Geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) is the use of imagery and geospatial information to describe, assess, and visually depict physical features and geographically referenced activities on the Earth. It combines satellite imagery, geographic information systems (GIS), and other data to provide actionable insights for various applications.
Here are some key applications of GEOINT:
National Security and Defense:
Surveillance and Reconnaissance: Monitoring areas of interest for potential threats or activities.Disaster Management and Response:
Natural Disasters: Assessing the impact of natural disasters such as earthquakes, hurricanes, and floods.Urban Planning and Development:
Environmental Monitoring:
Climate Change: Tracking changes in the environment and climate over time.Transportation and Logistics:
Route Optimization: Improving transportation routes for efficiency and safety.Public Health:
Disease Tracking: Mapping the spread of diseases to inform public health interventions.Agriculture:
Precision Farming: Using geospatial data to optimize crop yields and farming practices.Commercial Applications:
Retail: Choosing optimal locations for new stores based on demographic and geographic data.Law Enforcement:
Crime Mapping: Analyzing crime patterns and trends to enhance public safety.Telecommunications:
Network Planning: Designing and optimizing telecommunications networks.Overall, GEOINT leverages the power of location-based data to provide critical insights across a wide range of sectors, enhancing decision-making, operational efficiency, and strategic planning.

The Algorithmic Warfare Cross-Functional Team (AWCFT), commonly known as Project Maven, was established by the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) in April 2017 to accelerate the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies into defense operations. The primary goal of Project Maven is to process and analyze massive volumes of data, particularly full-motion video from unmanned aerial/ground systems, to derive actionable intelligence rapidly.
Project Maven focuses on several key areas:
Project Maven was transitioned to the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) to better integrate its capabilities with the NGA's extensive experience in geospatial intelligence (GEOINT). This move aims to leverage NGA’s infrastructure and expertise to further enhance the DoD’s AI capabilities, particularly in processing satellite imagery and other geospatial data.
The transfer included responsibilities for labeled data, AI algorithms, test and evaluation capabilities, and the associated platforms. The NGA's role in Project Maven allows for a more coordinated approach to developing and implementing AI technologies across the intelligence community. This transition is part of a broader effort to enhance the DoD's ability to process and analyze the vast amounts of data collected from various sensors and sources, ultimately aiming to provide timely and accurate intelligence to support decision-making and operations.
