Thales Edisoft Portugal’s Post

Link was honored to be invited by our esteemed client, Marinha Portuguesa - Página Oficial, to the 1st Symposium on Big Data and Machine Learning, focusing on "Surveillance and Monitoring of Maritime Spaces." The event took place last Friday at the stunning Galeotas Pavilion in the Navy Museum, and featured two insightful panels aimed at sharing knowledge on new technologies to drive digital transformation within the organization. Our very own Rui Maia took part in the "Big Data: Challenges and Opportunities" panel, delving into Maritime Monitoring Systems powered by Artificial Intelligence. 🌐🤖   Currently, we are thrilled to be working on the 2nd major project with the Portuguese Navy, the Big Data Framework - COMAR Expansion. This project aims to enhance the Navy's analytical capabilities on the platform we developed during our first major collaboration.   linkconsulting.com Embrace the digital disruption with us.   #LinkConsulting #BigData #MachineLearning #Innovation #DigitalTransformation

"From Periscopes to Pipelines: Navigating the Depths of Data Governance 🌊⚓" Imagine you’re navigating a submarine through the deep, dark waters of the ocean. As an ex-Navy submarine soldier, I can tell you that this task requires precision, concentration, and a deep understanding of the environment around you. Every mission is critical, and the stakes are incredibly high. This experience has given me a unique perspective on the importance of data governance. Today at 365Scores we leverage Monte Carlo to ensure our data’s accuracy and reliability... 🪸🐬 You are welcome to read... #DataGovernance #DataQuality #MonteCarlo #365Scores #TechInnovation #DataDriven #NavyVeteran #SubmarineExperience

Can the Joint Force do without a specialist in the littoral? I'm recommending an addition to the existing operational-level, functional component-based organizational design, and different command and control options for operations in the littoral. I'm proposing a full-time, ready, responsive, and venturesome Joint Littoral Operations Component Commander.    The littoral is a geographic locale with higher than elsewhere rates of change in momentum, tempo, and maneuver, from seaward to hundreds of miles inland. U.S. forces must continually compensate for this, as well as with the dense interconnectedness of things, people[1] and information in time and space, by employing a wide range of means, including, but beyond, conflict-necessary kinetics, by organizations other than those oriented on spatial domains and warfare expertise. In the littorals around the world, synthesized and synchronized multi-domain expertise is more important than is proficiency by individual components or the services. The Nobel Prize-winning economist Herb Simon used an aphorism in a lecture he once gave: “There is a saying in politics that ‘you can’t beat something with nothing.’ You can’t defeat a measure…simply by pointing to defects and inadequacies. You must offer an alternative.” Okay, Professor Simon, you're right: I'm proposing this addition, rather than just point out that our littoral operations ability is sub-optimized with a long journal article pointing out this degradation. This new component commander would coordinate force interoperability capabilities and actions for littoral access, collection, persistent endurance, influence, and combat. He would have the technical / technological means and the skilled personnel and procedures to leverage low observable technology, long-, medium-, and short-dwell multiple sensor fusion, and advanced integrated networks of manned and unmanned capabilities. And the JLOCC would be trained and become experienced in a non-trivial, key set of characteristics: warfighting in the littoral obtains fighting into it, fighting in it, fighting from it, and, potentially, fighting out of it. [1] Including density of settlements: estimates of populations in the littorals range from 40 to 70 percent of the earth’s humans living within 60 miles of coasts. Want to know more?

Posard, Ashley Gromis, Mary Lee July 25, 2023 UFOs Are Not the Only Potential Threat in American Skies https://lnkd.in/gDnn2FGC If extraterrestrials are visiting our planet, the U.S. government absolutely wants to detect their arrival. But even if they aren't, there are still a host of worrisome objects potentially lurking in our skies that we need to keep an eye out for, such as the Chinese surveillance balloon that flew across the continent back in February. We analyzed 101,151 reports of aerial phenomena made between 1998 and 2022 from 12,783 U.S. Census Bureau designated places. The data came from the National UFO Reporting Center, a nongovernment entity that the FAA references in official documents for where to report unexplained phenomena. (We make no endorsement of this dataset, nor any individual reports logged within it.) Using these data, we looked for predictors—such as distance to military installations, military operations areas, or weather stations—for what had been reported. In the longer term, however, the United States needs a robust system to collect public reports of unidentified aerial phenomena. Such a system could leverage mobile devices, GPS, and artificial intelligence to collect a rich set of data that would include images, audio recordings, and descriptions.

Edgybees is proud to announce that it has secured a pivotal #Georegistration Patent as a major leap in #Geospatial Analysis – “Improving Geo-Registration Using Machine-Learning Based Object Identification” (US Pub 2024/0020968). This technology is critical to defense today, aiding pilots in navigation and analysts collecting #GEOINT in theaters like Gaza and Ukraine. This is especially critical as GPS interference is becoming the norm in conflicts, affecting accuracy for targeting, navigation, and situational awareness. Read the full release and details about the Patent, its ground-breaking impact on commercial and government operations, and commentary from Edgybees CEO Shay Har-Noy and CTO Nitay Megides: https://lnkd.in/ek8nuxzd   Edgybees will be discussing its technology at the Geospatial eXploitation Products™ (#GXP360) Professional Exchange & Workshop on April 8-11 in San Diego.
