Common Imagery Ground / Surface Systems
Abstract
Program management consists of four ACAT III efforts: GEOINT Transformation, SIGINT Transformation, Multi-INT Infrastructure, and Network Infrastructure Transformation. 1. GEOINT Transformation: Rapidly integrates new and updated GEOINT capabilities (GOTS/COTS and custom software), enables quick/seamless integration of new sensors, data types, sensor planning, and command and control (C2) capabilities into the open architecture framework. Leverages mission partner methods and tools to the maximum extent possible. 2. SIGINT Transformation: Rapidly integrates new and updated SIGINT capabilities (COTS/GOTS/Custom s/w), enables quick/seamless integration of new sensors, data types, sensor planning, command and control (C2) capabilities into the open architecture framework. Leverages mission partner methods and tools to the maximum extent possible. 3. Multi-INT Transformation: Rapidly integrates new and updated enterprise applications (COTS/GOTS/Custom s/w), to include voice and chat communications, collaboration and situational awareness, multi-INT fusion, and data analytics capabilities (to include Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning AI/ML, Automation, and Augmentation (AAA)). Also includes Intelligent Modeling and Predictive Analysis of Cyberspace Targeting (IMPACT) program, which develops concepts, Tactics/Techniques/Procedures (TTPs) and technologies for synchronizing ISR and non-kinetic capabilities. Rapidly integrates new and updated data exchange and interoperability capabilities in support of USD(I)'s Common Data Fabric (CDF) Initiative. Addresses program office test and evaluation activities 4. Network Infrastructure Transformation: Continue to update the AF DCGS infrastructure to a cyber-resilient, open, scalable, commercial-based, architecture, improving data ingest, transfer, and storage capabilities, collaboration, and content driven discovery. AF DCGS operates in a hybrid cloud environment, consisting of on Open Architecture (OA) DCGS Platform as a Service, on-premise/private cloud portion and Virtual ISR Integrations Enclave (VI2E) unclassified, Secret and Top Secret environment as the commercial/public cloud portion. Network infrastructure transformation also handles integration of additional line of site capabilities. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver AF DCGS weapon system capability. The use of such programs funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605831F, 0605832F, 0605833F, 0605898F, and 0606398F. In FY21, $0.000M was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element, and in FY22, $0.800M is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this program element. This program is in Budget Activity 7, Operational System Development because this budget activity includes development efforts to upgrade systems that have been fielded or have received approval for full rate production and anticipate production funding in the current or subsequent fiscal year.
