  • Abstract
    Geointelligence is knowledge extraction from networked databases of Earth images and digital maps. It is particularly focused on practical applications to natural resources management and economic evaluation of oil, gas, minerals, water resources, agri-business and environmental issues. The well-known oilfield area in the Doba region of Chad was chosen to demonstrate basic geointelligence gathering using the Internet.
