CGSE Unveils Navigation System for NY's Central Park PDF Print E-mail
Written by CGSE   
Friday, 18 July 2008

LAS VEGAS, July 16 -- Columbus Geographic Systems (GIS) Ltd. ("Columbus") (Pink Sheets: CGSE) today launched a new product demo for an advanced navigation application for New York's Central Park.




The demo is available at http://www.columbusgis.com/CentralParkDemo.asp

Central Park contains several lakes and ponds, extensive walking tracks, ice-skating rinks, a zoo, a wildlife sanctuary, and large areas of natural woods. With about 25 million visitors annually, it is the most visited city park in the United States

Columbus' navigation application for Central Park is based on the company's off-road navigation tool, Ranger. The new product demo clearly displays mapping and aerial imagery of the park including over 200 points of interest, and enables visitors to find their own location at any given point. It is very easy to use and works on a range of Personal Navigation Devices (PND).

"Central Park is a true island of open space in Manhattan, one of the world's greatest urban areas. Our navigation system is specifically designed for such an open environment and will enable visitors to enjoy the park even more," says Columbus CEO Tsvika Freidman. "We are confident this application can be used in other large city and national parks in the US and other countries around the world."
