USGIF Honors Defense Intelligence Agencys Missile and Space Intelligence...



The Defense Intelligence Agency's Missile and Space Intelligence Center (MSIC) was honored by the United States Geospatial Intelligence Foundation (USGIF) with the 2007 Geospatial Intelligence Achievement Award (Government Division). The USGIF Awards Program recognizes those who continue to build upon the intelligence tradition, validating and reinforcing the value the geospatial intelligence field delivers to U.S. national security.





The MSIC team has contributed greatly to the understanding of adversary military capabilities by developing and deploying a GEOINT-enabled Foreign Missile Test Range Analysis architecture. The system was developed by Intergraph Corporation, as part of a team led by COLSA Corporation. The ability to store, manage, query and view vast amounts of military geospatial intelligence data in seconds is a significant achievement. MSIC's daily savings of two to three hours per analyst of data search time has been reinvested into analysis. The new architecture greatly enhances the availability and usability of GEOINT data and results in more all-source analysts leveraging the full potential of GEOINT data as a contributor to their analysis.



"The purpose of the USGIF Awards Program is to give our community the chance to come together to nominate and recognize those who continue to build upon the tradecraft's foundation," said K. Stuart Shea, USGIF President and Chairman of the Board. "Additionally, this program further validates and reminds us of the value the geospatial intelligence field has to our national security."



Shea continued, "On behalf of USGIF, our Membership and Board, I would like to congratulate the Award Program winners on their accomplishments, earning them these notable honors. Their successes have greatly contributed to our field and we are pleased to recognize them for this."


"Intergraph congratulates the MSIC team on their accomplishments and we are proud to have contributed technology solutions to the award-winning MSIC program," said Brig. Gen. Jack Pellicci, U.S. Army ret., senior vice president of Intergraph Corporation's Security, Government & Infrastructure division and general manager of the company's Federal, Security and Intelligence business unit.
