Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance Conference

Dealing with the New Realities, Opportunities and Challenges in Global ISR

Continuing gaps in intelligence information sharing capabilities post 9/11, emerging requirements for new “ISR surges” in Afghan and Iraqi operations, ISR challenges associated with new counter-insurgency and counter-terrorism operations, increased roles for ISR assets across a broad range of new and evolving missions (space defense, maritime domain awareness, global surveillance/global strike, etc.) – these and many other critical issues are driving the ongoing reassessment of our current ISR forces.

This outstanding summit on ISR assembles the key organizations and senior experts who are shaping the direction of ISR requirements and capabilities.

•   What are the OSD and Service strategies, roadmaps, plans, needs and initiatives for ISR
•   What are the hurdles in developing interoperable ISR Networks?
•   What role will DCGS play? Emerging communications network capabilities? Unmanned Aircraft Systems? Space-based assets? Full-Motion Video?
•   Where and how do the differing domain (space, air, ground, sea, cyberspace) requirements intersect?

These and many other critical questions will be exhaustively analyzed during this outstanding two day event.
