Public vs. Private Financing of
Remotely Sensed Imagery Data - The Need for Both
It's easy to measure return on
investment on commercially funded remotely sensed imagery; you can add
up the costs and subtract them from the gross revenue of products
sold.
When such data are publicly funded, the equation is far more complex
since the revenue value is rarely measureable in dollars paid, but
rather in time saved, animals with a safe environment, floods
prevented
and the like. Bill Gale explains why both sourcing methods, in
balance,
are likely to contribute to a sucessful remote sensing future.
DigitalGlobe is the world leader for geospatial content
and products. It is the only geospatial content company to provide an
end-to-end solution for global acquisition, access and distribution of
both aerial and satellite imagery. DigitalGlobe is committed to
maintaining the world’s highest resolution constellation of
satellites;
the most complete, accurate content library, and comprehensive,
flexible solutions for viewing and integration.

of Surveillance Societies around the world." The accompanying text
notes: "In terms of statutory protections and privacy
enforcement, the US is the worst ranking country in the democratic
world. In terms of overall privacy protection the United States has
performed very poorly, being out-ranked by both India and the
Philippines and falling into the 'black' category, denoting endemic
surveillance." Used with permission. Click image for larger view.
