PlanGraphics Enters into Agreements with
Chinese Spatial Information Services Firm
FRANKFORT, Ky.-Spatial information technology integrator PlanGraphics, Inc., announces that
it has entered into a formal business partnership agreement and strategic relationship with the
Sichuan Jinkecheng Geospatial Information Technologies Company of Chengdu, China. Sichuan
Jinkecheng is one of a handful of professional spatial information services firms in China.
The business partnership provides for joint business development in China and the utilization of
China-sourced professional service resources in PlanGraphics projects worldwide.
Minna Li, PlanGraphics executive consultant and project manager for several China-based
integration and advisory assignments, noted the importance of the Sichuan Jinkecheng
relationship: “There is a tremendous opportunity for spatial information services in China, and the
mix of our proprietary methodologies and the resources and talents of Sichuan Jinkecheng will
position both firms for many national, provincial, and World Bank-funded projects in China. Their
Western China location is equally important because of the attention the national government is
placing on resource development and environmental controls, as well as infrastructure
requirements in this relatively undeveloped area.”
John Antenucci, PlanGraphics President and CEO, added: “With billings of approximately $1 million
in the past several years and the relationships we have formed by performing successfully, we see
tremendous opportunity in China. We’ve laid a good foundation, and are pleased to add Sichuan
Jinkecheng to a small list of exceptional Chinese business partners.”
PlanGraphics, Inc., is a systems integration and implementation company that provides a broad
range of services in the design and implementation of spatial information technology-geographic
information systems (GIS), automated mapping/facilities management (AM/FM) systems, land
information systems (LIS), and related information technology (IT) applications. PlanGraphics’

Island, New York, New Jersey, and Arizona.
