Surveying, Mapping and GIS

Now that the news is going public, my company, Synergist Technology Group, Inc., as part of the EPA community have been enjoying GlobeXplorer imagery and web services in the applications we have been developing for EPA for some time now.

Kudos to our friends Dave Catlin and Dave Wolf of the EPA Office of Environmental Information Geoservices Team for getting an enterprise-wide agreement for Globexplorer imagery!

The more that agency stovepipes can be overcome to take advantage of these kinds of data, services and applications, the more dollars can be leveraged toward a robust service-oriented architecture, and to overcome gaps and overlaps in coverage and to provide significantly more bang for the buck.
