| The relationship between Leica Geosystems in Portugal and IGP has been based for many years on trust, quality and a high level of service and support. Consequently, IGP has decided to use Leica SPIDER software to manage the Portuguese National GPS Permanent Station Network (ReNEP), which currently has 8 GPS stations  |

| Overall, using GIS and GPS has had a phenomenal impact on GRTC Transit. The organization has realized internal cost-savings by eliminating some of the services it previously contracted out that are now accomplished through the use of GIS and GPS technologies. The next step for GRTC is to put the mapping information onto its website.  |

| Reporter 49, Dec 2003) A massive 42% in productivity gains has been measured by Great Britain’s national mapping agency, Ordnance Survey, following the implementation of Leica GPS surveying systems to undertake their most detailed mapping. GPS was introduced to the field from January 2002 and allowed all Ordnance Survey surveyors to update map data on the spot.  |
