European Space Imaging, a leading supplier of high-resolution
satellite imagery to customers in Europe and North Africa, and
DigitalGlobe (NYSE: DGI), a leading global content provider of
high-resolution world imagery solutions, announced the successful
completion of its co-hosted WorldView Global Alliance Partner
conference with DigitalGlobe. The event attracted more than 80
senior executives, representing 37 companies and 24 countries
attending the two-day event in Germany. Held at the Hotel
Bayerischer Hof in Munich during the 20-21st January, the
conference featured details about WorldView-2, the DigitalGlobe
constellation, tasking options, Web Services and a wide range of
exciting new products and services the Alliance will be supporting.
The conference also included informative presentations by industry
thought-leaders from DLR and the European Space Agency (ESA).
In addition to the service sessions, EUSI customers learned more
about WorldView-2's 8 multi-spectral band applications, large area
collection capability, customer support services and an update on
the status on the Direct Access Facility in Munich.
Highlights from the Conference:
"The conference was excellent and very well organized. The
vision of the Alliance showed us that they will be flexible and
reliable which will help us meet our client expectations for VHR
imagery," said Sheena White, Infoterra, United Kingdom.
"Having a tour of the Direct Access Facility was great -- 8 band
multispectral and WorldView-2's huge capacity to collect enables us
to offer new and unique solutions and this makes the Alliance
really different," said Mikael Kamp Sorensen, Director of GRAS,
Denmark.
"The timing of this Conference could not have been any better,
following closely on the achievement of full operational capability
on the 4th January. Reaching full operational capability within
three months following launch is a testament to the investment made
by DigitalGlobe to provide the best available coverage, refresh and
innovation through its advanced high resolution constellation,"
said Adrian Zevenbergen, Managing Director of EUSI. "We can now
offer our customers access to all of DigitalGlobe's solutions and
when this is combined with our Direct Access Facility, expected to
be operational in late March or early April, we expect to extend
the value offered to our customers with additional unique products
and services only available through the WorldView Global
Alliance."
"Channel partners provide more than just value added services,
they represent an extension of our business and portfolio of
services to the marketplace," said Rafay Khan, SVP International
Sales DigitalGlobe. "Our partners experience excellent service from
the Alliance where they can leverage our constellation, world's
largest ImageLibrary, priority tasking and rapid production and
delivery through a local partner."
