omNovia Technologies today announced the integration of Yahoo Maps into its advanced web conferencing platform. The omNovia World Map feature allows presenters and moderators to show their attendees a map containing the location of each participant. Moreover presenters may co-navigate the map by zooming, panning and changing to satellite view while conference attendees’ maps are updated in real-time.

“The World Map feature adds one more dimension to the omNovia Web Conferencing platform” said Shawn Shadfar, Founder and CEO of omNovia Technologies continuing “We are in the business of bringing businesses closer to their partners and customers by removing the notion of distance. The World Map feature makes you realize how people far away from each-other can work closely on their computers”. The real-time map co-navigation feature may also be used for diverse applications such as meteorology, aviation and other military functions.
