  • Rating12345

PR – Penobscot Bay Media LLC (PenBay), a GIS solutions company, has collaborated with Skygone Inc., a GIS hosting and managed services firm, to help bring PenBay’s In-Vision Portal (IVP) to market.  PenBay will deliver In-Vision Portal on Skygone’s Infrastructure On-Demand (IOD) framework, a flexible and cost-effective preconfigured hardware environment for robust GIS web applications.

PenBay’s In-Vision Portal is a web-based graphical user interface that provides visualization of building foot print data and in-building attributes with the capability to upload, report, query and authenticate that information.  The data collection is done by an innovative spatial robotic collection technology.  Skygone’s IOD framework provides In-Vision Portal the flexibility, scalability, high performance and increased speed to market that it needs to succeed. 

Dana Richmond, PenBay’s Director of Software Engineering, is enthusiastic about the relationship with Skygone. “Skygone has a deep understanding of GIS that they bring to their offerings.  With the IOD framework, the computing environment is optimized for high performance of GIS applications.  Skygone has a team that offers customers innovative technology and a value-added consulting service, along with a creative and forward looking pricing strategy.”

By empowering PenBay to make real-time infrastructure decisions, Skygone’s solution will shorten their infrastructure planning cycle, lower their upfront capital expenditures, and increase their ability to scale In-Vision Portal application deployments.

The two companies not only share a passion for GIS, but they also believe in doing business with those involved in creating a positive change in the world.  “We are excited to partner with PenBay to help bring IVP to market.  PenBay has a rich history of innovation and is widely known as the in-building GIS market leader,” states Ryan Hughes, President of Skygone. “They use GIS to help organizations understand their in-building assets and provide better, safer, and healthier in-building working conditions; and in this day and age, nothing is more important.”
