Joint Data Integration
Abstract
Primary OUTCOME (objective) for this effort is an improved information and data management process that enhances the Joint Task Force Commander's situational awareness, decision cycle, and builds a picture that the CJTF can use and trust. The Joint Data Integration (JDI) operational concept, endorsed by USPACOM's fully deployable joint warfighting staff (JTF 519) and based upon OIF/OEF lessons learned, directly addresses the challenges of data management in the JTF HQ C2 Joint Mission Thread. The concept of JDI is to combine the data contained within intelligence, data link, ground data, and sensor networks to produce an accurate, timely, complete and unambiguous Common Tactical Picture (CTP) for JTF use and for sharing with Functional Component Commanders. This common tactical picture becomes the basis for the CJTF's input to the COCOM's Common Operational Picture (COP), which is distributed via GCCS to supported/supporting commands and higher authority for shared situational awareness. The primary outputs and efficiencies to be realized are: 1) Improved quality of the common tactical picture in order to enhance Joint Task Force Headquarters Command and Control capabilities; 2) Increased standardization of data management tasks in current GCCS Family of Systems and future C2 systems; 3) Improved/increased automation requirements across future C2 systems; and 4) Reduced commander's decision cycle through accelerated processes, as a result of an increase in the commander's overall situational awareness.
