EMSolutions EBODSS Presentation Accepted for Small UAS Symposium!
EMSolutions is proud to announce that we have been selected to present at The Small Unmanned Aerial Systems (SUAS) Symposium. The SUAS Symposium is focused on the Small UAS community to understand the impact of existing and new technologies and concepts of operation for both Joint Warfighting and Homeland Security. EMSolutions will be presenting a brief on EBODSS (Effects Based Operations Decision Support Services) capabilities and lessons learned at the SUAS Symposium.
EMSolutions is co-developing EBODSS for the Army as a decision aid. EBODSS can produce a Reconnaissance, Surveillance, and Target Acquisition (RSTA) mission plan that takes into account the battlefield and the strengths and weaknesses of the available sensor platforms, types and modalities. The EBODSS software application deals with both UAS and Unmanned Ground Systems (UGS), provides high-level “macro-planning” through expert system heuristics, and aids UAS route planning.

EMSolutions Joins ISR Technology Consortium (ISRTC) as Founding Member!
EMSolutions is proud to announce that membership in the Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance Technology Consortium (ISRTC) was unanimously approved by the ISRTC Steering Committee. EMSolutions is joining the ISRTC as a founding member and will contribute as a traditional, small-business providing defense-related contract services to the US Government. EMSolutions looks forward to providing our robust expertise and capabilities to the ISRTC and to the US Government.
The ISRTC is the result of a request by the Office of the Secretary of Defense ISR Task Force to form a collaboration of members from small and large businesses, for-profit and not-for-profit entities, and academic organizations. The ISRTC is working with the Army to enter into an Other Transactions Agreement (OTA) in order to achieve the following goals:
- To develop Long Endurance Multi-Intelligence Vehicle (LEMV) and supporting ISR technologies that advance the state-of-the-art
- To improve US industry, government and academia capabilities to sustain US military supremacy in the research, development, engineering and production of ISR systems
- To insert these technologies into legacy and developmental platforms as quickly and efficiently as possible
Once an OTA with the Army is reached, the intent is that ISRTC members would be able to propose and perform research, development and engineering activities. ISRTC members may also establish collaborative research efforts to gain further knowledge and understanding of LEMV and ISR technologies.
