1Spatial Appoints Guy Perkins as Managing Director for Asia-Pacific

August 31, 2010 -- 1Spatial, provider of intelligent data quality and integration solutions, announces the appointment of Guy Perkins as Managing Director for Asia Pacific, effective immediately.

“1Spatial is delighted to further expand its footprint in the APAC market. Guy brings extensive knowledge and business insight and his appointment reflects our continued commitment to this region and our existing install base”, said Nic Snape, CEO of 1Spatial.

Perkins has over 25 years of experience and extensive knowledge of the geospatial industry. Prior to his current appointment Perkins held various executive management positions with leading organisations in the geospatial industry including ESRI and PitneyBowes MapInfo. Previously, he was also CEO of ER Mapper’s global operations.

His initial focus will be to further strengthen relations with 1Spatial’s existing customer base and partner community and to identify new market opportunities in the Australian and New Zealand region.

The appointment comes at a time when 1Spatial is experiencing significant growth in the Asia-Pacific market place. This market is expanding rapidly with the increase of e-trading initiatives resulting in the need for trusted location-based information. Solutions and services from 1Spatial not only meet this need but also provide significant efficiency gains. PSMA Australia, Queensland Transport and Main Roads and MidCoast Water have already adopted the 1Spatial data centric approach.

Perkins said, “1Spatial is a solid company with a strong foundation in location-based information and delivering excellent value for clients worldwide. I look forward to working closely with the rest of the 1Spatial team to provide outstanding service to our clients in the APAC region”.

Perkins has also been a significant contributor at various times over the years within the geospatial community through organisations including: Geospatial Information Reference Group (GIRG) in Victoria, the Western Australian Land Information System (WALIS), and the National Centre for Social Applications of Geographic Information Systems (GISCA) in South Australia.
