“The LMA fills a long-standing gap in location media coverage due to the fragmentation of the industry and the media outlets,” said Natasha Léger, editor of LBx Journal and LMA member. With a combined audience reach of 59,300 business, technology, and policy professionals, the LMA will cross-promote and work together in all aspects, serving distinct user and vendor domains while collectively spanning the full breadth of the geospatial industry and location-based applications.
Geospatial companies typically go to market as vertical applications or horizontal technologies. The problem is that location is really a diagonal; it cuts across multiple departments, disciplines, and industries. “The LMA provides the means to effectively communicate applications, technology, business, and policy to detail the power of location analytics, geospatial and remote sensing technologies to improve our world—socially, politically, and economically,” said Léger.
“Denver continues to be a hub for geospatial technology application and innovation in the United States and the world,” said Matt Ball, founder and editor at Vector1 Media. “As we are all Denver-based, our proximity to this action gives us a unique vantage point that we’ll continue to exploit to promote the revolutionary advantages of geospatial data and solutions.”
“The timing of the LMA launch coincides with the Landsat Data Continuity Mission launch as well as the opening day of the International Lidar Mapping Forum in Denver,” said Myrna James Yoo, publisher of Imaging Notes. “This coincidence is serendipity, but also a conscious decision on our part as we align ourselves with today’s events to address both cutting edge tools and the long-term legacy of the geospatial industry. These advancements in data collection usher in new capacity to inform decisions.”
