NV5’s agentic AI platform brings mission-aware automation to the full geospatial workflow, enabling defense and intelligence organizations to make faster, higher-confidence decisions
HOLLYWOOD, Fla., May 5, 2026 – NV5, the world’s leading provider of geospatial software and services, today announced that GeoAgent™, its intelligent geospatial assistant designed to understand customer’s missions, interpret their intent, and automatically build and execute end-to-end workflows, has achieved “Awardable” status through the Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office’s (CDAO) Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace.
The Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace is the premier offering of Tradewinds, the Department of War’s (DoW’s) suite of tools and services designed to accelerate the procurement and adoption of AI/machine learning (ML), data and analytics capabilities.
GeoAgent provides intelligent, mission‑aware AI that automates complex geospatial workflows end‑to‑end, delivering expert‑level insights in minutes so teams can move faster, make better decisions and scale capabilities.
“Defense and Intelligence organizations are inundated with geospatial data spread across an expanding landscape of vendor-locked systems, sensors and tools. GeoAgent directly addresses this challenge by automating GEOINT workflows based on analyst intent, dramatically reducing the latency between data and decision making,” said Nathan Spangler, vice president, BD Federal Government for NV5. “GeoAgent’s availability through the Tradewinds Marketplace accelerates access to this capability across the defense and the intelligence community, ensuring mission partners can move at the speed their operations demand.”
Accelerating Intelligence from Complex Geospatial Data
GeoAgent is built for the speed and complexity of modern defense and intelligence missions. It tackles a core challenge facing these communities: Analyzing and providing insights across vast volumes of geospatial data scattered across incompatible, siloed systems. Today, even straightforward analytic questions can take hours to answer as analysts hunt for data, identify and learn tools, preprocess it, run models manually and validate results—an approach that cannot keep pace with operational tempo.
GeoAgent changes that by automating GEOINT workflows based on intent. Instead of stitching tools together, analysts state mission questions and GeoAgent autonomously discovers relevant data, plans and executes multi-step analytics, adapts to conditions, and publishes mission-ready outputs. GeoAgent operates as an orchestration layer across existing tools and software. It is ecosystem-agnostic, which preserves interoperability and avoids vendor lock-in.
NV5’s video, “NV5 GeoAgent—Agentic AI Platform for Geospatial Intelligence,” accessible by government customers on the Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace, highlights GeoAgent’s capabilities and provides a demonstration of its use in helicopter landing zone analysis as well as change detection. NV5 was recognized among a competitive field of applicants to the Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace whose solutions demonstrated innovation, scalability and potential impact on DoW missions.
