Summary

[edit]
Description

Seal of the United States National Imagery and Mapping Agency (NIMA), the old name of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. According to the NIMA: Imagery, mapping, space, and the power of technology are all embodied within NIMA’s seal. The eagle and stars symbolize the principles of freedom upon which America was founded and the vital national security mission entrusted to our agency. The laurel represents honor and high achievement, and the three crossed arrows represent our role in supporting America’s total military preparedness and defense. Imagery and mapping are expressed by the globe and the vastness of our reach by the black background, which represents outer space. Our motto, “Timely, Accurate, and Precise,” conveys the spirit, sense of purpose, and deep dedication we at NIMA bring to

the fulfillment of our mission.
