Meaningful, scalable, and sustainable analytic capacity requires more than math. Advanced analytics to include AI and ML will not mitigate erroneous assumptions, skewed samples, faulty logic, or cognitive bias. Rather, they deliver it at scale, particularly with opaque methods. Traditional “soft skills” like critical thinking, ethics, and problem-solving are emerging as key differentiators between organizations simply chasing the hype of advanced analytics and those realizing the promise in support of novel insight, innovative solutions, and data-informed anticipation and influence. Perhaps, as a result, these so-called “soft skills” are being rebranded as the new “power skills” for the analytics professional. Given their importance to translating data science aspiration into a real, measurable competitive advantage, however, we may want to consider extending the argument and label these as analytic “superpowers” that the successful analytics professional will actively pursue and add to their “utility belt” as another important step in their ongoing professional development and associated maturation of the field.  Join Adam and Darryl as they discuss all of these interesting areas of analytic thinking with Dr. Colleen McCue, PhD.

There is much excitement generated about the advent of new capabilities in space. The recent NASA SpaceX launch seemingly captured the attention of the world. In terms of remote sensing capabilities, it is indeed an exciting time as new and more advanced capabilities are arriving in space at a remarkable pace. With less fanfare, an equally important revolution is taking place on the ground with regard to managing the increasing volumes of data being produced by these new space platforms. The panel features four thought leaders in the field of advanced analytics in a unique gathering of industry luminaries.

This panel will focus on the investor perspective. There’s a number of new, commercial sensors launching this year and the continued rise of commercial analytics. There’s also the collapse of some large constellations and the economic impacts of COVID-19. With these ups and downs, what does the future hold for commercial investment?
