Join us for a discussion on a groundbreaking initiative from the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) — a $700 million investment in data labeling to empower artificial intelligence in geospatial intelligence.
NGA’s data labeling initiative is a pivotal part of its mission to harness the power of AI to enhance U.S. defense and intelligence operations. In this session, our panel will dive into how structured, labeled geospatial datasets—like satellite images, maps, and sensor data—are transforming intelligence and operational support.
This labeling process provides “ground truth” data that is essential to high-performing AI models, with human annotators ensuring these datasets capture real-world complexities that AI alone might overlook.
Discussion Topics:
Data Labeling for Machine Learning: How annotated geospatial data drives AI accuracy
Impactful Applications: NGA’s initiative to improve object detection, environmental monitoring, and infrastructure classification
The Future of Geospatial Intelligence: How NGA’s $700M initiative is setting new standards in defense and intelligence
