Two Geospatial Visionaries to Lead Social Data Mining Company

The company is called smartRealmTM; it describes itself as providing tech that “extracts critical targeted information from social media and web content, fuses it with enterprise data, and delivers real-time tailored insights that enable organizations to make informed decisions and take effective actions.” Today it announced that Barry Glick, co-founder and development lead for MapQuest (back in the day) has been appointed CEO.

The underlying tech comes from Image Matters LLC, via a corporate spin-out. Dr. Yaser Bishr, who I know from his work with OGC on geospatial-semantic technologies, left his position as CTO at Image Matters (itself a geo brain trust) to serve as smartRelam’s Executive VP.
