MENDON, Mass. (PRWEB) -- Sept. 23, 2004 -- Geographic Software Launches a New Bookstore and Software Portal For Geographic Information Systems and Mapping Professionals.

Geographic Software is a Geographic Systems Applications consulting firm.

Officially launched on September 19th, 2004, the portal aggregates, and offers for sale the latest literature, books, mapping software, atlases, maps, and other geography related products to create a unique online shopping experience.

The portal was developed initially as a solution to a problem: Geographic Software needed to find books related to their Geographic consulting business. We took a hard look at the offerings on the Internet," said Sean Luck -- President of Geographic Software, and we found that there wasnt a single place where books, publications, equipment, and accessories related to Geography and geographic information systems could be located. So, we created this portal as a set of available resources at first for our own use, then realized it could have wider potential if it was made available to an wider audience."

The portal can be visited by clicking on the Store" link at http://www.GeographicSoftware.com

We are excited to add this comprehensive resource to the GIS and Mapping community. Our company is dedicated to providing unique geographic systems solutions and we regard our ties with the developers and consumers of geographic mapping as critical to our success," said Luck, This is our way of giving something back to those we count on as partners in our mutual success. We hope site visitors will enjoy our new online geography store, and will come back often as new titles will be arriving daily."
