Unified Data Library (UDL)

Abstract

The Space Data Fusion effort develops the UDL to support integration, exploitation and delivery of Space Domain Awareness (SDA) data sources for C2 and battle management of space forces. It focuses on enabling data sharing, establishing the data architecture required to aggregate multi-sensor data for broader use at different clearance levels, transforming any-source data into normalized, usable information via data exploitation tools, followed by data hand off to Battle Management Command and Control mission systems to support actual space operations. Space Data Fusion/UDL efforts include purchasing commercial SDA data and services in support of US Space Command (USSPACECOM) operations. This program is complementary and performed in parallel with program PE 1206425SF, Space Situational Awareness Systems, which develops new network sensors and improved information integration capabilities across the network. Space acquisition must respond with speed and agility to emerging adversary threats. Space Systems Center (SSC) has transformed the organization and implementation of space acquisition to an enterprise approach, to increase innovation and resiliency, leveraging international, commercial, and mission partnerships, and managing program/project priorities according to an integrated unclassified/classified enterprise space architecture. Expanding the appropriate acquisition authorities and contract mechanisms to deliver capability sooner, SSC will strategically execute experimentation, prototyping, risk reduction, and other efforts to develop new or repurpose existing capabilities. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver UDL for weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program elements 1206392SF and 1206398SF. In PY $0 was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element, and in CY $0 is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this program element.
