How has the move to cloud-hosted geospatial services changed the geospatial landscape?
Sensors & Systems
With so many geospatial cloud-hosted platforms and services, and many more on the way, it seems a good time to consider some of the implications. While cloud-hosted platforms and services have cut the barrier to entry for broader use of mapping, they also create many changes in the marketplace. Where in the past the desktop and server environment forced you to purchase data, the cloud platform comes provisioned with data.

Segmenting the location intelligence market
Directions Magazine

Cooperative GNSS authentication
Inside GNSS
Secure, reliable position and time information is indispensable for many civil GNSS applications such as guiding aircraft, tracking freight, synchronizing power grids and cellular networks and time-stamping financial transactions. This article introduces a cooperative signal authentication architecture in which civil GNSS signals, as well as the encrypted military signals on the same frequency, are sampled by a user receiver and several ad-hoc cross-check receivers at the same time.

GE's most important contribution to the smart grid yet (and it's not technology)
Smart Grid News
Nearly one year ago, Hurricane Sandy struck the East Coast, leaving 72 dead, damaging 650,000 homes and knocking out power for 8.5 million Americans. This anniversary serves as a reminder of the challenges facing electric distribution companies as they plan for the future design and operation of the power grid. These utilities are expected to improve their resiliency during severe weather events, replace aging infrastructure, integrate greater quantities of renewable and distributed generation and secure their systems against cyber and physical attacks.
