<p class=MsoNormal>Program Offers Enterprise-Wide Access to ArcGIS Software and
Accurate Street Data for Small Municipalities and Counties <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Redlands, California—April 9, 2009—Tele Atlas, a
leading global provider of digital maps and dynamic content for navigation and
location-based solutions, has joined ESRI's Small Municipal and County
Government Enterprise License Agreement (ELA) program to provide local
governments with enterprise-wide licenses for ESRI’s ArcGIS software and
Tele Atlas’ comprehensive street data to power essential GIS deployments.
The ESRI Small Municipal and County Government Enterprise License Agreement
(ELA) program will help local governments better serve their citizens with
functionality to perform emergency response and preparedness, permitting and
inspection, incident/crime analysis, hazardous materials inventory, planning
and many other vital government functions and services. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Many smaller governments do not have the financial resources
or personnel to leverage the GIS software and data that could protect lives and
property while saving time and money. Through the ESRI ELA, local governments
gain access to a central, enterprise-wide resource that can provide seamless
geocoding, mapping and routing functionality across all of the local
government’s departments and agencies. The license permits
enterprise-wide access to ESRI’s ArcGIS software and Tele Atlas’
highly accurate street data for a period of three years. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>ESRI President Jack Dangermond says, “Tele
Atlas’ participation in the Small Municipal and County Government ELA
program is in keeping with our long-standing collaboration. By making our
combined services available through one agreement, Tele Atlas and ESRI put the
geographic approach to solving problems within easy reach of local
governments.” <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>“Tele Atlas and ESRI have always worked together to
bring data to governments when they need it most,” said John Cassidy,
Vice President of GIS and Government for Tele Atlas. “The most exciting
aspect of this collaboration is the ability to quickly and easily enable GIS
capabilities to help local government best serve its citizens.” <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The ESRI Small Municipal and County Government ELA program
provides access to the spatial technology that local governments need with a
straightforward three-tiered pricing schedule. The program is designed for
governments in the United States that serve populations of 100,000 or less. <o:p></o:p></p>
