The growing role of Social Media and OSINT sources within intelligence exploitation, the optimisation of support for targeting, the future of Big Data architecture and how can predictive analytics can make a substantial contribution towards the optimisation of defence procurement processes are all issues that will be addressed at the next Global Big Data Defence Summit in June 2017 in Berlin.’
Along four different streams: collection, analysis, dissemination and exploitation; key decision-makers and experts representing a number of Ministries of Defence and collective defence institutions such as NATO, will analyse the role of Big Data at the time of tackling the current overload of information that is affecting military operations.’
Global Big Data Defence 2017 Summit will provide you with :
- An update on the European Defence Agency future implementation plans regarding Modelling and – Simulation and CIS solutions
- Further details about the Indian Armed Forces roadmap regarding the application of Big Data solutions in a number of fields such as procurement, logistics and naval forces
- An overview of how the’
500 million investment over 5 years (2016-2020) allocated to the Big Data PPP from Horizon 2020 can affect the European defence industry - How the EU Commission, the US and leading-industry are planning to further increase cooperation under the Picasso Project
About Big Data and Defence:
Data collection has become a critical aspect in today’s military operations. However, modern armies are finding hard to effectively analyse and exploit all the data collected within a multisource environment, including C4ISR, OSINT, GEOSINT, Multilingual and Coalition sources.’
The impact that Big Data can have at the time of providing timely situational awareness for effective decision making can be key. Through the use of this technology; collection, integration, storage and organisation of information can be better achieved as all-source analysts will be able to get actionable intelligence in a timely manner.
