Information Interoperability for Coalition Operations - Status and Prospects

Abstract

The need for information interoperability across coalitions is unchallenged, but how it is achieved, remains an open question. To examine this issue further the IST Panel supported a Task Group on the topic title to examine this issue, and to make recommendations on potential ways forward. The Group examined two related 'threads' in information interoperability - information exchange architectures and ontologies. Both relate to extant work within NATO on data modelling, and on the NATO Technical Architecture. In this paper key issues within each of these two threads are described and outstanding issues are presented.
