Esri announced that its technology will be used for the first time with US Navy unmanned vehicle systems to improve how information is gathered before ocean and near-shore operations. Sensor data from maritime remote vehicles is uploaded into a command center where this information can be understood faster and more holistically than ever before. Esri technology knits Navy data together with structured analysis to enable better decision-making. Using Esri’s enterprise software, NMOC can now analyze collected data from the ocean such as water temperature, humidity, wind speed, and topography, all in near real-time. Navy commanders can make faster tactical decisions, better incorporating environmental conditions into operational plans. “The use of Esri’s platform represents a huge improvement in the operational impact of data collected by unmanned marine systems,” said Dawn Wright, Esri Chief Scientist. “We look forward to delivering critical situational awareness for the US Navy during missions.” www.esri.com
