SEATTLE, WA, February 20, 2008 - Adapx (www.adapx.com), the company that is changing the economics of field data management, and ESRI, the world leader in the geographic information system (GIS) software industry, today announced a strategic agreement to deliver Capturx for ArcGIS Desktop to all of ESRI’s markets such as government, utilities, engineering, natural resources, and various other industries.
The Capturx for ArcGIS Desktop software platform – Only Capturx offers a software platform that interprets information back and forth from the field to computer. After paper maps have been marked up, the software platform translates the digital ink captured in Penx as geodatabase features available in ArcGIS Desktop.
The Penx digital pen – Penx, the field-ready digital pen, writes on paper with regular ink and simultaneously records pen strokes as digital ink. The durable construction is designed to go in even the harshest climates and conditions and ranks higher in convenience by users than rugged PCs and tablets. Penx is designed for the way people work, with virtually no training required.
Digital paper – Any standard paper up to A2 (16.5 x 23.4) can be used to print the ArcMap-designed map. Most color, high-resolution and PostScript Level 2 printers can imprint the special digital pen-enabling pattern of dots recognized by Penx.
“Serving over 30 industries, ESRI represents a significant new channel for Adapx. We’re happy to offer their customers a more cost effective, plug-and-play field management solution,” said Ken Schneider, president and CEO at Adapx. “ESRI’s vision and experience in the GIS software industry combined with our innovative technology and commitment to customer service represents a win-win for both companies as well as our customers.”
