Blue Marble Adds Chinese Reseller to its Worldwide Network of Partners

Focusing on the rapidly emerging geospatial sector in mainland China, Beijing E-Carto Technologies will be tasked with promoting, distributing, and supporting Global Mapper and the accompanying LiDAR Module.

For over two decades, Blue Marble's affordable, user-friendly GIS software has been meeting the needs of hundreds of thousands of satisfied customers throughout the world. Users come from all industries including software, oil and gas, mining, civil engineering, surveying, and technology companies, as well as government departments and academic institutions.

Coinciding with the rapid acceleration in the worldwide popularity of Global Mapper, Blue Marble has developed a wide-reaching network of dedicated partners and resellers. Each of these partner companies has been selected because of their genuine enthusiasm for Global Mapper and their commitment to spreading the word about its capabilities. Besides simply selling the software, most resellers are actively involved in the GIS community in their region and offer Global Mapper training and other professional services to their customers and clients.

The addition of Beijing E-Carto Technologies to the reseller list provides an invaluable asset to Blue Marble. Not only will the company be able to effectively introduce Global Mapper to Chinese government agencies and commercial companies, a task which has been logistically difficult for Blue Marble's account managers, but it will also provide a local presence for addressing the illegitimate distribution and licensing of the software in the region.

Headquartered in the capital, Beijing E-Carto Technologies has a situational advantage when it comes to engaging with the various branches of the national government. Company owner, Chunhua Chen, brings 11 years of experience in the geospatial field and has eagerly embraced the opportunity to work on behalf of Blue Marble and to promote Global Mapper in his homeland.

"It is a great honor for us to become an official reseller of Blue Marble Geographics in China," stated Mr. Chen. "We are looking forward to enabling Chinese customers to use the company's latest technology, including Global Mapper and the Global Mapper LiDAR Module, by providing legitimate licenses with professional technical support."
