The company is based in the US state of Connecticut and helps its clients track and visualise traffic volumes, identify geographic concentrations of high-volume incidents, evaluate potential asset improvements and pinpoint under- or over-use of assets.

Mike Maiolo, CEO of Rizing, says: “We see applications for this location intelligence across our lines of business, which is why we felt it crucial to embrace the Rizing brand for geospatial services.”

“Transcend has been instrumental in solving location data challenges in the transportation industry for over nine years,” said Connie Gurchiek, Rizing’s president of geospatial and founder of Transcend.

“That is not changing. What is changing is our ability to present our solutions to both the transportation industry and Sap customers with a fresh market perspective.”
