Sustainable, Affordable Support to Stressed Populations

STAR-TIDES is an international, information-sharing research project that promotes sustainable, affordable support to stressed populations—post-disaster, impoverished, or post-war in a domestic or foreign context for short- or long-term operations, with or without military involvement. It is an international research project to promote unity of effort among diverse organizations where there is no unity of control. As such it seeks to build bridges across boundaries between business, civil society and government stakeholders who are working toward common goals.

Conference Participation

STAR-TIDES participated in the AFCEA (Armed Forces Communications Electronics Association) Joint Warfighting conference in Virginia Beach from May 12-14th. The display included representatives from each of the infrastructure sets (photos posted separately), and introduced new concepts for rapidly accessible situational awareness, including precision imagery support to agriculture, that could have significant value to stressed populations.
