The Geospatial Industry
« Geomatics is to Geospatial what Medicine is to Health »
The geospatial industry gathers all activities, products, services and stakeholders involved in geomatics but increasingly also involved in information technologies (IT), which take advantage of the ubiquitous spatial dimension in data and information (Where).
The definition of the word geomatics is now widely used and quite well defined. But geomatics is mostly known by insiders, people who work with the standard disciplines involved in data acquisition, processing, management and dissemination such as topography, cartography, geodesy, photogrammetry, remote sensing, GIS, and GPS.
Currently, the solutions (tangible or not) offered by the geospatial industry benefit to citizen/administration and client/enterprise relationships. They also help in the activities and operations of any organisation, active on a given territory, and help people at large in their travel, on the Web, etc.
