applications. Together, these toolkits can create powerful GIS data conversion applications, in which GeoCalc tackles all aspects of coordinate conversion, and GeoTranslate handles all vector and CAD file translation and direct geometry manipulation, allowing applications to seamlessly translate from one file format to another. Blue Marble’s data conversion technology is used worldwide by thousands of GIS analysts at software companies, universities, oil and gas companies, civil engineering, surveying, technology, enterprise GIS groups, government and military organizations.
If your company is a licensed user of GeoCalc, simply visit www.bluemarblegeo.com to download your copy of GeoTranslate. Follow the instructions provided, and a Blue Marble representative will provide you with a license file. This offer grants you free internal-use-only access to the GeoTranslate library to develop test applications, data conversion utilities or geometry.
“GeoTranslate 5.0 represents the new direction in which Blue Marble is steering its technology. Now that both GeoCalc and GeoTranslate have similar architecture, Blue Marble is one step closer to an interchangeable, plug-n-play developer tool suite based on strong geodetics for powerful geospatial conversion” remarked Blue Marble’s President Patrick Cunningham.
