Tele Atlas Selected by 1Spatial to Help Enable Integration and Quality Services

London, May 1, 2008 - Tele Atlas (FSE: TA6, EUNV: TA), a leading global provider of digital maps and dynamic content for navigation and location-based solutions, today announced a Value Added Reseller (VAR) agreement with 1Spatial for Tele Atlas MultiNetTM digital map database platform. This agreement will help enable 1Spatial to offer powerful integration and quality services, which include MultiNet digital map data, to a broad range of organizations ranging from large corporate enterprises and system integrators to local and central governments.

1Spatial has extensive experience in providing operational solutions to organizations with large geospatial databases, notably around geospatial data integration and quality control. Through the agreement, 1Spatial now will be able to offer end-users a suite of GPS and geospatial solutions based on Tele Atlas' MultiNet helping them to more rapidly benefit from their location-based applications.

Of note, Tele Atlas and 1Spatial previously have worked together to re-engineer the existing workflow for a global telecommunications company to replace the data from its incumbent digital mapping provider with the latest MultiNet database from Tele Atlas. For telecommunications companies, available bandwidth, pricing, quality of service and, therefore, customer satisfaction increasingly rely on location intelligence.

"We are now better positioned to consistently market to large corporate and government communities across Europe, Middle East and Africa," said Jack Reinelt, COO & Managing Director of Tele Atlas Europe, Middle East and Africa. "We have been working with 1Spatial for several years in the areas of data quality and data control; this agreement further strengthens this partnership and will enable more organizations to integrate solutions based on MultiNet into their location-based applications."

"We believe Tele Atlas' MultiNet has become a de-facto standard in digital mapping and as such, is the most accurate and intuitive digital map that is currently available," said Steven Ramage, 1Spatial's Director of Business Development. "Utility companies, public sector organisations, retail, insurance and finance organisations, amongst a host of others, can now more rapidly create the location intelligent enterprise and begin to reap the rewards. We can help them with their geospatial data integration and quality requirements."
