MEDIA ALERT: Tableau Software Customers Able to Access Maps up to 10x Faster

Urban Mapping, the leading provider of embedded geographic technology, today announced a significant performance improvement to mapping capabilities available through Tableau Software's (NYSE: DATA) products. Effective immediately, all Tableau customers accessing map-related features will gain up to 1,000% faster access to Mapfluence, Urban Mapping's hosted web mapping platform.

Urban Mapping's new content delivery network (CDN) spans sixteen countries in four continents, translating to performance improvements of 2 to 10 times, depending on location. Tableau and Urban Mapping are making this announcement at the Tableau European Customer Conference to underscore the importance of international customers in Tableau's growth.

"By pushing maps closer to customers, we speed the delivery of content," stated Ian White, president and founder of Urban Mapping. "Proximity is everything. This means lower latency and higher sustained data transfer rates, which are needed to deliver large objects to end users at scale."

As Tableau's official mapping partner, Urban Mapping allows Tableau customers to access base maps, create custom geographic overlays and other visualizations, including demographics and high-resolution imagery, and utilize additional data from the Mapfluence on-demand data catalog, all within Tableau products.

"As a global software company committed to pushing the envelope with visualization technologies, mapping is a must have," commented James Eiloart, vice president of Europe, Middle East and Asia at Tableau. "With the CDN, Urban Mapping is not only helping deliver value-added capabilities to our customers, they have also taken the extra step to develop an innovative delivery platform to provide those capabilities as fast as possible."

Because Mapfluence maintains native access to Tableau, it offers higher performance, reliability and service offerings over legacy mapping technologies.
