The Pitney Bowes Geospatial API that provides accurate geocoding and reverse geocoding for data analytics is now available through Amazon's AWS Marketplace.
Hot on the heels of Amazon's announcement that software vendors are able to sell SaaS and API subscriptions through AWS Marketplace, Pitney Bowes has made its Geospatial API available that way.
Uses of the Geospatial API include creating address lists from latitude and longitudinal coordinates and identifying latitude and longitudinal coordinates from an address or list of addresses.
"AWS is foundational to the Pitney Bowes Commerce Cloud, and we are delighted that Pitney Bowes is one of the first companies to support the new SaaS Subscription functionality on AWS Marketplace," said Pitney Bowes chief innovation officer Roger Pilc.

"The Pitney Bowes Geospatial API delivers the high level of accuracy required for developers and clients to create the location-enhanced solutions that drive commerce today," said AWS vice-president of marketplace and catalog services David McCann.
"Our AWS customers want to be able to find and immediately start using solutions like the Pitney Bowes Geospatial API to speed their innovation around data analytics, and our new SAAS Subscriptions API on AWS Marketplace enables businesses to deploy Pitney Bowes solutions more easily than ever, and pay for their services on a unified AWS bill."
