Geosemble Selected for Phase II DHS Program

Geosemble Selected for Phase II DHS Program
El Segundo, CA, February 18, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Geosemble Technologies, Inc., announced today that it has been selected to support a Phase II program from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to gather, integrate and display knowledge from geospatial data that will help support the mission of DHS.

As part of a DHS program at the University of Southern California (USC), Geosemble Technologies will support USC in the overall program goals of conducting "research on advanced methods for information analysis and to develop computational technologies that contribute to securing the homeland." USC partners with sixteen other universities and research institutions in a nationwide collaboration, known as the University Programs Center of Excellence for Command, Control, and Interoperability and headed by Rutgers University and Purdue University.

In this capacity, Geosemble will be working to enhance its current GeoXray™ data integration software to automatically integrate and display Web information into maps and aerial imagery. The focus will be on integrating and displaying unstructured content such as blogs, tweets, images, audio and video in order to make that information available quickly and intuitively on desktop and mobile devices.

“This is an important program for Geosemble because it demonstrates our ability to deliver accurate information on both desktop and mobile devices so that end-users can make decisions on-the-go,” said Cyrus Shahabi, Geosemble CTO. “This capability is also a good fit for commercial users in “hyperlocal” applications such as online publishing and local advertising where users require precisely located geographic content,” he said.

The GeoXray solution is finding market acceptance as an information intelligence resource. Industry applications for location-specific data include online publishing, real estate, highway transportation, law enforcement, municipal redevelopment, and other government programs.
