NGA partners Vricon on agreement to explore 3D data exploitation

KUALA LUMPUR, April 22 --  Vricon has announced that the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) signed a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) to explore and potentially improve 3D data exploitation.

CRADA is a written agreement that allows federal agencies and non-federal partners to optimise their resources, share technical expertise and intellectual property and increase the commercialisation of federally developed technology.

Simply put, NGA and Vricon will pursue joint research and development goals to benefit both organisations under an agreement that poses no additional costs to the government.

“One of the critical pieces of the CRADA will be our ability to support core NGA functions. We believe this will lead to better fulfillment of the warfighter’s data requirements,” said Vricon’s Technology Evangelist, Barry Tilton.

The CRADA officially starts in April 2020 and could last up to five years, according to a statement.

Vricon serves the global professional geospatial market with world-leading 3D geodata and software solutions. More details at www.vricon.com.
