Dear Colleagues-
I received this email yesterday and as I was not aware of this program, I felt it might be of interest to others on the list server. I have not other information other than what is shown below. Regards/Ken ====================================================== Hello, My name is Rose Ganley, I work for the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), formerly the National Imagery & Mapping Agency (NIMA) and part of the United States Government. My department, Geomatics, runs an informal data exchange with a number of universities, energy companies, and independent scientists around the world. We are interested in collecting gravity surveys, both over land and water, in support of products such as the World Geodetic System (WGS 84), Earth Gravity Model (EGM08), and other DoD requirements that many different groups within the international scientific community use on a daily basis. In exchange we provide our gravity model free-of-charge as well as a wide array of geospatial data upon request. In the past some geophysical firms in the US have given us what they called "patriotic contributions" in support of our main customer, the US military. If your company felt so inclined, please know that we would keep your contributions out of the hands of any third parties and internal to NGA only. If you're wondering what parts of the world we are most interested in, anything that is in the news as well as mountainous areas are generally high-priority areas for us, as well as developing areas such as many African countries. We also do have a gravity meter loan program, which I can send you more information about if you are interested. Finally, we can sometimes trade data in exchanges that are mutually beneficial - this includes RBS stations around the US and globally. I appreciate your consideration and look forward to hearing from you. Rose Ganley [email protected] Data Acquisitions Office of Geomatics National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency
