Oracle, DigitalGlobe To Offer Imagery Service
Update: (Adena here) For those who note a PR on this topic from 2007, Joe assured me it's something different. I sent him that very link!
---
After the IPO this morning of DigitalGlobe (DGI), news was available that the company will offer an imagery service with the next release of Oracle Spatial similar to the service that Oracle has with NAVTEQ. Users will be able to injest imagery data into Oracle Spatial and a 60-day trial license made available to try data. More details later.
Should DigitalGlobe IPO Change thinking on GeoEye?
Somes say yes. Rich Smith of Motley Fool compares the two companies and says "no." Nice tables compare 2008 and 2009 revenues.
The IPO launched today at $19 above initial expected range of $16-$18 and raised $279.3m, more than expected. The stock begins trading today.
