Maps, innovations, and data digitization. We’re celebrating 25 years of experience
Thank you for being with us over the past 25 years, during which so much has changed. Thank you for being a part of this change!
For 25 years, we’ve been delivering specialized geospatial solutions and a wide range of IT products and services.
We support you in network asset management and field service management. We help you maximize the potential of digital maps. We guide you through every step of the system and enterprise integration, data digitization, and digital transformation.
We’re constantly growing and setting new, ambitious goals. We create new products, some of which are based on AI/ML (have you already heard about our iDoc? 😉). We also expand to serve new industries (e.g., insurance) and countries (did you know we have clients in 54 countries, such as Malta, Egypt, and South Korea?). We design innovative solutions for our Research & Development projects (primarily for the energy sector, including RES).
All this so we can support companies and organizations in tackling arising challenges. Whether you’re a large American telco operator or a Polish company transporting and assembling furniture in Western Europe – we’re there for you!
