"Navteq is proud to expand our relationship with the NGA on such a crucial program that serves the global map data needs of the U.S. Federal Government Defense and Intelligence Community," said Roy Kolstad, vice president, Enterprise Americas, Navteq. "This contract award offers another validation point for the best-in-class nature of the Navteq product portfolio in serving our government customers.
