Vince A. Rosales, managing director for Idea Integration and an active member of the GITA for several years, has been appointed to the 2006 GITA Board of Directors.

"The GITA Board will greatly benefit from Vince's wealth of experience in the space and his focus on technology," said Jim Albert, president of Idea Integration. "His continued involvement will also enhance Idea's already successful geographic information systems (GIS) national practice."

GITA, a nonprofit educational association serving the global geospatial community, will host its annual forum to promote the use and benefits of geospatial information and technology. The 2006 Annual Conference theme - "No Barriers: Connected. Responsive. Prepared." - reflects the fact that professionals in geospatial technology must respond to growing business needs to prepare for dynamic situations.

Representatives from Idea Integration, including Rosales, will be available in display 425 to share Idea's delivery capabilities in the area of GIS solutions development, particularly focusing on Idea's unique geospatial adapters. By combining an application set and implementation services, Idea's geospatial connectors facilitate the integration of ESRI(R) GIS tools into business systems via Microsoft's Information Worker tools to enhance user interface and analysis functions. Idea has been delivering successful GIS development services for over 13 years and has completed over 700 projects to date.
