Hatfield to provide GeoEye-1 satellite imagery to Canadian government department
Aug 24, 2010
On July 28, Hatfield was awarded a standing offer to become the sole provider of panchromatic GeoEye-1 satellite imagery to the Natural Resources Canada – Canadian Forest Service (CFS) National Forest Inventory (NFI) Program over the next two years.
As part of the standing offer, as many as 300 images of NFI plots across Northern Canada may be provided, which is supported by an existing official global reseller agreement for GeoEye, established between Hatfield and GeoEye Inc. in 2007. The geomatics team at Hatfield has the required experience to utilize the tools and procedures provided by GeoEye to acquire new and archived high-resolution satellite imagery to support the Government of Canada in this program of work.
The geographic location of this image is west of Great Bear Lake in the Northwest Territories. This represents a 1m panchromatic ortho-corrected image collected by the GeoEye-1 satellite on July 10, 2010. Image courtesy of GeoEye.
