Single Integrated Air Picture (SIAP)

Abstract

The Single Integrated Air Picture (SIAP) was a Joint Requirements Oversight Council (JROC) validated collaborative enterprise Special Interest Program, comprising multiple engineering and acquisition programs in each of the services, all linked by a joint engineering and development organization. The product of fused data from multiple sensors - a "System of System" (SoS) that provides unambiguous, actionable tracks of all airborne objects in a surveillance volume. All airborne objects of interest must be detected, tracked, and reported. Every object must have one and only one track and set of identified characteristics. Weapon systems from each Service must see and act on the same track data consistently. The Army and Navy, with the help of the other services and MDA, are to harvest any usable components/capabilities from the IABM to aid in the development of a Joint Track Manager (JTM) for use in their weapon systems. The core set of SIAP SoS requirements are outlined in the SIAP Capabilities Development Document (CDD) generated by the US Joint Forces Command and validated by the JROC in Sep 2007. The SIAP CDD requirements will be achieved through the development and implementation of the SIAP SoS. The Air Force is applying expertise in various AF program offices to assist with defining the JTM functionality, the required SIAP architecture, the definition of JTM, and the integration methodology for AF weapon systems and the airborne network. Project 5232 funds AF specific JTM related engineering efforts including AF staff that works directly with the Joint SIAP Program Executive Office (JPEO) to help define and develop the functional content of the JTM. The Army and Navy, with the help from the other services and MDA, will conduct a JTM Demonstration to illustrate the results of their work. These activities are in Budget Activity 5 (System Development and Demonstration) because they support development, integration solutions, fielding, operational support activities, and special projects.
