Approval for Publishing Imagery
PGC Users planning on attending the upcoming AGU fall meeting and presenting and/or publishing any commercial satellite imagery (i.e. Maxar constellation – WorldView 1/2/3, QuickBird, GeoEye) in a poster or session must receive approval from the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency prior to public release.
PGC makes the approval process simple and streamlined. We ask you to submit the release request form and pre-published material to PGC and we will do the rest. More information about the approval process and acknowledgement policy can be found at the links below. Processing typically takes 24-48 hours so please plan accordingly.
