Toward GEOINT Operational Efficiency:

Foundational Digital Twins and Geospatial AI Leads the Way

TPCW2025 will convene leaders from government, academia, and industry to explore a science and technology moonshot: AI-enabled foundation geospatial digital twins – models that faithfully represent Earth’s systems and environments and capture human interaction in space and time at unprecedented precision and scale.

At a pivotal time in our field near-ubiquitous global geospatial data, breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, transformative progress in high-performance and cloud computing, and emerging advances in quantum computing converge for unprecedented potential to understand the Earth in astonishing detail. Satellite and airborne platforms can capture high-resolution observations at eventually hourly intervals, and the scale of incoming data is now beyond hundreds of trillions of pixels.

Realizing this potential remains a grand challenge. It still requires advancing GeoAI workflows, reliable data and computing infrastructure, and trustworthy AI systems across diverse environments and data sources. The outcome is a leap forward in to support operational missions and critical decision-making supporting national security.
