New Additions Bring Number of Sustaining Members to More Than 85
HERNDON, Va., January 17, 2006 – The United States Geospatial Intelligence Foundation (USGIF) today welcomed twelve additional new members, bringing the total number of sustaining members to more than 85. New sustaining members include BBN Technologies, BEA Systems, Inc., CACI, DataDirect Networks, Essex Corporation, JL WHITE and Associates, Leica Geosystems Geospatial Imaging, Pangia Technologies, The Potomac Advocates, Red Hen Systems, Inc., SI International, and Zanett, Inc.
The growing number of sustaining and individual members continues to support the Foundation’s vital role as the forum for individuals, companies, and organizations that work in geospatial intelligence to come together for the benefit of the tradecraft. The addition of these new sustaining members continues USGIF’s trend of rapid growth that began when it launched in January 2004.
“We are pleased to welcome these new members to our foundation,” said K. Stuart Shea, chairman of the board of directors, USGIF. “Our goal is to help ensure that their important contributions to our tradecraft will have even more of an impact on our country’s national and homeland security because of their involvement in the USGIF.”
The United States Geospatial Intelligence Foundation is a Virginia-based nonstock, not-for-profit corporation. The Foundation is dedicated to promoting the geospatial intelligence tradecraft and developing a stronger community of interest between government, industry, academic and professional organizations and individuals who share a mission focus around the development and application of geospatial intelligence data and geo-processing resources to address national security objectives.
