The Geospatial Revolution Project

A public service media project produced by Penn State Public Broadcasting

In 2009, Penn State Public Broadcasting, licensee of Penn State University, began to educate and engage the public and policy-makers about geospatial developments and applications with their Geospatial Revolution Project, "an integrated public media and outreach initiative about the world of digital mapping and how it is changing the way we think, behave, and interact."

This short video offers an excellent overview of how geospatial imaging and GIS technologies work together in life- and world-changing ways. One of the featured speakers in this film is GeoEye’s Vice President of Communications, Mark Brender. GeoEye is proud to be a first-in leadership funder for the Geospatial Revolution Project.
