6. 6 FBO Top Priorities 1. Data Strategy
Develop and implement a data acquisition strategy.
Develop and standardize metadata.
Develop processes and standards to incorporate customer value-added data.
Develop and implement a metrics program to measure the quality of data holdings, rate of improvement, and rate of data growth.
Develop and implement an NGA production and maintenance strategy.
3. Develop and implement the technology to enable a single query that results in a comprehensive view of NGA and NSG GEOINT holdings
4. Technology Insertion - Rapid tech insertion process based on customer info needs and capability shortfalls
5. Requirements Satisfaction
Single production management tool
Single information-based process
Metrics program for production & analysis

7. 7 A capstone document to provide the NSG Governing Authority
How NSG manages GEOINT data
“What” components align with the ODNI Enterprise Architecture and DoD Directive 8320.02
Defines GEOINT data types and associated processes
Data Requirements
Data Collection
Data Analysis
Data Production
Data Storage
Data Dissemination
Quality Assurance A capstone document to provide the NGA Governing Authority on how NGA, and the NSG, should manage GEOINT data ~
Defines the “What” component of this Governing Authority
alings with the ODNI Enterprise Architecture and
DoD Directive 8320.02
Provides a corporate plan and governance mechanism to define GEOINT data types and the associated processes to execute:
Data Requirements; Data Collection; Data Analysis, Data Production; Data Storage and Data Dissemination; and GEOINT Quality Assurance.
We strive
to evolve into a Geocentric Enterprise, transcending all of our infrastructure and business
processes, while continually enhancing our GEOINT capabilities that will provide for the needs
of our partners.

9. 9 NGA Geospatial Data Strategy
Focus on development of the NGA Geospatial Data Production Plan NGA Geospatial Data Strategy
- Foundation Data to include our Geospatial Data Domains and Processes
- Focus of the S2 FY 08 work, lead by SLM, evolved into the development of the NGA Geospatial Data Production Plan
? NGA GEOINT Data Strategy
- Grassroots development, lead by S2, intended to provide a holistic
document that addresses all GEOINT data management areas.
- 150 + personnel contributed to Strategy to date
(S2, S3, SG, SN, SR, SL, OCIO, PV, PJP, JPAS, JOIO, FCS,
UGO, OMW, SOZ, A, EN, JFCOM)
? NSG GEOINT Data Strategy
- To be vetted to the NSG for comment
The GEOINT Data Strategy is Draft and we welcome your comments
