December 03, 2009 -- The GeoInformation® Group today announces that two of the UK’s longest and most established geographic information suppliers are backing UKMap by committing to become its first resellers.

Map Mechanics, London, specialists in the supply of transportation and geodemographic data, and Stanfords, London, the world-renowned map reseller, have signed agreements to enable them to resell UKMap to their customer base.

Both companies will offer the entire UKMap pack through their direct sales channels and in the case of Stanfords an online solution is currently being planned. Stanfords is also offering innovations such as the delivery of UKMap in DXF format for the architectural market.

Stanfords and MapMechanics have also committed staff to UKMap training courses to enable them to give the very best advice and support on the use of UKMap for their customers.
