Remote Sensing Capability Development

Abstract

The RSCD project is the Navy's flagship effort for developing and fielding maritime Artificial Intelligence (AI) / Machine Learning (ML) Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) models in support of the Top Secret / Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) SEAHORSE process. SEAHORSE addresses several Fleet Integrated Prioritized Capability Lists, Chief of Naval Operations Guidance directives, Long Range Fires, and Intelligence Community requirements. RSCD matures and fields AI/ML models designed to detect general maritime objects and specific hard targets that cannot be located by any other means. RSCD partners with the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) and the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency (NGA) to build a streamlined, cohesive end-to-end Tasking, Collections, Processing, Exploitation, and Dissemination (TCPED) process tailored to meet Navy warfighting needs. The RSCD project builds and deliverers AI/ML decision and sense-making applications to the NRO and NGA for inclusion in the National Maritime GEOINT Architecture with the end goal of accelerating the delivery of GEOINT-derived intelligence to the Fleet. FY2025 activities will continue AI/ML application development, deliver Fleet-wide training, and migrate legacy SEAHORSE AI/ML ATR architecture.
