GXP Mosaic

Stewart Walker, GXP Product Initiatives director, traveled to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, New York, to present the BAE Systems Award for Excellence in Photogrammetry to graduating cadet Megan McIntosh. The award, for best performance in photogrammetry by a cadet in geospatial information science, was presented during a ceremony for all 22 cadets graduating from the GIS program. Nicholas Dieter, who won the award in 2008 as a junior, also participated in the ceremony, which marked the third time the award has been bestowed on a cadet.

Walker also presented the BAE Systems Award at the Annual Conference of the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing; 2009 winner Ju Won Hwangbo was the fourth to receive it. The GXP business is exploring further opportunities to institute awards to recognize excellence on the part of young people entering the geospatial sciences field.
