Live Demo Agenda
Day 1
January 24, 2012 10:30 – 11:30 New Sources, Tools & Collection Methods For Satellite & Other Imagery
This session is dedicated to looking at the different sources of imagery available to your defence organisation. It will explore the new tools available for imagery collection, as well as focus on the new sources of imagery and the tools for its effective collection. Most organisations are drowning in the quantity of imagery available to them, and are often collecting without using a critical & selective approach to the process. Imagery analysts will form a panel to outline their challenges, and speak about future requirements and the need for new solutions. The session will feature a number of product demos and solution presentations, focusing on the latest innovative and cutting edge ideas. 11:45 – 12:45 Strategies & Effective Solutions For Storing Imagery & Data: The Future Of The Cloud
60% of Global CIOs are now preparing to invest in cloud computing: double the number from two years ago. Some experts believe that the cloud will top the internet in importance. This session is designed to give you the innovative tools and new ideas for using cloud effectively in your organisation. Find out how the cloud can release resources, improve interoperability and maximise integration in your organisation. Build your vision of the online on demand user experience during this session. A series of innovative solution presentations followed by a debate on the utility and best use of cloud computing will form the basis of this session. 13:00-14:00 Lunch - Free To All Expo Visitors 13:00-14:00 Using UAVs As Part Of Your Multi-Int Strategy: Strategy & Practical Applications
The need and utility of unmanned aircraft continues to grow, but the technology could also limit your services operational responsiveness. However, while current technologies may be reaching their limits, the defence organisations around the world are investing in future systems that will vastly increase the capabilities of robot aircraft through increased autonomy. UAV's not only collect data, but process and analyse it. Join this session to see some of the most effective and innovative UAV solutions, and to hear about the most interesting and successful cases of UAV use in the geoint domain.
14:00 – 15:30Analysing Data: Tools, New Solutions & Successful Live Demos
This session is designed to bring you up to speed with the latest geoint data analysis tools available to your organisation. As the quantity of data grows, the tools are becoming more sophisticated and targeted. Find out if you are asking your technology and solution providers the right questions, and find new ideas for your organisation. Becoming flexible, fast and nimble will change your geoint capability from a source of data to a source of useful analysis and effective decision-making tools for the users.
15:30 – 17:00 Delivering The Right Intelligence To The Right User On Time: From Maps To Apps
In many of her presentations and guest addresses, the NGA Director, Letitia Long, mentions two key priorities for the organisation: broadening and deepening the analytic expertise and providing online on-demand access to geoint knowledge and tools. This session is all about providing online on demand apps that will change the way your colleagues use geoint. Empowering the user to create apps and make the content accessible globally are at the core of this session. See the latest apps that have been successfully used, question the solution providers, and get new ideas for your organisation.
Day 2
January 25, 2012 Live Demo Agenda
11:00 – 12:30 Using Crowd Sourcing Techniques In Your GeoInt Capability: Giving The User A Broader Operational Picture
Social media, online open source and crowd sourcing can no longer to be ignored. In fact, they are quickly becoming a powerful source of data and analysis. This session is all about how open source software projects can be applied in your organisation to manage and complete complex tasks. It is almost certain that crowdsourcing will dramatically change the nature of geoint and intelligence in the future. As crowdsourcing continues to make previously scarce resources become much more abundant, your strategies will change and evolve dramatically.
12:45 – 14:00 Lunch - Free To All Expo Visitors 14:00 – 15:15 Building Your Strategy Based On Effective & Efficient Use Of Mobile Devices
The innovation focus day will finish with a session dedicated to effective data dissemination strategies. Supporting warfighters, by giving them an easy to use, inexpensive and effective mobile device, is vital to the success of any data and intelligence dissemination project. Find out what devices are best for your projects, get the latest on IT gadget innovation and learn how you can drive down the cost of hardware solutions. 15:30 – 17:00 Delivering The Right Intelligence To The Right User On Time: From Maps To Apps
