Dec. 4, 2012 -- Rolta today announced the launch of Rolta OnPoint Mobile, a new
application that allows organizations to quickly publish
location-enabled services that are secure, tailored to specific users
and cross-platform compatible.
The capability extends the reach and value of Rolta's OnPoint suite
of products, a sophisticated web-Geospatial Information Solution (GIS)
that enables organizations to publish geographic-enriched information
quickly and securely over the Internet while integrating content from
transactional systems. Rolta OnPoint Mobile responds to the need to
effectively integrate key business processes to support workflows and
personnel that are increasingly becoming more mobile. It eases the
workload of the IT department, which can now use HTML5.0 instead of
developing compiled OS-dependent mobile applications.
"This new capability is ideal for public sector organizations working
to boost tourism, enhance economic development initiatives, public
safety programs, and many other services," said Jason Cory,
president of Rolta North America. "Municipalities that have deployed
OnPoint Mobile have achieved cost savings and improved customer
satisfaction."
Rolta is a recognized global leader in Geospatial solutions serving
hundreds of organizations around the world. For more information about
