GeoEye and Google Provide Satellite Imagery of Haiti
Added by USGIF Category: Daily Intelligence Brief
USGIF member company GeoEye announced yesterday that it has partnered with Google Earth and has made available satellite images of the aftermath of the Haiti earthquake. The devastating earthquake hit Haiti on Monday has caused untold property damaged and casualties. As we posted yesterday, GEOINT plays a critical role in natural disasters and GeoEye is certainly helping by providing the data and imagery needed to assess the situation.

And, finally, USGIF member company FortiusOne has been busy updating its public site with quake and demographic data. To learn more about FortiusOne’s efforts click here.
