an organization to crawl, catalog, describe

and securely disseminate massive volumes

of geospatial and business data

It’s All About Your “Bounding Box”

A user should be able to draw a bounding box on a map, declare a slice of time, and discover and access all the available, relevant, and authorized information within that area.

Maps, Imagery, Features, Terrain, Place

Names, Buildings, Infrastructure, Roads,

Political Boundaries, Hydrographic,

Geodetic, etc.Location References in

Structured Data

Relational Databases, Travel Itineraries,

Financial Transactions, Corporate Data,

Personnel Records, Statistical Data, etc.

Sensor Data

EO, Spectral, Radar,

LiDAR, Infrared, FMV, in

situ, GPS, etc.

Access from Any Device

Desktop, Laptop, PDA, Wireless,

Smartphone

Location References in Unstructured Data

News Reports, Publications, Manifests, Internet,

World Wide Web, Audio, Video, etc.

Group datasets

together, limit by

scale, and portray

potentially

thousands of

Create filters on data formats

Couple with FTP server to create a remote drop box

Catalog hierarchy management

Reorganize the catalog hierarchy (i.e re-

parenting of aggregates)

Drag and drop
