Markham, ON – November 9, 2009 – Rolta Canada Limited announced that it has been selected as a finalist in the Data Management Solution of the Year category for the 2009 Microsoft Partner Network IMPACT Awards. The seventh annual IMPACT Awards recognize excellence within the Microsoft technology partner community in Canada as well as the innovative solutions and value they deliver to customers.

“Partners are the heart of Microsoft’s business and we’ve always relied upon their commitment to innovation and customer service to provide the foundation for delivering solutions to the marketplace.” said Corinne Sharp, National Director, Canadian Partner channel, Microsoft Canada Co. “We are happy to celebrate the accomplishments of industry leaders like Rolta Canada Limited at the Microsoft Partner Network IMPACT Awards.”

Rolta Canada Limited was chosen as a finalist in Data Management Solution of the Year for their award winning solution Rolta OnPoint™. OnPoint’s advanced spatial integration capabilities are an integral part of ROLTA’s Geospatial Fusion™ solution which specializes in the convergence of spatial data, imagery, business data, network topologies, asset data, operational status and event data. As these typically isolated information sources are fused, new relationships emerge, new patterns and trends are visible and new levels of operational insights become possible. Benefits are immediately realized as organizations use Geospatial Fusion to focus on enterprise-level decisions through the integration of disparate data leading to decisions that have greater impact for Business and Government organizations. The power of GeoSpatial Fusion can be used to solve problems in the Utilities, Infrastructure, Government, Telecom, Agriculture and Process industries.

We are pleased to provide solutions based on the Microsoft technology and appreciate the recognition we have received by being selected as a finalist for Data Management Solutions.”
