Cartography and Geospatial Intelligence (GEOINT): Actionable Knowledge for Human Security - by Max Baber
The document celebrates 50 years of the British Cartographic Society, emphasizing the evolution and significance of geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) as actionable knowledge vital for human security. It outlines GEOINT's processes and applications, including the collection and analysis of spatial data, and highlights its interdisciplinary nature involving various fields such as human geography and cartography. Additionally, it discusses R&D priorities and the importance of critical thinking and spatial reasoning in the GEOINT profession.

- 13. TODAY, TOMORROW AND BEYOND . .. 1963 – 2013 CELEBRATING 50 YEARS OF THE BRITISH CARTOGRAPHIC SOCIETY Defining GEOINT (academic) • Geospatial intelligence is actionable knowledge, a process, and a profession. It is the ability to describe, understand, and interpret so as to anticipate the human impact of an event or action within a spatiotemporal environment. It is also the ability to identify, collect, store, and manipulate data to create geospatial knowledge through critical thinking, geospatial reasoning, and analytical techniques. Finally, it is the ability to present knowledge in a way that is appropriate to the decision-making environment. – Todd Bacastow & Dennis Bellafiore American Intelligence Journal (2009)
