2. Government Cloud Capabilities
• Government Investment in Cloud Technologies and Data Analytics
• Secure, Operational Systems providing deep analytics into Petabyte level data sets for National Agencies
• Based on Government Off the Shelf (GOTS) and Open Source Software running on commodity hardware
• Coalescing of technologies into a Government Standard Cloud Architecture based on standards, security,
and capabilities
• Fruits of large investments available to all Federal Agencies
• USD(I) – DI2E
• ODNI – I2 Pilot
• NGA – FMV Archive & Exploitation*
• NSA – GhostMachine - SIGINT Cloud Node
• DIA – Orion
• CIA – Commercial Cloud
• Army – DCGS-A
• DARPA – Advanced Indexing and Analytic Research
3. Single Solution for Multiple Missions
• Big Data Storage is ALREADY A COMMODITY
• No Need for expensive non-interoperable Stovepipe Systems
• Single Data Store supporting multiple missions
• multiple data projections
• complex and integrated analytics
•Concentrate mission effort where it is NEEDED
• DO Build customized user interfaces, workflows, and business
logic
• DO NOT build another data stovepipe and non-reusable
application stack

5. Nervve Visual Indexing Capabilities
• Nervve Visual Index allows rapid indexing of PBs of Video and Imagery in Seconds!!!
– Rapid Iteration time (seconds to minutes) enabling easier iterative filtering or several “what if”
scenarios
– Query using single image or image model
– Directly Analogous to text querying of document store
• Infinitely Scalable Architecture with Tunable Indexing
– Can Index streaming or archived video from 10s to 100s times speed
– Linearly scalable no memory shared architecture
– Runs on Commodity Nvidia GPU systems
• 2D Image Based Query Model Generation
– Ability to create Object Model visually representing an Entity (e.g. “White Truck”)
– Ability to Query the Visual Index using Image Models
– Sub-second to seconds result set return time over Petabytes of original Video and Imagery
– Can create for EO, IR, and LIDAR – algorithm is raster based
• Negative Filters
– Do not send images or video containing “Just Unmoving Desert”

6. Data Tactics Enterprise Analytics
• Complex Event Processing Based on Video Content
– Identify and Alert Video and Imagery containing “Person of Interest”
– Tag Video (in-stream or metadata)
– Contact Alerting Engine
• Single Dataspace Ontology “maps” all Imagery and FMV sources to common model
– Enables apples to apples comparisons across various data sets
– Over time creates a “Video Content Log”
– What you are interested is the prioritization of the logging
• Ability to use Semantic Queries on Entities (e.g. People, Cargo, Vessels) over time
periods and within geographic regions
– Complex Descriptions of Entities combining IMINT, VIDINT, SIGINT, HUMINT, etc…
– Can Federate Imagery and FMV Queries across the IC
– Semantic Queries Based NOT on the METADATA but on the CONTENT in the Video

8. NGA FMV Enhanced GM Benefits
• Single Dataspace allows for analysis of complete data sets of NGA
• Complex algorithms can be more easily applied to dataspace using
distributed technologies to support NGA Missions
• Greatly improved access to the large volume and variety of geospatial
knowledge at all security domains
• Open and IC ITE Standards Based Architecture enabling, cross domain
and cross agency sharing and fusion
• Cutting Edge Analytic Capabilities enabling rapid iterations and
hypothesis led analysis and Activity Based Intelligence
• Customer Service aligned data stores, services, and common user
interfaces enabling timely and accurate access to all data on all
domains
• Affordability at Scale
– Commodity Hardware Scales Linearly
– Software costs can be minimized by leveraging GOTS and Open Source
