US Army, Pacific Theater Geospatial Database: A Model for Synergistic Geospatial Intelligence

Overview As the U.S. Pacific Command's Executive Agent for all Pacific Theater terrain analysis and geospatial production, U.S. Army, Pacific has established a Pacific Theater Geospatial Database (TGD). A collaborative effort with U.S. Army, Europe, SAIC, and ESRI, the TGD provides a unique geospatial data production, archive, and storage capability at a resolution not currently offered by any other Department of Defense system or agency. The TGD addresses key Homeland Security intelligence analysis requirements by consolidating and disseminating extensive Pacific Theater-unique digital geospatial data and products under a unified data model. In addition, the TGD allows intelligence analysts, planners, and operators to integrate seemingly disparate data to aid in pattern recognition, modeling, and visualization of the battle space.
