The brief

Project SPOTTER is a high priority Defence requirement that uses computer vision techniques to detect and classify objects of Defence interest within satellite imagery.

This will provide crucial information that will allow Ministry Of Defence (MOD) Imagery Analysts to prioritise imagery for further analysis, and to focus attention on the most important intelligence first.

It therefore offers improved efficiency and timeliness of intelligence reporting by enabling analysts to deliver actionable insights faster.
