Intelligent Situational Awareness

The increasing availability of satellite Earth Observation (EO) data is revolutionising situational awareness capabilities. The risk, however, is that operators in commercial, maritime, land and other environments will not be able to assimilate, understand and react knowledgeably to all the available data. The project aims to develop the SiriusInsight situational awareness platform which will operate in the maritime domain. The platform will analyse data from multiple sources including geospatial datasets (Big Data) in order to make sense of the environment through use of pioneering Artificial Intelligence technologies and then propose actions based on that data. Sirius aims to bring together current and developing Artificial Intelligence (AI) with profound operational expertise and end-user understanding to create a new platform delivering Actionable Intelligence. This real-time situational awareness, with automated feature detection and classification, will further incorporate accountable machine-prompted actions initially in the maritime environment.
