3. Dedicated Technology & Innovation Focus Day
Tuesday 11 September 2012
A must-attend for all involved in tapping on geospatial
technologies to enhance mission success.
Find out how geospatial enterprise technologies can:
Optimise maritime surveillance for illegal fishing and people smuggling in Australian waters
Combat maritime piracy in the Melaka Straits
Determine the likelihood of North Korean submarines operating in the Sea of Japan
Build nautical charts that address new international shipping lanes in the Philippines
Rapidly alert the New Zealand authorities to flagged vessels entering their territorial seas
TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION FOCUS DAY
As the foundation for multi-scale nautical mapping, dynamic tracking data and mission planning, geospatial technology clearly plays an
important role. It delivers information superiority, deciding the outcome of a battle well before shots are fired. It is a force multiplier,
significantly increasing the potential of a force and enhancing the likelihood of a successful maritime mission.
The benefits of geospatial technologies are evident. The key, thus, becomes how to effectively leverage new technologies and integrate
them into your current capabilities to deliver the desired effects.
The dedicated Technology & Innovation Focus Day will make use of real world challenges in the maritime environment to demonstrate
how geospatial enterprise technology can be optimised for your organisation and operations.
Enabling the rapid fusion, analysis and delivery of information to and from a command using the logistics chain and communications
