Latitude Technologies announced today that it had reached agreement with Maptuit Corporation to use Maptuit’s proprietary web-based map generation and retrieval service.  Maptuit Corporation is a leading supplier of eGeo services with geographic coverage including North America, Western Europe and selected countries within South Asia.

To ensure total interoperability, Latitude previously completed configuration and field-testing of the Maptuit map engine platform with Latitude’s LWS Sentinel wireless data management system.  SkyNode LMC and other LMC product users who have a LWS Sentinel subscription are now able to store and retrieve real-time and historic  online map presentations of asset location and tracking.

Mark Insley, President and Chief Engineer of Latitude Technologies, made today’s announcement.  Giving recognition to Maptuit, Mr. Insley said, “Latitude Technologies is very pleased to count Maptuit among our community of business partners.  Maptuit’s map generation capabilities are world-class in every respect.”  Mr. Insley concluded, “Our partnership with Maptuit now allows Latitude to provide an end-to-end solution for any company, government agency or individual interested in location and operational-status tracking for commercial or personal aircraft, on and off-road vehicles and marine craft – all for less than $30 a month.”
