History
GeoEye was formed in January 2006 when Virginia-based ORBIMAGE purchased the assets of Colorado-based Space Imaging. One of our predecessor companies first began performing geospatial services for the U.S. government in July 1987. In March 2007, GeoEye acquired MJ Harden, enabling GeoEye to expand its offerings to include aerial imagery and specialized geospatial processing services. In December 2010, GeoEye purchased SPADAC, a Virginia-based geospatial predictive analytics company. GeoEye Analytics provides geospatial predictive analytic solutions to over 40 customers in key markets including defense, intelligence and homeland security.
