MAY- 2020AEROSPACEDEFENSEREVIEW.COM6EditorialA legion of programmed robots replacing workers at the assembly line is the most recurring and powerful image when we think of AI. Nonetheless, that is not the only use case of AI in 2020. Since the past few years, the domain of geospatial intelligence (GI) has been experiencing revolutionary changes in the ways of collecting, processing, analyzing, and visualizing spatiotemporal data, with the help of AI.And these changes are by far impacting how aerospace and defense sector leverage GI to gather information and minimize casualties in the battlefield. While AI will continue playing a pivotal role in GI, there are also a slew of other innovations that are arming GI with capabilities that were once only in the realm of far-fetched imagination. The current trends appear to point towardrapid integration of 3D visualization tools along with VR, AR, and MR capabilities. All of these are being accomplished with advances of AI/ML in order to efficiently manage `richly' populated geospatial data sets. There is also a renewed interest in remote sensing. The 3D models, landcover classifications, and change detection algorithms from these systems are further empowering the aerospace and defense sector.To simplify the process,this edition of Aerospace and Defense Reviewfeatures a list of companies that are transforming the GI landscape. This edition also blends thought leadership, from subjectmatter experts with real-life stories, including exclusive insights from CIOs and CXOs. We hope this edition will provide you with the right assistance in choosing the best-in-class solution for your recruitment requirements.Let us know your thought!A Bird's-Eye View of BattlefieldJonathan AllredManaging Editorjonathan@aerospacedefensereview.comCopyright © 2020 ValleyMedia Inc., All rights reserved.
