Geocove Exhibit at National Hurricane Conference Rates Nationwide Interview on The Weather Channel

geocove — Thu, 12 Apr 2012 17:21:57 +0000

When Geocove set up shop at the National Hurricane Conference in Orlando last month we hoped to pitch our ARM360 Damage Assessment System to the dozens of state, local and federal government agencies in attendance.

We didn’t expect national TV exposure.

But Geocove’s ARM360 system has some star power. The computerized GIS mapping and inventorying program helps emergency management agencies locate, identify and quantify damages caused by storms and natural disasters quickly and efficiently.

International online broadcaster IPR365.com was the first to spot Geocove on the exhibit floor. IPR365 requested an interview with Karyn Tareen, Geocove’s president and chief executive officer. To see her videotaped interview visit IRR365.com.

Then came an extended interview on the Weather Channel with host Jim Cantore and national brand exposure. To view that interview, visit The Weather Channel.

“We were thrilled to be selected as one of four vendors to be featured on The Weather Channel’s feature of cool hurricane gadgets and technology.” Tareen said. “Mr. Cantore was pleased to see our assessment maps of the 2011 Tuscaloosa Tornado, and how this information can be used by a community for better decisions.” she said.

Key presentations included one on the Evolution of Mobile Mapping for First Responders by Tom Patterson of Esri; another on ArcGIS for Emergency Management by Ryan Lanclos, Emergency Management Industry Manager for ESRI, and Geocove Implements ArcGIS for Emergency Management by Steve Grise.

Tareen said Geocove used the opportunity to showcase its newest version of ARM360, its flagship damage assessment application, and announce its newest product GeoEvac, which helps resident’s access information about evacuation zones and facilities.

Tareen said Geocove will host follow-up webinars for specialists who were unable to attend the user group conference.

“We are excited about our users’ enthusiasm and support of our products and company,” Tareen said. “We couldn’t ask for a better group of individuals and communities to work with and will continue to work with our customers to make our product line meet and hopefully exceed their expectations and needs,” she said.
