Information Systems (ACD&P)
Abstract
This Project provides for Advanced Component Development and Prototypes (ACD&P) responsible for providing the information architecture and applications for shaping the battlespace against the Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) threat. Experimentation and demonstration will be used in this phase to reduce risk and inform supporting materiel solutions, CONOPS and TTPs. Efforts included in this project are: (1) Global Biosurveillance Portal (Global-BSP), (2) CBRN Integrated Early Warning (CBRN IEW), (3) Joint Effects Model 2 (JEM 2), (4) Joint Warning and Reporting Network 2 (JWARN 2), and (5) Software Support Activity (SSA). The Global-BSP is an unclassified, web-based computer and mobile application which facilitates collaboration, communication, and information sharing in support of the preparedness, detection, management, and mitigation of CBRN, as well as all hazard events. These capabilities enable the use of data visualization, real-time messaging and file sharing, and DoD and USG cooperation to expedite the timely identification and detection of CBRN events in order to minimize operational impacts to the local and global populations. CBRN IEW is a continuation of ECD IEW (CBRN IEW has transitioned from Project Contamination Avoidance (CA4) to Project Information Systems (IS4)). CBRN IEW will utilize residual capabilities from the Capabilities to Enable NBC Threat Awareness Understanding and Reporting (CENTAUR) deployed to Eighth Army as well as ECD IEW lessons learned to transition and integrate successful mature technologies into a baseline IEW framework to support environmental monitoring and biological surveillance to support immediate force health protection requirements. Applicable technologies within the CBDP will be experimented, integrated, networked, and deployed through rapid acquisition methods and transitioned to programs of record to achieve integrated early warning in accordance with OSD IEW Campaign Plan. CBRN IEW will utilize Table-Top exercises (TTX), Operational Demonstrations, and other venues to provide sensor interoperability and interdependence and integrated layered defense in order to increase readiness within the CBDP. The JEM 2 is a software application that provides the Department of Defense (DoD) with the only operationally tested and accredited tool to model and simulate the effects of CBRN weapon strikes and incidents. JEM 2 applies advanced physics using weather, terrain, and agent characteristics to predict the time-phased impact of CBRN and Toxic Industrial Chemical/Material (TIC/TIM). JEM 2 displays hazard information on the Common Operational Picture (COP) and allows commanders to assess risk and take steps to mitigate the effects of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) on operational forces. The JWARN 2 is a software application that provides the DoD with a warning and reporting system that enables an immediate and integrated response to threats of contamination by WMD, CBRN, and TIM incidents. JWARN 2 provides a digital display of CBRN reports on the COP, presented through Service-provided Command and Control systems resident at all echelons of command. Enhanced situational battlespace awareness provides Commanders the ability to support warfighter battle management and continuity of operations in a contaminated environment. The SSA provides for enterprise services in the areas of software development, system/network architectures, cybersecurity, technology transition, and information assurance standards and policies to support programs in the evaluation of emerging technologies for transition, standards compliance, interoperability, and cybersecurity risk management framework development.
