DigitalGlobe (NYSE: DGI), a leading global provider of
high-resolution earth imagery solutions, today announced that NTT
GEOSPACE (NTT KUUKAN JYOUHOU CORPORATION) has launched a new online
geospatial intelligence service powered by DigitalGlobe. The
service, named GEOSPACE CDS, features on-demand access to imagery
sourced from DigitalGlobe's suite of content services, including
DigitalGlobe Global Basemap™ and DigitalGlobe FirstLook™.
"On-demand access to the DigitalGlobe service suite allows us to
offer our end-users a significantly higher level of content and
service quality," said Mr. Takashi Inose, CEO of NTT GEOSPACE
Corporation. "Many of our customers require maximum accuracy and
resolution, but most importantly the imagery must be current, and
it must be delivered as quickly as possible. DigitalGlobe's
capabilities are unmatched in these areas, enabling us to provide
our users more up-to-date imagery, faster."
Using the web-based GEOSPACE CDS interface, users quickly find
and begin using the images they need from the complete DigitalGlobe
imagery archive of the region, which is the largest and most
frequently refreshed library available today. The archive includes
more than 80 million photo tiles, covering the majority of the
Japanese landmass.
New images of the region are being consistently captured by
DigitalGlobe satellites and added to the library, so users can be
confident they are finding and accessing the most up-to-date
imagery available.
"NTT GEOSPACE has created a comprehensive solution addressing
the full spectrum of users' imagery needs," said Takayuki Odawara,
head of DigitalGlobe's North Asia commercial operations. "From land
resource management, to communications network planning, to
emergency planning and response, GEOSPACE CDS powered by
DigitalGlobe gives users the content they need to quickly make the
best decisions and take the most effective action."
NTT GEOSPACE, a recently launched affiliate company of Nippon
Telegraph and Telephone (NYSE: NTT), operates in partnership with
Hitachi Solutions in the region. The two companies recently signed
an agreement establishing NTT GEOSPACE as an authorized provider of
DigitalGlobe imagery.
"Hitachi Solutions is honored to develop this best-in-class
service with DigitalGlobe and provide it to NTT GEOSPACE. We
believe this is the beginning of continued mutual development among
our three companies, working jointly to create innovative Location
Intelligence services for customers," said Masakazu Kuji, executive
officer of Hitachi Solutions.
"The NTT partnership with Hitachi Solutions ultimately expands
and strengthens our own long and successful reseller relationship
with Hitachi," added Odawara. "We look forward to many years of
success in combining our efforts and capabilities. Together we can
deliver higher value to our customers and end-users throughout the
region."
