National Geospatial Intelligence Agency licenses Map2PDF

TerraGo Technologies announced that the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency has licensed Map2PDF, the software used to create GeoPDF files. GeoPDF is a geospatial data distribution and collaboration format that leverages the Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) to give users powerful mapping functionality and capabilities via Reader. Utilizing the GeoPDF format, the NGA can extend maps, imagery and attribute data to virtually any computer, making extensive geospatial intelligence available in a portable format that most people already know how to use.

“This is a very important initiative for TerraGo Technologies as it showcases our ability to provide actionable geospatial data and collaboration capabilities in a portable package that can be used anywhere by just about anyone,” says James Davis, TerraGo Technologies CEO. “The GeoPDF format will be a part of a solution to help make our war fighters and other mission-critical users more efficient and more knowledgeable of the activities within their area of responsibility and help increase geospatial content usage at the edge.”
