New Video: Query multiple APOLLOs and GeoHubs at once...directly from a 3D globe!

Take 2 minutes and watch how easy it is to query multiple data management systems at once from a 3D virtual globe!

Use the ERDAS TITAN Viewer 3D virtual globe (or you can use the Geospatial Instant Messenger as well) and simultaneously broadcast a query across multiple data management systems, including ERDAS APOLLO Image Managers (EAIM) and ERDAS TITAN Network GeoHubs. There are also advanced search parameters available for searching APOLLOs, including time stamp, type and availability.

Discover data and metadata, and immediately visualize layers in the TITAN 3D Viewer, or load layers directly into Google Earth or Microsoft Virtual Earth.

This slide does a nice job of summing up the TITAN solution:

Tracking Invaders

Was that funny looking bug I flicked off my arm while gardening this weekend a local...or is it an invader?!

Should we be concerned about the risk of invasive species? A study by UF professor Andy Tatem measures global risk of invasive species using an interesting mix of climate data and transport geography.

Check out the article and the map showing projected "traffic-scaled climatic similarity index" for international airports in April 2010. Tatem's map would suggest Europe has the highest risk.
