Abstract
In support of Combatant Commands’ (CCMD) focus on Denied, Degraded, Intermittent, and Limited (DDIL) communications environments, U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM), in partnership with the National Geo-Spatial Intelligence Agency (NGA), has begun a series of experiments focused on the delivery of geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) and intelligence products from the continental U.S. (CONUS), through regional and sub-regional, and down to the tactical operations layer. In FY 2023, as part of USINDOPACOM’s DDIL exercise series, NGA collaborated with USINDOPACOM Joint Staff and two theater units to deploy two small form factor hardware sets and one capability subject matter expert to two continents and began the iterative process of identifying mission requirements and capability gaps. Additionally, one theater-level GEOINT asset was deployed outside CONUS in support of inter-theater nodal data dissemination strategy.
