GEOINT Service Day: Air Force and Space Force



USGIF kicks off a series focused on the GEOINT equities of the U.S. military forces with a day of programming dedicated to the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Space Force. This day of keynotes and panel discussions is sure to inform participants from around the force about how GEOINT matters to them. It also affords the opportunity for participants from USAF and USSF to share insights with GEOINT partners who are working to ensure the nation’s Airmen and Guardians can fly, fight, and win and maintain, protect, and expand our nation’s air and space capabilities. The day includes discussions of how GEOINT enables air and space operations, and also delivers a look into the USAF and USSF programs that include GEOINT equities. The day will be capped off with a look into the promise and disruption represented by technological innovation in air and space domains.
