GEOINT is more than people working with computers in a secure intelligence facility. Join us for the exciting journey to learn about GEOINT’s application in business, law enforcement, and defense. Advances in satellites, GPS, unmanned aerial systems, wireless communications, handheld computing, and the ability to automate laborious map analysis processes has transformed what used to be called geographic intelligence, or GEOINT, and the nature of the insights provided to managers and leaders. We have gone from mountains of hardcopy maps to amazing automated systems that provide previously unavailable understanding. GEOINT helps us daily with near realtime apps. GEOINT combines geographic information science and technologies with an analytic tradecraft. You will experience the value of GEOINT. You will complete a simple geospatial analysis using GEOINT’s tools and tradecraft. This course is for the individual that wants to know what GEOINT is and not for the geospatial intelligence guru. We hope you join the class. We welcome you to the Revolution.
Week One: What is GEOINT?
Learn what GEOINT is and how it provides a powerful way of thinking about, and a toolbox for finding solutions to, complex humanitarian, military, economic, and cultural problems; discuss the aspect of secrecy.
Week Two: GEOINT Data.
Examine the types and nature of data used to create GEOINT including textual information, imagery, and geospatial data; examine how location-based data is changing conceptions of privacy.
Week Three: GEOINT Data Collection.
Experience how GEOINT data is collected by a variety of methods including satellites, drones, crowdsourcing, and social media.
Week Four: The GEOINT Analytic Tradecraft.
Apply the art and science of extracting meaning from GEOINT data to uncover and investigate relationships and patterns.
Week Five: Anticipating the Human Use of Geography.
Use GEOINT principles to evaluate and transform raw data into descriptions, explanations, or judgments.
Learn how the revolution in geospatial technology combined with the tradecraft of Geospatial Intelligence (GEOINT) have changed how we develop insights about the human’s use of geography, and discover the power of GEOINT.
