7th Annual Automated ISR and Battle Management Symposium

February 12-13, 2019 | Mary M. Gates Learning Center, Alexandria, VA

The 7th Annual Automated ISR and Battle Management Symposium encourages members of the DoD, Intelligence Community, military services, and critical organizations to come together to discuss solutions and techniques to exploit ISR data in support of the warfighter. Due to the high volume of data being generated, operators have turned their focus towards increased ISR capabilities and expedited efficiency in PED to ensure timely and accurate intelligence. This program will facilitate discussions aimed at enhancing ISR capabilities and emphasizing the significance of battle management systems to fight and win in a multi-domain environment.

2019 Confirmed Speakers Include:

Lt Gen VeraLinn “Dash” Jamieson
Deputy Chief of Staff for ISR, HQAF

Maj Gen Peter Lambert, USAF
Deputy Director for ISR Operations, Joint Staff J-32

Brigadier Phil Clark
British Army, Deputy Director of Intelligence, CENTCOM

Terry Busch
MARS Program Director, DIA

Col. Timothy Lawrence, USAF
Director, Information Directorate, and Commander, Detachment 4, ARL Rome

Why you should attend this year's Symposium:

This educational symposium will bring together senior Intelligence officials, military leaders, academia, and solution providers to ensure ISR resources are being utilized as effectively and efficiently as possible in support of mission success.

The objective of this year’s symposium is to emphasize the increased need to modernize and develop the next generation of ISR platforms in order to ensure dominance in a peer-to-peer environment. These platforms will need to function across multiple-domains at the speed of modern technology and in wide variety of environments. The battlefield of the future will be fought in both the real and cyber world simultaneously and the US military will need systems able to collect in both of them instantaneously.

This symposium will feature senior level discussions that emphasize utilizing machine learning and other advances in modern technology to reduce the workload on the analyst and better support the warfighter. Also discussed will be DoD efforts to leverage developments in ISR to improve Multi-Domain Command and Control in order to maintain dominance in a peer to peer world. This symposium will allow for open and honest dialogue to solve the nation’s most difficult challenges surrounding the efficiency of ISR capabilities.
