2. Intelligence Integration and the Impact on Communications In order for Intelligence Information to be effective, it must be mainstreamed into current and future Intelligence and C2 Systems Intelligence systems consume enormous quantities of communications bandwidth Intelligence data handling systems are proliferating Large volumes of intelligence information are being increasingly pushed down to the forward edge Intelligence sharing is the future imperative rather than the current exception The trend towards intelligence system integration may mitigate stress on DoD’s communications infrastructure

3. GCCS/BICES/DCGS FMV Integration

4. GCCS/DCGS/BICES FMV Integration Global Command & Control System, Integrated Imagery and Intelligence (GCCS-I3) –Intelligence information analysis system enabling users an immediate access to imagery and intelligence directly from a Common Operational Picture (COP). –GCCS-I3 fuses data from multiple sensors and intelligence sources to enable situational awareness. The system supports the integration of locally collected tactical imagery, live video streams and other intelligence with national and theater - produced intelligence. –GCCS-I3 upgrades to allow for FMV dissemination in the process of being fielded within UK, Afghanistan, and Tampa. Persistent Dissemination and Surveillance System (PSDS2) –Integrates inputs from multiple sources (electro-optical, infrared, radar, acoustic) to provide situational awareness. –Disseminates real-time streaming video –Provides “video in context” for situational awareness on a 3-D terrain model or Google Earth (GE available on US BICES) Common Operational Picture (COP) –FMV able to be stored, archived, and searched via metadata Cross-Domain Enterprise All-Source User Repository (CENTAUR) –US BICES interface to DCGS –Able to search and retrieve releasable intelligence in the form of still imagery and Full Motion Video Clips

5. OUSD/I-managed Intelligence system facilitating US COCOM / Agency interoperability with: –NATO headquarters –Subordinate military commands –All NATO nations –Extending to other COCOMS US BICES provides secure, agile, discrete, selective, and timely intelligence and Special Operations information sharing services with partner nations –One of the most widely used C4I information systems within the US – NATO operations-intelligence community Provides a coalition intelligence sharing enterprise presence in each Combatant Command which can be extended to any partner nation via bilateral networks enabling rapid, secure and effective exchanges of intelligence US Owned Network with 12K U.S. users, 3500 workstations at 200+ sites –Interconnected with 55,000 NATO users in 25 countries Provides access to: –All-Source, US, and NATO derived Intelligence and Operations information –Secure Voice / Video Teleconferencing –Imagery –NRT Feeds –Biometrics –Streaming Video (UAV) United States Battlefield Information Collection and Exploitation Systems (US BICES)

6. Conclusion In order for Intelligence Information to be Effective, it must be Mainstreamed into current and future Intelligence and C2 Systems What can Industry do to help? Exploitation tools People - analysts Integration support Infrastructure support – garrison/deployed Industry is a partner and stands ready to further the development, integration, staffing and sustainment of Intelligence Information
