GPS/GIS That Works When People Don’t Listen To The “It Can’t Be Done” Experts

Regular readers know I like to write about successes. I especially like to write about old freinds who have been successful. About 4 or 5 years ago, Paul Allred and I were both mid-level UD DoD Civil Servants. Neither of us was in a role where we were expected to lead many people to do great things, but both of us beleived in the power of GPS and GIS to do great things for the military, and we didn’t wait for orders to come down from on high and to do something about it.

I worked on a little project to track staff cars, pickup trucks and nuclear missiles across the plains of the Northern Tier, Paul had his eyes on something bigger.

Go here and read about IRRIS and know that all government employees and government contractors don’t do bad work. Take the time to view the demos, it’s pretty impressive.
