IKONOS Data licensed by ESA
Wednesday, 6 May, 2009
Interesting news over at Mundogeo announcing the licensing of IKONOS imagery by ESA. The interesting aspect is, to quote the article:
“Ikonos as a Third Party Mission is available to Esa and Esa-approved projects for scientific research, applications development, or research and development in preparation for operational use in future, the so-called Category-1 use.”
Which means that an ESA approved project can have access to IKONOS imagery. Potentially a very useful source of data.
