Under the terms of the agreement, Sightvision will utilize Pictometry’s proprietary image capture and processing technology and market image libraries and software in Israel. Other terms of the agreement were not disclosed.

“We are truly excited to offer Pictometry technologies to businesses and organizations in Israel,” said Sightvision’s active Chairman of the Board, Eyal Arbel, who added, “the Israeli market is eager to move to the next level in the field of mapping and GIS technology. By combining Israeli experience in these areas with Pictometry’s unique and powerful technology, we can create advanced solutions for the Israeli market and the world.”
