Renewed focus on great power competition is an opportunity for the GEOINT community to leverage new technologies to outpace U.S. adversaries. The nation and the geospatial intelligence community are at an inflection point, necessitating a revolution in GEOINT capabilities, the IT architectures that support them, and the organizational cultures and practices to transform at the speed needed to maintain GEOINT dominance. During this event, we...

This forum will offer discussions on current challenges and strategic initiatives related to the role of commercial technology and innovation including artificial intelligence, machine learning, automation, augmentation, cognitive computing, computer vision, and commercial data sources in geospatial intelligence. Myriad innovative thinkers in a range of verticals—both providers and consumers alike—will gather for insightful discuss...

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...
