The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) is seeking input from industry respondents regarding the obstacles in utilizing commercial remote sensing data and analytic services for defense and intelligence applications. This call for information is part of a study being conducted by ODNI to identify ways to address the challenges faced by commercial analytic product providers when doing business with the Department of Defense (DoD) and the intelligence community.

The request for information defines commercial space remote sensing data as including satellite imagery and non-imagery-derived geospatial information such as automated identification system data and radio frequency-derived algorithms. ODNI is particularly interested in understanding the factors hindering the effective use of these commercial assets for defense and intelligence purposes.

Interested parties are invited to submit their comments and input by September 22. This opportunity allows industry stakeholders to contribute their knowledge and expertise to inform and improve the use of commercial remote sensing data and analytic services in defense and intelligence activities.

Overall, the ODNI seeks to enhance the collaboration between commercial analytic product providers and the DoD and intelligence community. By addressing the barriers in utilizing commercial remote sensing data, the capabilities and effectiveness of defense and intelligence applications can be increased. The input provided by industry respondents will play a crucial role in shaping the future direction of utilizing commercial remote sensing data for national security purposes.
