Nordeca (formerly Ugland IT Group), headquartered in Lysaker, near Oslo, Norway, is one of the leading geographic information services companies in the Nordic area.
The company is one of the largest providers of geographical data in Norway. Its products include the geographic information service portfolio Insight. It is a market leader in the area of leisure maps for hiking and boating, publishing the Turkartserien and Norge-serien[1] topographic maps, the Båtsportserien and Vannsportserien nautical charts, and distributes the digital products, maps and land ownership information of the Norwegian Mapping and Cadastre Authority,[2] and also products of the Swedish Mapping Authority.
Nordeca has approximately 30 employees; in 2010 the company closed a subsidiary office in Ringerike that had once employed approximately 40 people, because map-making had become less labor-intensive with increasing computerization.[3] The company has also discontinued some digital maps once produced by the Norwegian Mapping Authority as insufficiently profitable.[4]
