Joint Agency Commercial Imagery Evaluation (JACIE)
The Joint Agency Commercial Imagery Evaluation (JACIE) was formed to leverage resources from several Federal agencies for the characterization of remote sensing data and to share those results across the remote sensing community (U.S. Geological Survey, 2024).
Remote sensing data and the quality of that data are vital to (1) understanding the physical world and (2) supporting the science and engineering applications that strive to advance that understanding. The growing number of remotely sensed data sources offers users more choices. Understanding the characteristics and capabilities of current and new data sources, along with the quality of data they provide, is an important function of the multi-agency JACIE team. By performing data-quality analysis of civil and commercial remote sensing data and information products, the JACIE team provides the remote sensing community with awareness and independent verification of image data quality.

JACIE Search Tool
Annual Joint Agency Commercial Imagery Evaluation (JACIE) workshops engage federal agencies, their partners, and the commercial remote sensing industry to understand the characteristics and capabilities of current and new data sources, along with the quality of data they provide. This Tool allows the searching of presentations from the workshops, that started in 2001.
USGS-hosted JACIE Workshop Reflects Industry’s Growth
This year’s Joint Agency Commercial Imagery Evaluation (JACIE) Workshop set all kinds of records—more commercial vendors, more presentations, a new networking event and, above all, more people. About 575 signed up for the event, compared to 350 in 2023.
