AIR FORCE CHIEF: It’ll Be ‘Years’ Before We Catch Up on Drone Data.

The Air Force has more drones and more sensors collecting more data than it has humans to interpret what the electronic tea leaves say. The glut of all that video and still imagery is “unsustainable,” says the Air Force’s top civilian — but it’ll be “years” before the Air Force digs its way out of it. (Spoiler: The solution is automating the cameras [emphasis added].)

I find this somewhat amusing in that the problem is exactly the same as it was when I was working the field back in the mid-1980s. While we've made phenomenal strides in analysis, we've made even more phenomenal strides in data capture, and as a result are even farther back than we were in the mid-80s.
