  1. National Guard Domestic Mapping Requirements

  2. National Guard • NG is really made up of State NG, which is composed of local units and ultimately local citizens • The Governor of each State, Guam, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands is the Commander in Chief of all Army and Air National Guard units not in active Federal service within his or her jurisdiction

  3. NG Missions • Organized for National Defense (Homeland Defense Mission); Air Defense, Missile Defense, Land warfare (Title 10) • Supports some Federal Homeland Security requirements (CBRN, CIP, in particular) (Title 32) • Supports State requirements for Homeland Security and Disaster Response and Recover missions (e.g. DART) (Title 32 and SAD)

  4. National Guard Bureau Role • NGB has support role; training, equiping, funding, policy/guidance • Geospatial philosophy is to provide capabilities that meet NG State baseline requirements that States can augment/utilize as needed. • Example: Common Operational Picture (COP)

  5. Levels of Requirements • Tactical (boots on the ground) • Field Unit Command (Company/Battalion/Brigade) • Joint Task Force (JTF) • Joint Forces HQ – State (JFHQ-State) • Joint Operations Center (JOC) • National Guard Bureau • Chief NGB • Joint Staff • Joint Coordination Center (JoCC) • Army Guard Domestic Ops Center (DOC) • Air Guard Crisis Action Team (CAT)

  6. Digital Map - beta • eTOPO Quads • National Map Base Data • 8 layers/categories • Formats/Dissemination • Datum, Scales

  7. Authoritative Data Sources • For Common Operational Picture Support • USGS • Earthquakes • Landslides • WaterWatch • National Map Base Data • Wildfires?

  8. Imagery Dissemination • USGS EROS Data Center HDDS/EO Portal – focal point for Disaster Response/Recovery Imagery from various partners • DHS/FEMA creation of Imagery/Remote Sensing Portal?

  9. Utilizing Services • Rehosting extensive base data (elevation, imagery, landuse, transportation networks, etc.) is time consuming and costly • Generally, NG are relying on 3rd parties to provide base data services for web applications, geoMashups, and ArcGIS Explorer • Currently, NGB primarily relies on ESRI and other data providers for base data services • Can USGS fill this information gap for Federal govt. customers? • Greater agility and responsiveness required

  10. Outstanding Issues • Training/Dissemination • NGB cannot yet speak authoritatively about State NG unit/tactical requirements • Need requirements focus group work • Partnering with DSCA partners and USGS
