Dubai, August 25, 2006, Global Scan Technologies (GST), a leading company providing Remote Sensing and GIS technologies in the Middle East, announced today that it has signed a contract with ANTRIX Corporation Limited, a leading provider of satellite images worldwide and the marketing arm of the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) under the Department of Space, Govt. of India (DOS).
Our Middle East customers will now benefit from Indian Satellite imagery through this distribution agreement.
"Our agreement with ANTRIX allows us to distribute Indian Satellite imagery in the UAE and many other Middle East countries”, said Dr.Hussein Harahsheh of GST.
"It is very important that we continually expand the uses of satellite imagery, and look for the latest products in the market.
