Understanding Troop Readiness in the time of a Flood Event JOINT COMBINED STATE STRATEGIC PLAN (JCSSP) Christina McCullough JFHQ-IN-J March 2007

Why JCSSP? “…shift the basis of defense planning from a ‘threat- based’ model that has dominated thinking in the past to a ‘capabilities-based’ model for the future. This capabilities-based model focuses more on how an adversary might fight rather than specifically whom the adversary might be or where a war might occur.” - Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld “If we are called upon today for assistance, what are we postured to do?” - Unknown

Why JCSSP ? Sept 11, 2001 Tool that would give decision makers what forces were available for the homeland defense and civil support missions and also monitor and ensure the reality of the Chief, NGB’s commitment. –50% of their NG forces available for homeland defense/security and domestic emergencies –25% in training for future deployments –25% actually deployed

JCSSP Elements Joint Combined State Strategic Plan (JCSSP) –Tool designed to discern available forces Joint Capabilities Database (JCD) –10 Core Capabilities - Aviation, CBRNE, C2 (Command and Control), Communications, Engineer, Logistics, Maintenance, Medical, Security, and Transportation. State Awareness Enhancement Initiatives (SAEI) – situational awareness for Defense Support to Civil Authorities. i.e. flood

Why GIS? “GIS is the best way to visually represent the data of an operation. It allows you to see all of the assets deployed and the events and how they are spatially arrayed with all of the critical infrastructure data in the area of operation.” – MAJ Charlie Cobb, NGB J-3, “GIS is a very effective tool in incident management, the detailed data layers allow the leadership the ability to plan upon the ever changing conditions to maximize resources and efforts.” - 1LT Joseph Singler, J2-3

Why GIS? National Guard Bureau One Stop Geographic Visualization for the Governor Tool that would give decision makers a geographic visualization of the available forces for the homeland defense and civil support missions and also monitor and ensure the reality of the Chief, NGB’s commitment. Web mapping service – eliminates the stovepipe

JCSSP JOINT COMBINED STATE STRATEGIC PLAN This map depicts unit readiness within each Indiana Department of Homeland Security (IDHS) region to respond to an emergency. Black units represents the 9400 Indiana National Guard soldiers deployed OCONUS. This map is updated quarterly and reported to the National Guard Bureau (NGB).

SAEI State Awareness Enhancement Initiatives This map provides troop readiness to support emergencies within the state. Our state OPLAN includes man-made and natural disasters, such as civil disturbance, flooding, winter storms, earthquakes, tornados, and WMD.

Database Development Strategic & Operational capabilities Air National Guard, Army National Guard for a flood event. –Unit Locations –Unit readiness for flood –Unit Capabilities What equipment do they have? What personnel do they have? What are their skill sets?

Data Layer Development Objectives SAEI Data Preservation / Requirements –Joint Unit Information by Unit Id Code (UIC) –Flood capabilities

SAEI JCSSP DATA DEVELOPMENT SAEI JFHQ-IN.shp ASIP – ARNG DATA UMIS – ANG DATA ASIP NGonly: table Query: UICCC, STACO, INSNO export to ngonly.dbf ANG_INSTALLATIONS.shp Add datalayer, select all that reside in IN county layer, export to ANG_Installations_IN.shp. Edit for missing JFHQ locations. Merge: ANG and ARNG shape files. The DODCMD_ID variable contains ARG & ARNG data in one column. ARNG_ANG_IN.shp cddocins_for_in.shp ANG_Installations_IN SAEIFLOOD.DBF NGonly.dbf Copy and paste the ANG UICCC text from the SAEI database in the bottom of the table. You will have to manually add the INSNO information. Join SAEI to NGonly.dbf by the UICCC code. Keep all records. There will be 226 for IN. Export to: Add datalayer, select all that reside in IN county layer, export to ANG_Installations_IN.shp. Edit for missing JFHQ location. MAJOR_MILITARY_COMMAND.shp ANG_ARNG_DODCMD_ID.csv IN PROGRESS
