GeoBridge Framework Solutions

Products

For years, intelligence analysts have worked with software tools that are incompatible with one another, creating silos of information that are difficult to share in a time-critical and wide-area environment. Overwatch has broken down this barrier with its GeoBridge Framework Services. GeoBridge is a framework which enables multiple geospatial analysts to communicate, collaborate and interoperate across virtually any network.






Integrated Communications

The capability for real-time intelligence sharing across networks has the ability to profoundly impact intelligence analysts and their clients. GeoBridge allows multiple analysts to interactively share information anywhere in the world. GeoBridge uses a broadcast mechanism to enable communications, utilizing open standards, between local or wide area network users that are logged in to a particular project. Unlike point-to-point solutions, GeoBridge allows any number of users to interactively communicate with one another.

Analysis & Information Sharing

Results from analysis performed on specialized software can be shared with all users logged into the GeoBridge. For instance, bomb blast radii can be shared with Google Earth, ArcGIS, and/or RemoteView users.

Integration with Existing Technology

Analysts have spent years learning mission operations, software packages, and how to effectively operate within their environments. GeoBridge is intended to help leverage analytical experience into new operating environments without requiring new learning curves associated with emerging technologies and changing workflow environments. Leveraging the government's existing investment in imagery analysis and geospatial exploitation software, GeoBridge enables analysts to seamlessly integrate with existing software tools and networks, thereby improving operational continuity and improving analyst efficiency. To date, Overwatch has developed adaptors to many core analytical products, such as Esri's ArcGIS, RemoteView, and Google Earth.
