New Zoomthere Service for Advanced Mobile Property Maps Display and Mobile Web Applications.


Vancouver, BC - June 8th, 2010 - Aftercad is pleased to announce the closed beta launch of its new mobile maps and webapps service Zoomthere to deliver advanced 3D property map visualization capabilities to mobile devices.

"The Zoomthere mobile technology has been in development now for a while and with the exponential rise in mobile content consumption and the meteoric explosion of location based mobile applications, the timing is terrific for our clients" said Chris Boothroyd, CEO of Aftercad. "Zoomthere adds value to mobile maps by allowing the realtime display of advanced visual property and community directory information right there in your hand. By enabling anyone with property or area based assets to display everything directly in Google Maps for the mobile browser, now we can 'fill in the details between the streets'. Using our advanced patent pending display technologies, we can show all of the floors of a mall right there in your mobile browser and allow you to navigate through them in real time with the touch of your finger or even a thumb - no app install required."

Aftercad has recently expanded its 3D web publishing efforts to include the new Zoomthere Mobile SaaS offering to get more detailed information of the physical environment into peoples hands via their mobile devices. The new Zoomthere service takes advantage of newer more powerful webkit based mobile browsers to deliver the property map data directly to the mobile user without having to install anything first. The Zoomthere Beta is being rolled out initially to a select number of commercial, residential and retail property managers and marketers.

"We've all been trained that to get any sort of meaningful use out of our mobile devices that we have to go install an app from a platform vetted list of developers. This runs completely counter to the open software-in-the-browser revolution we are seeing on the desktop. With iPhone Safari and other webkit based mobile browsers, that is simply no longer true and most of the app functionality can be delivered simply with a link. To wit, there are over 4500 webapps listed on the Apple website no-one even really knows about." said Boothroyd. "This means that companies looking to publish rich visual information can write once and deploy to any modern mobile device via the web which is much, much more cost effective and removes all barriers to access. Point your iPhone, Android, Blackberry or Nokia device at www.zoomthere.com and see for yourself."
