Panel members will discuss the challenges of delivering and receiving actionable intelligence from platforms to tactical operators. Dissemination focuses on the sending of imagery and we are in an age where sensors are everywhere (at the tactical level and strategic level) and the need for access is much more synchronous. This group will ex...

There has been a lot of excitement about the use of computer vision (CV) and machine learning (ML) technologies for geospatial imagery analysis. As there are many use cases where these technologies can be employed effectively to solve real problems, it is tempting to try and apply them on any problem involving the use of imagery. CV and ML solutions do not typically yield perfect answers, and therefore human+machine teaming becomes a natural a...

Today’s geospatial professionals are increasingly called upon to deliver content in the form of interactive web apps. This can be challenging with traditional architectures, both because of the inflexibility of conventional template-based approaches, and due to major performance issues when delivering large geotemporal data across the web. OmniSci is a GPU database with built-in high performance geographic rendering (capable of handling...
