DigitalGlobe’s Jill Smith on Cloud Computing
The second key enabler [to removing barriers to imagery use] is the availability of cloud computing to distribute our products. With the geospatial cloud we can offer a platform with high performance computing and bring down cost. Our customers can therefore access imagery through various formats, immediately. We can also offer additional services such as change detection or feature identification that leverage this geospatial cloud.
PS. Steve Milton, DigitalGlobe will one of the speakers in our two part Cloud Computing session at the Location Intelligence Conference in two weeks.
