The range of geospatial analysis is quickly expanding, increasing both the potential scope of GEOINT and its overlap with other disciplines and technologies.
This webinar focuses on how to take advantage of one of the primary drivers of this expansion - XML, the universal language for data. XML not only makes it easier for geospatial data to be converted and exchanged among systems, but also permits geospatial enrichment and exploitation of what would once have been considered non-geospatial, unstructured data and textual content.
"Geospatial technology and data are now being integrated with mainstream IT systems in both private industry and government. XML provides the foundation for exchanging information with these IT applications that exposes more users to geospatial information. Join with us at the intersection of geospatial and IT in this truly fascinating and educational webinar." - Joe Francica, Directions Media Editor-in-Chief
Key Learning Points
· Emerging technologies at the intersection of geospatial information, textual content, and XML are driving these important changes
· Intelligence analysts can exploit geospatial information along three new operational dimensions: speed, analysis and process
· Full-text search now combines seamlessly with the geospatial realm
· Government applications of geospatial XML include Open Source Intelligence and all-INT fusion
· Geospatial query capabilities in Mark Logic Server 4.0 provide location awareness to content, metadata, and data applications
Who Should Attend
Professionals throughout the Defense and Intelligence communities who are either responsible for building and implementing information systems that leverage geospatial information, or who rely on geospatial information to perform mission-critical tasks, including senior defense and intelligence management, intelligence analysts, service men and women, congressional decision-makers and staff.
