TransCore and Telenor Satellite Services, a subsidiary of Telenor ASA of Norway, have signed a five-year agreement for Telenor to serve as a distributor of TransCore's GlobalWave asset tracking products throughout Europe.

This multi-year agreement with Telenor further expands TransCore satellite offerings within the international market. The service uses Inmarsat satellite capacity provided by Telenor Satellite Services to TransCore.
"Over the past decade, the need to track and monitor assets has reached a crucial turning point, particularly with the evolving and stringent security measures now required due to the current international state of affairs. Companies require reliable and remote communications in numerous vertical markets such as marine, rail, container, intermodal and heavy equipment," said Anders Kallerud, executive vice president of Telenor Satellite Services. "Offering complementary technologies, Telenor and TransCore have entered into a distribution agreement that enhances both companies' services to monitor high dollar assets in a myriad of environments."
With more than 400 service providers globally, Telenor Satellite Services offers an instant infrastructure for international distribution and technical support. The combination of this established network and GlobalWave product offerings makes solutions readily available to the European community and provides a software developer's toolbox to create market-specific tracking and asset management applications.
Launched in 1999, the satellite-based GlobalWave communications system allows users to monitor, manage, track and communicate with remote and mobile assets from a web site interface. With four ground control stations providing service to five continents, the GlobalWave network supports more than 75,000 users worldwide.
