Riding the Wave of the GEOINT Revolution Webinar Series - When Accuracy Matters: Ground Control Points, Analysis, and Imagery



"Now it's our turn to play our own critical role in protecting the world...to ride this new wave, as a part of this GEOINT revolution we've sparked."
- Dir. Robert Cardillo, GEOINT 2017, National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency
During the 2017 GEOINT Symposium, leaders of the intelligence community outlined a call to action that will move our community forward and highlighted key initiatives that are sparking the GEOINT revolution: automation, machine learning, anticipatory intelligence, and harnessing massive amounts of big data.
 
Join us for a series of complimentary webinars running Monday, July 24 – Thursday, July 27, 2017 presented by leaders from Google, Autodesk, ikeGPS, and more, that will expand on the conversations started during the symposium, discuss current challenges the GEOINT community is facing, and present solutions that will keep the GEOINT revolution moving forward.

When Accuracy Matters: Ground Control Points, Analysis, and Imagery

Reliable Ground Control Points (GCPs) increase spatial accuracy. They are an essential input for precise orthorectification of remotely sensed imagery, exact target locations, image and mapping data quality assessment, and photogrammetric mapping, as well as acting as a fundamental building block of Geographic Information System development. However, it is difficult to accurately model the earth’s surface as well as modeling sensor distortion and orientation. Join this webinar to learn why the spatial accuracy of data is important and why identifying inaccuracies is imperative to the mission of improving the quality spatial data.
