Description 1 online resource (28 pages) : color photographs Series CNS occasional paper ; #38 CNS occasional paper ; #38 Summary On June 16, 2018, the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies launched Geo4Nonpro 2.0. With a mission to engage a "curated" crowd of satellite imagery analysis experts, Geo4Nonpro (G4N) is a tool for sharing open-source geographic information of known or suspected weapons of mass destruction (WMD) sites. It has served as the ideal platform for people located around the world to collaborate on satellite-imagery analysis. The most impressive discovery was North Korea's Kangson uranium-enrichment facility. CNS believes it to be the first time this facility has been identified or analyzed in the open-source literature. The first section of this report discusses the evolution of the platform: from the conception of Geo4Nonpro 1.0 and the initial training of G4N team members, to the lessons learned during the first phase of the project and how these lessons fed into the platform's continued development. The second section describes the launch of Geo4Nonpro 2.0, its new features, and highlights news stories that featured Geo4Nonpro and the central role that it played in many of these discoveries. This is followed by an analysis of each campaign. Lastly, the team proposes the next steps and future applications for this innovative platform Notes "October 2018"--Cover Bibliography Includes bibliographical references Notes Online resource; title from PDF title page (Nonproliferation, viewed October 30, 2018) Subject Weapons of mass destruction.
