Abstract

World military force structure is dramatically changing as collectively; our armed forces undergo a major transition from unprofessional to the Objective Force (designed to capitalize on information-age based technologies and Human Interaction to Non-Human Interaction). Traditional “stovepipes” among services are being eliminated and replaced with integrated systems that allow joint forces (combined Army, Air Force and navy) to seamlessly execute required tasks. This study was undertaken in conjunction with Geospatial Technology (Shows Space and Time) and Geospatial Intelligence Analysis (Use Algorithm, Use AI Concepts, IMINT and GEOINT). In order to successfully support current and future Ethiopian military operations in war zones, geospatial technologies and geospatial intelligence must be integrated to accommodate force structure evolution and mission requirement directives. The intent of joint intelligence operations is to integrate Ground, Air and Navy Forces at war zone and also give COP (“common operational picture”) for Operational and Tactical Commander Service and national intelligence capabilities into a unified effort that surpasses any single organizational effort and provides the most accurate and timely intelligence to commanders.

Highlights

  • Geospatial technology offers a wide range of innovative and cost effective solutions for environmental sustainability; many countries appreciate the relevance of geospatial technology in the sustenance of our environment

  • This study was undertaken in conjunction with Geospatial Technology (Shows Space and Time) and Geospatial Intelligence Analysis (Use Algorithm, Use AI Concepts, IMINT and GEOINT)

  • Objective one: geospatial information use in military operations There are numerous critical and advanced image data collection technologies that define unprecedented military intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities. These advances enhance the detectability of features and targets across the littoral battle space, improving distance ranging, “turning” night into day for some classes of operations, reducing the risk of friendly fire incidents and further accelerating operational tempo [4]

Summary

Introduction

Geospatial technology offers a wide range of innovative and cost effective solutions for environmental sustainability; many countries appreciate the relevance of geospatial technology in the sustenance of our environment. In this regard, the emphasis should be on accessibility and distribution of available information over a wide range of networks and environmental information market-places [1]. In order to successfully support current and future Ethiopian military operations in war zones, geospatial technologies and geospatial intelligence must be integrated to accommodate force structure evolution and mission requirement directives. Service and national intelligence capabilities into a unified effort surpass any single organizational effort and provide the most accurate and timely intelligence to commanders [2]
