Autodesk launches Topobase in UK with Appointment of 1Spatial

Autodesk has announced that 1Spatial will be the first UK value-added reseller of Autodesk Topobase software. The infrastructure design and management solution has already been installed at around 500 sites worldwide and, because of its proven success and impressive ROI, interest from the UK utility sector is expected to be strong.

Built on AutoCAD Map3D, Autodesk MapGuide, and sitting on an Oracle Spatial database, Topobase software integrates infrastructure design and management, providing easy access to accurate design, GIS, and asset information across an entire organisation. This addresses the current need for utilities to centralise and integrate data, providing a totally updated and reliable single source of information. This leads to more efficient reporting, better-informed decision-making, faster response times and improved customer service.

Tracey Stone, sales manager Autodesk Infrastructure Modelling, Northern Europe says she believes 1Spatial can add even further value to Topobase, because of its extensive expertise in the geospatial sector, in particular working with its existing customers in the utilities sector. "1Spatial already has years of experience in integrating CAD and GIS and working with AutoCAD Map 3D and MapGuide, helping customers reduce costs and increase efficiencies."
