Large Data

Abstract

The JROC validated the capability need for Large Data in FY 2006. Large Data demonstrated the military utility of a highly scalable, rapid, and secure integrated capability to retrieve, store and share massive amounts of information effectively between globally distributed users. It provides increased situational awareness by displaying large, fused sets of geospatially-referenced data in a Joint Warfighting context using intuitive user data set navigation techniques. The primary outputs and efficiencies were: 1) Synchronization of databases across all major operational storage nodes, i.e. cache coherency; 2) Timely delivery and sharing of data - instant real time access and collaboration; 3) Intuitive ways for users to navigate large (petabytes to exabytes) data sets; 4) Ability to easily visualize huge amounts of data generated; 5) Capability to perform "trackback" or change analysis on an unprecedented scale. The sponsor was U. S. Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM). The lead agencies were the National Geospatial Agency (NGA) and Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA). Transition occurred in FY 2009 to NGA and DISA.
