DESCRIPTION
This is the presentation I did last week at the USGIF Technology Day event. The presentation was in the Ignite format and talked about how to model human behavior like hurricanes and weather patterns to help build and calibrate a predictive model of where events will happen and what other impacts they will have on neighboring geographies.

•highly complex variables•data fidelity & currency•rate of change accelerates
unevenly•business models
(monetization)•big data (25 zettabytes by

obstacles to success
•open vs. proprietary vs. interoperability
•enterprise vs. SaaS vs. hybrids•mobile devices as producer &
consumer •data disparity across geographies•UX is everything...
obstacles to success
did i mention big, big data
the solution
chaos theory + data + math + GEOINT + internet + UX
