PAR Government is the recognized expert in mobile situational awareness and geospatial technology including full-motion video. Their goal is to help users best manage their information in any type of dynamic environment, whether that be military assets, first responders, local government, or international allies.

TeamConnect-Sit(x) is a SaaS solution hosted in the FedRAMP compliant Amazon GovCloud that delivers next generation TAK Server capabilities. It supports federation with GOTS TAK Servers and provides an intuitive user experience allowing organizations to sign up and deploy in minutes. Situational Awareness (SA) provides knowledge of what is happening in the area of operation while gathering intelligence in real time. Their technology works with the Android Team Awareness Kit (ATAK) to provide an SA solution to communicate, push data to others, and see other operators in real time. To put it into layman's terms, it provides you (the user) the ability to see others movements and actions within your group, and provides you with the ability to send data points and chat messages to those people.

Here Mike Nelson, the President of PAR Government, explains the importance of mobile devices to provide crucial situational awareness to various groups and the increased communication and collaboration they are able to achieve with their system. Verne LaClair then walked us through a demonstration of their cutting edge software.

GEOINT 2022 - Tectonix - Mike DiMarco

People have grown to believe that big data is unwieldy, cumbersome, slow. Tectonix believes otherwise. They set out to deliver an unmatched data experience, where rapid response times and intuitive controls combine to yield actionable insights in seconds instead of hours. Traditional data tools are built to take a large data set, accept a narrowly defined query and provide the answer that the user thinks they're looking for. Tectonix sought to take a different approach. Instead, they start with the big picture, allowing their users to whittle down to the answers they seek. In doing so, users discover answers to questions along the way that they would never have thought to ask, generating actionable intelligence that would have otherwise gone undiscovered. Most analytics platforms can help you find a needle in a haystack — but when scaling your lens to start with hundreds of billions of data points becomes not just possible, but PRACTICAL, you'll be able to find every needle in every haystack and see how they all fit together.

Mike DiMarco, with Tectonix, explains their large scale data visualization and how they are able to work with datasets in the hundreds of billions. Their frontend UI allows users to easily interact with the data at the speed of thought. He demonstrates how their scalability creates an environment where analysts can get core insights without having to wait hours.
