DigitalGlobe<\/a> is a company that has satellites take pictures of global terrain. It has taken more than 400,000 photographs of the oceans around Malaysia after March 8th and put them up for free public study on the Tomnod.com website. Go to Tomnod.com to look at the pictures and help find the aircraft.<\/a><\/p>\n

DigitalGlobe keeps track of the locations mentioned by the public, then uses cluster analysis on the location data to find hot spots. These hotspots can then be handed over to search and rescue teams so that they can physically fly over the spot.<\/p>\n

If this process leads discovery of the missing airliner, it will indeed be a crowning glory for Big Data Analytics.<\/em><\/p>\n
