A project for the Navajo Housing Authority, developing orthoimagery and digital elevation models (DEM) for 30,000 square miles transcending four states, has been selected as the Grand Award Winner for the 2012 MAPPS Geospatial Products and Services Excellence Awards.

Frederick, MD (April 12, 2006) - Late afternoon on April 3, the Arkansas Geographic Information Office (AGIO) requested EarthData provide orthoimagery to support the state's response to the April 2 tornado that destroyed a reported 80 percent of Marmaduke, Arkansas.

Under the contract, DigitalGlobe will provide 2-foot resolution, orthorectified, 1:12,000 Digital Ortho Quarter Quadrangles (DOQQs) from QuickBird imagery.
