At TED2003, producer and technologist Dan Dubno contextualizes new world threats faced by news and government agencies and the tools he uses to illustrate them. One of them being EarthViewer (the precursor to Google Earth): a web-based view of the world through satellite imagery. On stage with John Calkin, Dubno also briefly demos Consequences Assessment Tool Set (CATS): a product of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) that aimed to figure out how to visualize and democratize geographic information.

NOTE: Comments are disabled on this video. We made this difficult decision for the TED Archive because we believe that a well-moderated conversation allows for better commentary from more people and more viewpoints. Studies show that aggressive and hateful comments silence other commenters and drive them away; unfortunately, YouTube's comment moderation tools are simply not up to the task of allowing us to monitor comments on so many videos at once. (We'd love to see this change, YouTube.) So for now, if you'd like to comment on this talk, please use Facebook, Twitter or G+ to discuss with your networks.
