Distributed Common Ground Sys

Abstract

The Distributed Common Ground System - Navy (DCGS-N) is the Navy's portion of the Department of Defense (DOD) DCGS effort. DOD has defined a DCGS architecture that will be verifiably compatible and interoperable across all of the services' Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) systems and operations. The DOD DCGS will process data from all ISR collection assets, intelligence databases and intelligence producers. This collected data will be shared across a joint enterprise using the DCGS Integration Backbone (DIB) to enhance interoperability of ISR information across joint forces through the use of common enterprise standards and services. It will support Joint Task Force (JTF)-level combat operations and support JTF commanders and below with critical intelligence for battle management and information dominance across the full spectrum of operations. DCGS is a cooperative effort among the services, agencies, and DOD to provide systems capable of receiving, processing, exploiting, and disseminating data from airborne and national reconnaissance platforms. DCGS is further subdivided into systems which process, exploit, and disseminate Measurements Analysis and Signatures Intelligence data, Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) data, Multi-Intelligence Reconnaissance data, and Imagery data.
