|
Panel Session I: Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs) |
|
Autonomous capabilities have the potential to advance rapidly and the evolution of remotely operated underwater vehicles (ROVs) and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), which can operate independently of direct human input, has become an important capability in maritime security domain. UUVs span across many applications to include commercial, exploration, defense and scientific research and provide the Global Maritime Community of Interest (GMCOI) with the ability to provide persistent maritime surveillance across a variety of missions. |
|
Panel Session II: The Emergence of Space-Based Capabilities for Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) |
|
The increasing role of space in the maritime domain and the latest technological advancements in space-based capabilities to enhance MDA offers opportunities to provide constant surveillance of maritime assets. |
|
Panel Session III: Securing Unmanned Autonomous Systems from Cyber Threats |
|
Emerging capabilities of unmanned autonomous systems span air, ground and undersea domains, but rapid advancement can increase the difficulty of securing network communication while also increasing the GMCOI’s ability to share information. |
|
Panel Session IV: Integrated Policy & Technology Issues |
|
Enhancing situational awareness of vulnerabilities, threats and consequences to the maritime domain is vital, but the lack of agreed upon policies on development, deployment and use is slowing the ability to field promising emerging technologies beyond R&D. |
|
Panel Session V: Technology Innovation & Trust-based Information Sharing in Support of MDA |
|
Exploring trust-based information sharing as a key element in future strategies for comprehensive MDA. The U.S. and its partners are addressing challenges faced in the maritime domain through enhanced information sharing capabilities, but with these enhancements come significant policy, legal and operational issues to be addressed. |

Seattle recently opened a new light rail link from the airport to UW's Husky Stadium, with many stops in between. This will enable you to enjoy Seattle's night life, should you choose to after the meetings, while avoiding downtown's hefty parking fees. |
|
The King County Metro Bus system is also still available for travel to places the light rail may not take you. |
