Special Presentations by:

■ RADM Elizabeth Train, USN, - Director, National Maritime Intelligence- Integration Office & Commander Office of Naval Intelligence

■ Mr. Terry Mitchell, Director, USA - Intelligence Futures Directorate, Deputy Chief of Staff, (G2)

■ Mr. Robert “Bo” Marlin, SES, - Deputy  Director, ISR Capabilities, HQ USAF

Discussing 

■ Government and DoD Emerging ISR Needs & Requirements for Automating ISR

■ Mission Challenges, Capabilities and Opportunities – Automating Airborne, Maritime, Battlefield, Homeland Security, Special Operations ISR

■ The Most Critical Capability Gaps and Needs in Information Sharing and Dissemination – Emerging Opportunities for Next Generation Automated ISR

“Obviously, the more help we get – from Congress, from partners (to include industry), from improved Science and Technology – the better off we are. And that’s where automated ISR – among many other important improvements in the way we do business – comes in.”
– Lt Gen (USAF RET), James R. Clapper Jr., DNI

The need for more and better ISR assets now permeates government planning across a broad range of critical missions, including but not limited to: Persistent Global Surveillance & Global Strike, Counter-intelligence & Counter-terrorism, Maritime Domain Awareness, Space Defense, Anti-Access and the Contested Global Commons. From the Middle East to the increasingly tumultuous Asia-Pacific region and even home to CONUS, the need for a diverse and evolving leap-ahead Automated ISR Technology is paramount to counter increasingly sophisticated threats.

This outstanding two day Automated ISR Symposium will assemble the Key Organizations and Senior Leading ISR Experts who are defining requirements and shaping the direction of future automated ISR capabilities for the services and public service sectors. The symposium will focus on identifying the most urgent automation needs and determining how to arrive at the best solutions, on a mission-by-mission basis.
