3D visualization for Digital Twins

Digital twins are virtual replicas of physical objects, processes, or systems that are used to monitor, analyze, and optimize their real-world counterparts. These digital twins are becoming increasingly important in fields such as manufacturing, engineering, and urban planning, as they allow us to simulate and test different scenarios before implementing changes in the real world. …

Yet another armed conflict database

Armed conflict databases are collections of information about armed conflicts, including information about the parties involved, the duration of the conflict, and the location of the conflict. We can use these databases for a variety of purposes, including academic research, policy analysis, and conflict resolution. Armed conflict databases can be useful for identifying trends and …

Location intelligence and its sibling Geospatial Intelligence

Location intelligence is a type of data analysis and visualization that helps organizations make better business decisions by using geographic data and mapping tools. It involves the collection, integration, and analysis of geographic data from a variety of sources, such as satellite imagery, spatial databases, and location-based services. This data is then used to create …

Using Sentinel-1 SAR data for Imagery Intelligence – Detection of vessels

Sentinel-1 is the first spacecraft in the European Space Agency’s Copernicus Program satellite system. This mission comprises two satellites, Sentinel-1A and Sentinel-1B, which circle in the same orbital plane. They have a C-band SAR (synthetic aperture radar) equipment that collects data in any weather condition, day or night. The satellites offer a maximum spatial resolution …

Getting insights from political violence and protests around the world

To achieve political goals, we have seen people and governments using political violence. It includes violence between governments, e.g. war as an intense armed conflict, and violence used against non-state actors, e.g. police brutality. A rebellion is a kind of politically motivated violence of non-state actors against a government. The storming of the United States …

GEOINT App: Proof of Concept

There is a need for a high level comparison of different technologies to get a better understanding why we want to use Qt. For this proof of concept we are focusing on desktop development and try to develop a standalone app which offers basemap visualization, feature rendering and querying operational intelligence data. A high level …
