Blue Marble Geographics and Avenza Systems, Inc. have merged to operate under a single unified brand known as Blue Marble Geographics.
The consolidation of these two entities brings together a suite of complementary technologies designed to bridge the gap between office-based spatial analysis and field execution. The integrated portfolio includes Global Mapper and Geographic Calculator from Blue Marble Geographics, alongside Avenza Maps from Avenza Systems. This combined platform supports a comprehensive workflow involving LiDAR and photogrammetric point cloud processing, high-precision coordinate transformations, and mobile data distribution.
To oversee the integration of these technologies, Blue Marble Geographics has appointed Patrick Stevenson as Chief Product Officer. Stevenson joins the company with nearly twenty years of experience in engineering innovation and product development, having previously held roles at Trimble and Intermap within the AEC and surveying markets. He is tasked with leading a product strategy that treats spatial analysis, coordinate intelligence, and mobile field capabilities as a single connected system.
Stevenson, Chief Product Officer of Blue Marble Geographics, commented, “By uniting the capabilities of Blue Marble Geographics and Avenza Systems, we are now able to accelerate how geospatial workflows connect from the office to the field, helping bridge the digital and physical worlds where geospatial data is created, analyzed, and put into action. Our focus is on enabling these workflows to function as a connected system, making it easier for customers to operate more efficiently and effectively across any environment.”
The company serves a diverse global user base in sectors such as energy, natural resources, defense, and the public sector. These industries often require high-performance tools to manage complex environments where precision is a requirement.
Jeremy Parker, CEO of Blue Marble Geographics, added, “The combination of these two companies represents an important step forward for us and for our customers. We are bringing together technologies that have each delivered strong value independently, and are making investments to unify the products, accelerate innovation, and better support our customers’ operations across complex, real world environments.”
The unified company remains backed by Eterna Growth Partners, a firm that focuses on the scaling of innovative technology organizations.
