April 08, 2014 -- Europa Technologies is delighted to announce that it is now able to supply definitive digital map data for Northern Ireland. Europa Technologies has recently signed a distribution agreement with Land & Property Services (LPS), the government department responsible for the manufacture and distribution of Ordnance Survey of Northern Ireland (OSNI) digital map products.

This new development enables Europa Technologies to supply the full range of OSNI data products, both for complete coverage of Northern Ireland and for bespoke areas where required. Data will be available in a wide range of data formats, making it ready for use by end users.

The addition of definitive digital map data for Northern Ireland complements the data that Europa Technologies already supplies for Great Britain from Ordnance Survey. Together, this means that the Europa Technologies data portfolio now offers complete coverage for the whole of the United Kingdom, something that is important to organisations operating across the UK.

Duncan Hill, Business Development Manager, comments: "I am very pleased that we are now able to better support our existing customers with the addition of OSNI data to our product portfolio. This has already benefited an important utilities customer and we look forward to helping other organisations in a similar way in the near future. Furthermore, we are excited about the opportunity to enable OSNI data to be consumed as Data-as-a-Service (DaaS) through our viaEuropa hosted map service, something that has been particularly popular for Ordnance Survey data for Great Britain."

Jim Lennon, Head of Geospatial Development, LPS, comments: "I am pleased to welcome Europa Technologies as a distributor of OSNI data. Our data for Northern Ireland is critical for a broad range of organisations and we are delighted that Europa Technologies will help us to reach an even wider, global audience."
