WESTMINSTER, CO, April 3, 2019 /PRNewswire/ - Maxar Technologies (NYSE: MAXR) (TSX: MAXR), a global technology innovator powering the new space economy, today announced that Vulcan Inc. has signed a multi-year EarthWatch subscription, a cloud-based product for viewing, streaming and downloading Maxar's industry-leading geospatial data, which will be used to develop solutions to Vulcan's impact projects which address some of the world's toughest challenges, like detecting and identifying illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing for law enforcement.
