"As users become more sophisticated, we are seeing a rise in the global demand for new extended navigation-related applications," states Tsvika Friedman, CEO of Columbus Geographic Systems. "We are intensively working an entirely new range of extensions and application versions to meet this growing demand. Among the topics that our development team is currently addressing are customized language interfaces, and customization of applications to specific client needs."
Columbus' new modifications include the incorporation of additional information such as dynamic topographic cross-sections, rapid and efficient integration of maps from several different sources, and calculation and alignment of coordinates on different grids. Columbus is also making progress in negotiations with cartographers worldwide with the aim of offering its own clients that largest range of maps available today.
