According to a recent press release by ESRI - The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center's Topographic Engineering Center (TEC) and ESRI signed a cooperative research and development agreement..
They both will work for :
* Design mobile geospatial applications that take advantage of server technology for data updates and synchronization when connected and also operate as independent, stand-alone units when disconnected.
* Prepare image services that exploit BuckEye imagery, a combination of high-resolution color images and lidar data that supports intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) and tactical operations. BuckEye imagery is a proven important geospatial resource used in Iraq and Afghanistan.
* Design and create several advanced technology defense prototypes that improve the ability of command and control systems to operate with geospatially aware battlefield objects, server technology that provides tactical-situation awareness, and geospatial technology to analyze human intelligence.

Network of Young Researchers in GISc
The young researcher forum for Geographic Information Science aims to help participants of the GI-Days 2007 and other young researchers in field to stay in contact. The forums can be used to discuss current trends in GIScience, to get in contact with other researchers in the field, and to discuss problems and ideas regarding your ongoing (PhD) projects.
