Yotta expands with Mayrise acquisition

British software house Mayrise, which produces street service management programs for local authorities has been taken over by Yotta, well known for its highways surveying and consultancy services and associated software for highways condition management. Yotta has also developed the Horizons asset management system. Though the two will continue to operate separately for some time, there is an obvious synergy in the software and cross development possibilities. Mayrise has already been working with Yott

    Greater precision is helping blur the boundaries between GIS technology and design software While GIS map based technology has extended its range across an ever more universal spectrum of uses in the highways sector, it is increasingly showing weaknesses for engineering purposes. It is very often not accurate enough. This has not mattered previously because the GIS tool has been seen essentially as an automated version of paper based systems from the design department's point of view. Where engineers
