INTELLIGENCE, SURVEILLANCE, AND RECONNAISSANCE (ISR)
Abstract
This activity supports the demonstration of technologies to enhance situational awareness and tactical decision making through automated analysis, fusion of data, rapid integration of information, and acquired knowledge resulting in actionable intelligence at the lower command levels. The activity includes the demonstration of ISR efforts involving enhanced reconnaissance and persistent surveillance, and sensors for unmanned ground and aerial vehicles. Advanced Technology demonstrations also include the collection of information [monitoring, sensing, and locating] in the 3D urban battlespace as well as exploiting information [identifying and classifying data] as part of the intelligence preparation of the battlespace in order to facilitate operational maneuver and distributed operations. The FY2010 to FY2011 funding increase is due to initiation of robust efforts to automatically fuse data across all identifiers (TTL, biometrics, symbols) based on similarity measures. The FY2011 to FY2012 funding increase is due to acceleration of efforts to develop agile tactical sensor nets to improve the availability, timeliness, and usefulness of battlespace intelligence.
