Integrated Air Surveillance Concept of Operations

Abstract

In December 2008, participants at the Interagency Surveillance Summit, hosted by the Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security, requested development of an Integrated Air Surveillance Concept of Operations (IS ConOps) drawn from existing ConOps-related documents, an initial Integrated Surveillance Enterprise Architecture (ISEA) and a governance recommendation. The Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) Joint Planning and Development Office (JPDO) was tasked to prepare those products. In July 2010, the JPDO's oversight body, the Senior Policy Committee (SPC), directed that the recommended governance mechanism and work plan be put into action and that the IS ConOps be updated with the specific intent of resolving the outstanding issues that had prevented total concurrence in draft version 3.0. This update to the IS ConOps identifies shared requirements for joint capabilities and changes needed to effect a transition from today's evolving collaborative environments to a fully and deliberately integrated, interagency air surveillance "system of systems."
