Spot Image has been building and operating satellites since 1986. The
company can point to a large archive of 20 million satellite images
covering the planet and several operating satellites currently together
with partnerships adding imagery from KOMPSAT, FORMOSAT and ENVISAT.
Recently the company's shareholder structure changed as EADS Astrium
assumed majority ownership. This has resulted in a larger company under
that name with Spot Image joining Infoterra to form a earth observation
working group. These changes have compelled the group to offer advanced
web services for its products and services in addition to other
changes. Vector1 Media editor Jeff Thurston reports in the first part
of the conference coverage.
In Part II of 'Beneath the Surfaces: The Hidden Elegance in Parametric Design' architect
Don Chong continues to discuss the fuss over 'parametric design' and
'computational
design', based on his observations at the Bentley SmartGeometry
conference in San Francisco recently. His attention turns to design
data and the development of design tools in real-time.
The ability to track change over time within a geospatial context has
long been a compelling challenge. The primary limitation is the amount
of data that needs to be captured, analyzed and visualized. V1 Editor
Matt Ball spoke with Mark L. Feldman, CEO and president of Space-Time
Insight about the successful approach that his company has developed,
and the many interesting problems that can be solved with this level of
insight.
