The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency is leading a new mandate for the intelligence community to turn to commercial sources of GEOINT first. NGA’s new commercial strategy is being led by Dave Gauthier, director of commercial and business operations at the agency. Gauthier spoke with “Inside the IC” about efforts to forge a tighter relationship with the growing commercial space industry, and NGA’s development of a new “commercial supplier matrix.”
