About Geosemble Technologies, Inc.

Founded in December of 2004, Geosemble Technologies is a spin-off from the University of Southern California (USC). Geosemble’s founders were faculty members in Computer Science when they developed the company’s core Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms. Since that time, the technology has been strengthened and refined to apply to a range of commercial and government user needs focused on automatically integrating information into satellite and aerial imagery and maps.

Key development funding has come from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the National Science Foundation (NSF), the U.S. Air Force, and other U.S. Government agencies. Geosemble has numerous patents pending in the fields of Artificial Intelligence and Geospatial Data Fusion.

All of Geosemble’s technical staff have at least a Master’s Degree in Computer Science, with fully 60% holding Ph.D.’s. Our technical work is done entirely on site in our El Segundo, California facility. Geosemble has several important partner relationships that include Google Earth Enterprise, Oracle, Fetch Technologies, and CyberCity3D. Our intellectual property counsel is Palo Alto, California-based Carr & Ferrell LLP. In March, 2009, Geosemble became part of the In-Q-Tel portfolio of technology companies.
