Monday Boot Camp

Get a head start on the conference by attending GXP Boot Camp! This full day of training will lay the foundation for the rest of the conference by offering a comprehensive overview of GXP software capabilities, including courses on GXP Xplorer, SOCET GXP, GXP WebView, GXP InMotion, and introducting GXP Fusion. Group instruction, supplemented by self-paced curriculum, will cover the use of product search methods and tools, creation of image and video products, and more.

• 1st phase imagery analysis with GXP Xplorer and GXP WebView

  Analysts will learn how to conduct 1st phase analysis using GXP Xplorer and GXP WebView in a web browser. We will discuss GXP Workflows for automated notifications, how to connect to external data sources, discover imagery and products in GXP Xplorer, and exploit selections using GXP WebView. In addition, attendees will discover how to add annotations, apply templates, manage saved workspaces, and publish imagery-based products back out in multiple formats or save them to GXP Xplorer.

• Full Motion Video (FMV) exploitation with GXP InMotion

  This course will highlight GXP FMV exploitation capabilities using web, desktop, and server while walking users through workflows integrating products across the GXP ecosystem. Attendees will learn how to utilize GXP InMotion, SOCET GXP, and the GXP Xplorer Platform to empower a complete end-to-end workflow from product creation to enterprise dissemination.

• Utilizing SOCET GXP to create structured observations

  Attendees will learn how to build an Observation database and leverage it through the SOCET GXP Structured Observation Management (SOM) tool. Additional discussion will focus on how to create and discover observations across the entire GXP Xplorer Platform (including GXP WebView and GXP Fusion). Note: The connection to artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) results, as well as features and population of SOM databases, will also be reviewed.

• Exploitation of advanced GEOINT sources

  Have you wanted to learn more about advanced GEOINT exploitation, but just haven’t had the time to attend a GXP regional training class? Join us for this special course to discover new ways to efficiently exploit Multispectral (MSI), Hyperspectral (HSI), and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data through a variety of different tools and algorithms within SOCET GXP.

• Elevate your SOCET GXP experience

  Learn new ways to implement and integrate elevation data into your workflows to increase accuracy and productivity. Data from several different sources will be included in the terrain that participants will develop during this course. Make sure to take advantage of this hands-on class in which attendees get to create their own data as GXP support staff guides everyone through the process.

• GXP at the tactical edge

  In the absence of external networks, attendees will learn how to utilize GXP Xplorer Disconnected, as well as SOCET GXP and GXP WebView, to efficiently deliver imagery intelligence to the frontline operator in a deployed tactical environment. We will also cover the synchronization of multiple instances of GXP Xplorer across an enterprise, as well as how to publish out Compressed ARC Digitized Raster Graphics (CADRG) / Controlled Image Base (CIB) data to non-intel users such as aircrew and operations.

Domestic and International Sessions

Domestic Sessions

• Domestic Session 1: Targeting workflows

  In light of the U.S. Military’s recent shift from a focus on counterinsurgency to near peer threats, it has become evident that intelligence professionals must adapt to a new paradigm that places a renewed focus on advanced targeting workflows. As a result, defense and intelligence agencies are evolving their methodologies for deriving accurate points, simplifying workflows, and communicating precision mensuration down range to ensure mission success. In this first of two U.S. sessions, we will discuss these new targeting methodologies as well as recent innovation designed to assist warfighters as they adapt to this pivot.

• Domestic Session 2: Exploitation of data

  Sources of intelligence and methods of creating intelligence value for decision makers have changed with the U.S. Military’s recent “nation-state pivot.” For example, traditional SAR and GMTI is now of greater significance in determining adversary locations and intentions, and situational awareness of near-peer units and assets has made SOM (Structured Observation Management) much more important to today’s intelligence analyst. In this second U.S. session, these elements, as well as some new technologies and tools to make sense of today’s new reality, will be discussed in detail.
  Note: A U.S. Common Access Card (CAC), IC badge, or passport is required to attend this session.

International Sessions

• Session 1: Technology Partners

  Please join us for a special introduction to select GXP technology partners as they deliver 15 minute Lightning Talks on their product offering and detail how their solutions integrate into the GXP ecosystem. Areas of focus during this session will include new types of data, as well as AI/ML technologies including Natural Language Processing, Automatic Georegistration (for targeting and video), and Object Detection from EO/SAR/IR imagery.

• Session 2: International Focus Capabilities

  This session will focus on how the GXP ecosystem can be augmented and enhanced through third-party capabilities including supplemental data sources and advanced AI/ML tools. Attendees will also learn how GXP supports NATO standards such as CSD synchronization, Intelligence Requirements, and Intelligence Collection Management.
