URTHECAST TEAMS WITH NASA TO STREAM LIVE HIGH-DEFINITION EARTH VIDEO

UrtheCast Corp. has teamed with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to stream real-time Earth video data from NASA's high-definition Earth-viewing system (HDEV) aboard the International Space Station (ISS) to UrtheCast's interactive Web platform.

"This summer we'll begin feeding live video data from the HDEV cameras to UrtheCast's Web platform, our interactive hub of Earth video and imagery," explained UrtheCast's chief executive officer and co-founder, Scott Larson. "NASA's on-line HDEV channel has already garnered over 46 million views in under a year, so this is no doubt an exciting opportunity for everyone involved. With this resource, we'll tap into a view of the world that is not only breathtaking, but incredibly inspiring."

"Our platform is designed in such a way that will really make this HDEV data shine," explained UrtheCast vice-president of technology, Dan Lopez. "The video stream itself will provide yet another innovative layer to our Web platform offering. It will be integrated into the UrtheCast feed and APIs, which will provide a rich, interactive media experience for viewers and application developers."
