What People are Saying About This
A superbly crafted and comprehensive exposition of environmental satellite data policy covering public and private sector value and use. Highly valuable and pertinent to understanding today's rapidly changing environmental satellite market!
Open Space is a well-researched and clearly writtenpiece of work at the juncture of public and environmental policy, and can change how governments view, and more importantly treat, data from their environmental satellites which could result in one of the greatest contributions to our understanding of, and actions for, the Earth.

Barbara J. Ryan, Executive Director, Group on Earth Observations (GEO)
Sharing data acquired by orbiting satellites is a key to making possible effective short- and long-term global management of Planet Earth. Mariel Borowitz's comprehensive and penetrating study of why many nations share Earth-observation data, but some do not, is an extremely valuable contribution to crafting a much needed international approach to such data sharing.
