Johnston McLamb wins Oracle Spatial Excellence Partnership Award (March 13, 2008)
In March, Johnston McLamb received the Oracle Spatial Excellence Partnership Award at the 2008 GITA Conference in Seattle, Washington. Oracle gives this award to the organization that has done the most to support and develop the Oracle Spatial users’ community over the last year.
Xavier Lopez, Oracle’s Director of Spatial & Semantic Technologies, said this: “Johnston McLamb has been instrumental in promoting the development of the Oracle Spatial and Map Viewer technologies within commercial businesses in North America. In only the last couple of years, Johnston McLamb has become a leading force in North America for creating new and innovative solutions based on Oracle’s geospatial and business intelligence technologies. They have exemplified the mutual benefits of close partnering – and that is generating successful business through innovative and high value solutions. Moreover, Johnston McLamb has been a strong proponent of the growing trend of location-enabling mainstream business solutions using Oracle technologies. It gives me great pleasure to present the Oracle Partnership Award to Steven Pierce of Johnston McLamb.”
The GITA (Geospatial Information & Technology Association) conference is oriented toward users, solutions providers, and systems integrators who depend upon Oracle’s spatial technologies. Also at the conference, Steven Pierce and Bob Murray from R.L. Polk & Co. gave a joint presentation on the Interactive Business Intelligence With Visualization (IBIV) solution that JMCS developed for RL Polk.
