Abstract

Modern ISR as well as tactical missions have to "operate off the same map"and "get the right data at the right time, in the right format". This poses high challenges as data of substantial variety have to be gathered, homogenized, and distributed in near realtime, including both static, large scale data centers and moving edge devices as heterogeneous sources and sinks. Further, different players, ranging from human analysts to automated effectors, have different needs.Space/time datacubes, AI, and federation are technical concepts generally accepted as advantageous for such tasks aiming at easier, flexible, scalable, and interoperable ad-hoc data insights. The Cube4EnvSec project, supported by the NATO Science for Peace and Security (SPS) program, has set out to demonstrate how a suitable combination of these concepts can substantially enhance the information availability for ISR and the NATO Federated Mission Network (FMN). The Cube4EnvSec services are part of the Earth-Server datacube federation.We present the project, its technology, and use cases.
