ALISO VIEJO, Calif., May 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Telogis,Inc., the platform for location intelligence, has announced the availability of Telogis GeoBase 3.8, the latest release of the geospatial mapping software used by thousands of developers around the world for location-based application development.

"This release further cements our position as the leading provider of tools that can be used to add location intelligence across the enterprise quickly and easily," said Jeff Fiore, director, sales engineering and product management, Telogis.
