The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) is a U.S. government agency responsible for providing geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) to support national security. It collects, analyzes, and disseminates information about the Earth's physical features and human activities, using various technologies such as satellite imagery and mapping. NGA plays a crucial role in military operations, disaster response, and humanitarian efforts. By collaborating with other agencies like the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), NGA helps inform decision-making and enhances situational awareness for both government and military leaders.
