18 February 2009, 10:42am

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) February 18, 2009 - TerraGo Technologies, a leading provider of geospatial collaboration software solutions, announced today enhancements to its products that add support for the proposed geospatial extensions to ISO 32000 (PDF version 1.7). In related news, the specification for TerraGo's original GeoPDF was recently approved by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) as an OGC Best Practice. By adding support for the ISO 32000 extension, TerraGo customers can now create GeoPDFs that adhere to either specification.

"In keeping with our strategy, we are committed to giving our customers the ability to compose geospatial applications that leverage all types of geo-located information across their enterprise, no matter what the source or publication method," said Rick Cobb, president and CEO of TerraGo Technologies.

"With more than 700 organizations currently using our software to build libraries of geo-enabled PDF files that can be extended across TerraGo's mobile, desktop and web environments, we remain focused on adding value to our customers' GIS investments."
