Еще одно приобретение Microsoft для Virtual Earth (Microsoft Acquires Vexcel Corp., a Worldwide Leader in Imagery and Remote Sensing Technology)

Интересное на мой взгляд приобретение, сделанное Microsoft на прошлой неделе, свидетельствует о продолжении сближения областей "тяжелого" хайтека с потребителями. Vexcel Corp. занимается обработкой спутниковых данных (фото, телеметрия) для радарных, картографических, фотограмметрических (Photogrammetry is technology that gleans information about objects by recording, measuring and interpreting images of them and patterns of electromagnetic or radiant energy and other phenomena – определение попахивает колдовством -:) –  ) и других решений. Скоро кое-что из этого будет доступно пользователям local.live.com на базе технологии Microsoft Virtual Earth.   


Founded in 1985, with ongoing leadership from President and CEO, John Curlander, Vexcel is now a multi-national organization with headquarters in Boulder, Colorado and offices in Austria, Canada and the United Kingdom.
