Geospatial Intelligence

Click for larger view AGI technology provides a "geodynamic" layer to standard geographic information system (GIS) analysis. Using AGI's flagship product, STK, geospatial analysts can calculate the precise locations of dynamic platforms and assets and model sensor motion and fields of view for target acquisition and collection planning. STK can also import geospatial map files from ESRI for analysis; manage terrain and imagery data; and ingest telemetry and tracking data to enhance real-time situational awareness. Being able to fuse geospatial data and asset inter-relationships within a realistic 3-D display provides a unique ability to manage, manipulate, visualize, and analyze imagery and geospatial information to assess a situation and make informed decisions.

In conjunction with the GIS Analyst Extension, STK integrates with ESRI’s ArcGIS engine runtime and enables STK users to connect to any GIS format that ESRI supports. STK leverages the ESRI map document which permits all of the properties of the document to be preserved in the user’s scenario. Users can also select pieces of geospatial data loaded into their scenario and easily create representative STK objects for analysis. GIS Analyst is designed for users who interface heavily with GIS data and those within GIS enterprise environments, such as intelligence collection planners, intelligence analysts, and military planners.

STK analysis can be exported for visualization in Google Earth, Microsoft Virtual Earth, and other virtual globes. Click here to visualize analysis for geospatial intelligence in Google Earth.

AGI offers a set of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software tools for geo-referenced analysis and visualization of dynamic objects in real or simulated time. Geospatial intelligence professionals can use the software to:

  • Integrate displays for time-dynamic land, sea, air, and space assets
  • Import GIS vector data sets to create area targets, line targets, or facilities for analysis
  • Display real-time tactical information of the battlespace with MIL-2525b symbology
  • Add imagery/maps support (CADRG, ADRG, Mr. Sid, CIB, NITF, GeoTIFF)
  • Analyze and visualize the effects of terrain (NGA DTED Levels 1-5) and other constraints
  • Perform qualitative assessments for sensor collection
  • Determine collection performances for Advanced Geospatial Intelligence (MASINT), IMINT, SIGINT, and other systems
  • Analyze communications link and interference
  • Predict navigation accuracy
  • Model weather data for analysis
  • Visualize, query, and interrogate spatially enhanced databases
  • Export analysis to external applications for sharing and collaboration
