Early next week I’ll have the pleasure of speaking with Matt O’Connell and Henry Dubois, the CEO and CFO of GeoEye, Inc. (Nasdaq: GEOY) respectively, in a recorded audio format.

The interview will cover a broad range of topics from what GeoEye does, to the launch of GeoEye-1 and GeoEye’s upcoming prospects in the satellite mapping industry.

(Update: listen to my EXCLUSIVE interview with GeoEye’s management team here.)

I wanted to take this opportunity to reach out to those who might not ever have this kind of access to inside management at a company like GeoEye, and see if there were any specific questions that YOU would like to ask.

I know that when it comes to GeoEye the stock and the company, there is a lot of confusion out there, and misinformation both in the retail trading environment as well as on Wall Street.

This will be your chance to get to know the management team at GeoEye and hear, in their own words, exactly what’s going on, and what we can expect in the months and years to come.

Just in case you didn’t already know, GeoEye is a provider of space-based and aerial imagery and geospatial information.

Its imagery information products enable customers to map, measure, and monitor the earth for intelligence gathering, precision mapping, construction planning, and environmental monitoring applications, among others.
