Leidos To Make Digital Maps
September 23, 2014
GCN reports good news for Leidos: “Leidos To Produce Digital Maps For Intelligence Community.” The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency granted Leidos $20 million for digital mapping production services to be used for national security and geospatial intelligence communities.
Leidos is a large supporter of the National System for Geospatial Intelligence, which governs the technology, policies, and programs behind geospatial intelligence. Leidos Inc. provides solutions for health, engineering, and national security. The company has made many endeavors in map-based intelligence, imagery, and geospatial intelligence, making them an ideal candidate for this new project.
“Under the single-award, indefinite delivery requirements contract, Leidos will work on production flow efficiencies and improved customer services for producing mapping deliverables to the intel community. It will also provide online and on-demand capabilities to the mapping production process, according to the company.”
Leidos is looking forward to making global products that will further NGA’s efforts to deliver them to clients. It looks like Teratext is branching out and trying its hand at mapmaking.
