Norwegian weather information services firm StormGeo will purchase compatriot supplier of maritime charts and publications Nautisk from NHST Media Group, the owner of TradeWinds.
The merger will allow StormGeo to integrate routing and weather services with state-of-the-art chart solutions, it said.
StormGeo chief executive Per-Olof Schroeder, said the acquisition is a natural complement to its services as Nautisk “has developed state-of-the-art software for use in planning and navigation.”
