More and more electronic geodata is available for consumer use on the Internet, on phones, on navigation systems and elsewhere. Much of it is free and even datasets that are for fee are easy to access and update. Can the same be said for geodata for GIS professionals? This week we explore if the increased demand in the conusmer space has changed how geographic data is delivered and sold to professionals.

Reader Randy sent a tip noting that Stewart, the company that sold off GlobeXplorer in January released some financials including this tidbit about income related to the sale.
Includes a $3.2 million gain ($2.1 million after taxes, or $0.11
per diluted share) from the sale of two subsidiaries, GlobeXplorer(R)
and AirPhotoUSA(R), in the first quarter of 2007. Also includes a
charge to earnings of $5.1 million ($3.3 million after taxes, or
$0.18 per diluted share) for title loss provisions relating to
four large title losses.

As we’ve been involved with or heard of GIS implementations around the world there’s a recurring rejoinder: “It’s not the technology preventing its implementation, but the people” which is short for politics, power and related issues. Now that geospatial technology is maturing and moving to the mainstream that same theme is popping up. And this week, we had some great examples, including the world’s (and the U.S. government’s) reaction to Google’s changes to its Katrina area imagery.
The podcast is 15 minutes long and was recorded on April 2, 2007.
