The Institut Géographique National (IGN) is the national mapping agency for
France, with 1800 employees and a mandate to collect, integrate, manage and
distribute reference geographical information for the whole country.
Infoterra has been in the geospatial business for over 25 years, since its founding in 1980 as the UK National Remote Sensing Centre. In that time, NRSC grew, formed international partnerships with space agencies, expanded into aerial data collection, and was eventually privatized and re-named “Infoterra” in the late 1990s.
