Large Data
Abstract
The Joint Requirements Oversight Council (JROC) validated the capability need for Large Data in FY 2006. The outcome of Large Data demonstrated the military utility of a highly scalable, rapid, and secure integrated capability to retrieve, store and share massive amounts of information effectively between globally distributed users. It provides increased situational awareness by displaying large, fused sets of geospatially-referenced data in a Joint Warfighting context using intuitive user dataset navigation techniques. The primary outputs and efficiencies demonstrated in the JCTD Military Utility Assessment (JMUA) are: 1) Synchronization of databases across all major operational storage nodes, i.e. cache coherency; 2) Timely delivery and sharing of data - instant real time access and collaboration; 3) Intuitive ways for users to navigate large (petabytes to exabytes) data sets; 4) Ability to easily visualize huge amounts of data generated; 5) Capability to perform "trackback" or change analysis on an unprecedented scale. The sponsor was U. S. Strategic Command. The lead agencies were the National Geospatial Agency (NGA) and Defense Systems Agency (DISA). Transition in FY 2009 to National Geospatial Agency (NGA) and Defense Systems Agency (DISA).
