Denver, Colorado, January 27, 2010.  Ubisense, the global leader in precise Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS), is pleased to announce that Peter Batty is rejoining the organization as VP of Geospatial Technology.

 
Peter is well known as a leader within the geospatial industry. Formerly the CTO of two of the top three geospatial software companies, Intergraph and Smallworld, he was also a co-founder and CTO of Ten Sails, the company that provided early stage funding to and later merged with Ubisense.   Peter will be leading Ubisense's strategy in geospatial consulting, and driving strategic business development efforts in RTLS.

Both GIS and RTLS customers can benefit from the new generation of geospatial tools and techniques".
