Community of Interest (COI)
Information Brief to COI Forum
Mr. John Holmes
Chair, Data Management Working Group
14 July 2010

2. C-IED COI Background
“Joint IED Defeat Information Sharing WG Report” 30 Aug 2006 (ASD/NII)
Key recommendation was for JIEDDO, as the OPR, to implement the DoD Net-Centric Data Strategy
“Report-Out from Counter-IED Information Sharing Tiger Team Effort” 22 Feb 2007 (DNI/CIO)
Findings reinforced recommendation to implement DoD’s Net-Centric Data Strategy
C-IED COI formed in June 2007
Enabling DOD, Interagency, and Multinational Information Sharing within the C-IED community

3. C-IED COI Stakeholders

4. C-IED COI Goals and Objectives

5. Current Leadership Commitment
We must find ways to share more information with our multi-national coalition partners. This has to be one of our top priorities.
LTG Oates Multi-National Information Sharing priority – Afghan Trip Report dated February, 2010

6. Prior Leadership Commitment
Gen. Metz has been the primary senior officer advocating Information Sharing since summer 2004

7. Federal Leadership Commitment
“Accelerate information technology enhancements, to include knowledge discovery, database integration, cross-database searches, and the ability to correlate biographic information with terrorism-related intelligence.” President Obama Memorandum dated January 7, 2010
Christmas Day Bomber Event caused the President to speak out on Information Visibility

8. C-IED COI Information Sharing Strategy

9. C-IED COI Data Strategy
Implementing the DoD Net-Centric Data Strategy
Becoming Dynamically Discoverable using NCES
DoD Discovery Metadata Specification (DDMS)
Discovery Patterns
Interagency Information Sharing Initiative
Universal CORE (UCORE)
Weapons Technical Intelligence (WTI) Improvised Explosive Device (IED) Lexicon
Technical Standards
Collaborating on the maturation of core services such as the Content Discovery and Retrieval Specification 9

10. Weapons Technical Intelligence (WTI)
Improvised Explosive Device (IED) Lexicon
Produced by WTI Integrated Product Team (IPT)
Interagency technical advisory forum commissioned by the Directors of JIEDDO and the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA).
Developed by Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) from the DoD, DOJ, DHS, IC and allied nations.
Provides conceptual framework and operational vocabulary addressing the IED threat worldwide.
Improves the collection, reporting, and exploitation of WTI IED information at the tactical, operational, and strategic levels.
Available July 2010.

11. IED Extension of DDMS An IED extension of DDMS to support Discovery:
Allows unique fields in databases to be mapped to the common standard
Enables federated search and discovery
The DMWG has established an IED extention of DDMS for IED-related databases based on the WTI IED Lexicon
Types of databases implementing the standard:
Significant Activity Reporting (CIDNE)
Includes ISAF CIDNE (Coalition)
Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) reporting
Includes JDIGS/Navy and EODIMS/USAF
Intelligence IED Database (Harmony/NGIC)
TTP’s of Terrorist IED Use (TRIPwire/DHS)
Arson and Explosive Incidents (BATS/ATF)
Forensic Analysis Reports (EXPeRT/FBI)
Each database must map its fields relating to data in the metadata standard so that they can be searched by customers

12. Directly Extend from UCore
Direct usage of the WTI IED Lexicon
Supports the ASD(NII)/DoD CIO M
C-IED COI
Data Strategy
Seamless interoperability between joint, coalition, interagency and non-government mission partners

13. C-IED Reporting: …foxhole to the White House “Visibility”

14. Data Architecture Overview
C-IED Users discover content & services through the NCES Enterprise Search
Discovery metadata with WTI IED Lexicon content is present on the Enterprise Catalog
Federated Search includes Enterprise, COI and POR data sources
C-IED Web services authenticate unanticipated C-IED users credentials with PKI (future)
Users receive content based on their authorized access for the information (current)
C-IED Web services produce information resources in a variety of Internet Media Types including XML and images (future)
