Decatur, AL, USA – 3-GIS, an Alabama based software development and services company, has announced the release of Buzz, a mobile viewing solution designed specifically for BlackBerry smartphones.
In 2008, 3-GIS joined the BlackBerry Independent Software Vendor (ISV) Alliance Program with the goal of designing a solution that would give BlackBerry smartphone users access to the GIS. With the introduction of the Buzz application for BlackBerry smartphones, 3-GIS has accomplished this goal, giving users across the enterprise the ability to view and query GIS data with their BlackBerry smartphone.
Developed to utilise the ESRI ArcGIS Server technology, Buzz is targeted to the utility, telecommunications and emergency management industries; but can be extended to other markets with a geodatabase. Currently, Buzz can run on the BlackBerry Pearl series, BlackBerry Bold and BlackBerry Curve series smartphones utilising the AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon Wireless cellular networks.
