CARIS and Kongsberg Maritime Sign Memorandum of Understanding
CARIS and Kongsberg Maritime, Norway, today announced that they have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to collaborate and deliver CARIS HIPS/SIPS multi-beam processing software to existing and potential Kongsberg clients.
CARIS HIPS/SIPS represents a single off-the-shelf software product that embodies all of the very latest statistical-based data cleaning and processing methodologies currently reshaping the ocean mapping industry in one single package.
The addition of HIPS/SIPS to Kongsberg’s existing multi-beam processing products allows them to appeal to a greater diversity and variety of end-user needs, thus strengthening their market position.
As part of this agreement, CARIS will provide ongoing marketing, sales and training support for the HIPS/SIPS software to Kongsberg engineers and sales specialists. Further, the two parties have committed to working cooperatively on an ongoing basis, to offer migration from Neptune users to HIPS/SIPS and that the technical needs of Kongsberg clients are being met in future planning of the HIPS/SIPS software.
