  1. eGEOINT – enabling GEOINT a SOA journey Geospatial Line of Business Seminar US Department of Transportation Gregory Black Director, eGEOINT Management Office

  2. Agenda • Purpose • Vision • Approach • Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) & Governance • Summary • Opportunities for Partnership

  3. Purpose • Demonstrate NGA’s commitment to: • Improve NGA’s Warfighter support, information sharing, collaboration, and faster capability delivery • Fulfilling evolving and expanding needs for GEOINT • Maintaining NGA’s position as GEOINT provider of choice across DoD and the Intelligence Community • Assuring implementations, and business practices are consistent with national and community strategies Mission enhancing GEOINT Visualization & Access services available Spring 2007

  4. Vision - eGEOINT - What • To satisfy the mission needs of its partners, the vision for NGA includes being the premier online, on-demand geospatial data, information and knowledge service provider. • This service should provide global access to seamless content, related products and access to experts - whether from NGA or from its business counterparts around the world. • requires a new business perspective. • is more than a technology shift for NGA. • Benefits: • User focused - internally and externally • Accelerates time to knowledge for all analysts and end users • Geospatially enables data and decision-making • Provides a GEOINT foundation for the NSG As a combat support agency, NGA’s aim should be to increase our partners’ capacity for independent action.

  5. NSG Common Challenges • Fundamental missions • Multi-INT, Multi-Source, collaboration, Coalition Interoperability • Increased demand for GEOINT by both traditional and non-traditional customers, e.g. Katrina, GWOT, etc. • Many Stakeholders – Many Cultures • Continued Exposure of existing resources and Datastores • Harmonization of Metadata content, structure, ontology, registries and standards • Harmonize Community Efforts – “Co-evolution” • Network centric architectures, standards, components, CONOPS, mission systems, organizations, governance, business practices, etc. • Coordinated data strategy and standards implementation across DoD/IC Public Release case # 06-231B

  6. Enabling People Process Technology GEOINT e Transformation Data eGEOINT Approach • Process • ID policy hurdles • Demonstrate new • business model • Educate • Key Partnerships • Early engagement • Use of pilot • Learn by doing • Link partners • Scenarios • Demonstrate Value • Link partners • Process change • Technical • Initiatives • Demonstrate Value • Fill gaps

  7. Imagery VOs Terrain Aero SOA Infrastructure Topo Marine GeoCode Other Transforming Discovery and Access through SOA/Web Services • Data Management & Delivery • DISA Content Discovery & Delivery • Access • GEOINT Web Services (OGC) • Enterprise ArcSDE • Application ready data • Enterprise ArcIMS • Top Drawer (‘non-standard data’) • SOA Infrastructure • Registry, ESB, Monitoring • GEOINT Visualization • 3d = Google Earth, ESRI AGX • 2d = NGA Palanterra, NGA Earth • Other clients via OGC Web Service interfaces Self-Service Assisted Service Full-Service Two Networks 1000’s of Users Spring 2007 Incremental Growth of Capabilities

  8. Early Adaptors of Visualization Tools • Users • EUCOM, TRANSCOM, STRATCOM, SOUTHCOM, PACOM, NORTHCOM, ONI, Homeland Security, Secret Service, FBI, Health & Human Services, CIFA, DHS, DTRA, NOAA, USCG, MAD, AFWA, NSA, DIA and NGA • Uses • Situational Awareness • Information Sharing • Data Aggregation • Force Protection • Mission Planning and Rehearsal • Incident tracking

  9. Opportunities for Partnership • Partner with NGA to identify benefits and implications to your operations • Use the GEOINT Visualization Pilot • Examine your local environment and policies • Client loads, Firewall policies, Data enablement • Apply a SOA model to your operations & plans • provide and consume services in a net-centric environment • Learn by doing

  10. Summary/ Discussion • NSG SOA is a foundation for Mission Success • Increased agility to connect Sensors, Decision-makers, Shooters through NetCentricity • Net Centricity through Service Orientation • Focus on data/information and services • Standards are still critically important • eGEOINT program and influence moving forward • Significant near-term adjustments already affected • Requires continued focus to affect culture change • Must continue to push execution processes • Must unify objectives and governance Approved for public release NGA # 07-102
