In an ever-changing worldwide social and political landscape, military and intelligence organizations face increasing challenges in obtaining accurate and up-to-date information to make informed decisions and stay ahead of the curve. Access to advancing open-source based technologies continue to increase adversarial capabilities, requiring a fresh approach to traditional analysis which incorporates a faster perspective that is highly adaptable and accessible to a broader audience.
Fortunately, with the emergence of both commercial and publicly-available Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) into Geospatial Intelligence (GEOINT), military and intelligence organizations can now gather medium to high-resolution data of the Earth's surface, even in challenging conditions like darkness or cloud cover. These technologies have become a game-changer, providing valuable insights for improved intelligence analysis, situational awareness, and strategic planning.
Combining these GEOINT technologies with Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) is also a valuable discipline for collecting and analyzing publicly available information to quickly support operations and decision-making. The implementation of commercial and publicly-available SAR into GEOINT and OSINT is revolutionizing the way military and intelligence organizations operate, providing a faster and more comprehensive approach to intelligence gathering and analysis.
