• Aries Ingeniería y Sistemas and Global Freedom presented advanced operational visual intelligence training solutions specially designed for ISR and UAS.


• The training solutions provided by Aries Ingeniería and Global Freedom incorporates the latest and most advanced training tools with state-of-the-art computer training ads.

Madrid, September 19, 2011 - Working together since 2010, Aries Ingeniería y Sistemas and Global Freedom have established a wide range of training products and services. Rising to the challenge of increasing demand, the companies have the combined knowledge and experience to develop tailor-made training solutions for defence and homeland security customers, as demonstrated by their recent contact with the Spanish Armed Forces.

In May 2011, Aries Ingeniería y Sistemas hosted Global Freedom to provide an intensive week of lectures and demonstrations for personnel of the Spanish Ministry of Defence, the Armed Forces, and the Civil Guard.

Basic training provided by manufacturers for the use of UAV and ISR payloads can be found in the market, however advanced and professional interpretation and ISR abilities, such as Full Motion Video (FMV) skills, necessitate more advanced training. Aries Ingeniería y Sistemas and Global Freedom are aware of this growing demand.

Training solutions offered by Global Freedom and Aries Ingeniería y Sistemas include the latest training methodologies supported by the most advanced computer based training aids, like the unique SCOUT system developed by Global Freedom. The SCOUT system includes interactive lessons, pin-point exercises, advanced 3D simulations, and full editing and managing capabilities. These training tools are designed for ISR aircraft and payload operators, image intelligence analysts and consumers, as well as for field and HQ commanders. They are quickly customised to multiple kinds of ISR platforms (satellites, piloted aircrafts, unmanned aerial vehicles); to various ISR payloads (still imagery, full motion video, electro-optical, infrared, synthetic aperture radar); to specific missions (C-IED, convoy escorting, threat detection, anti-piracy, counter-insurgency, etc.); and to any kind of scenario (coastal, open water, open ground, urban).

These training programmes and solutions allow for dramatic increases in operational and mission skills with clear and immediate feedback for users. By reducing the need for actual training flights, an investment in Aries Ingeniería y Sistemas and Global Freedom’s training solutions cuts costs for defence budgets, directly affecting the force protection of deployed troops and the execution of ISR/UAS missions.
