2. Information Sharing Challenges
“….following the attacks on the NY World Trade Center towers, engineers knew 15 to 20 minutes beforehand that the towers would collapse, but couldn’t notify on-scene personnel…..Defense personnel, first responders, police, firefighters, rescue workers do not have the ability to communicate and share information…. This is true then and now...Benjamin Riley, ADSECDEF
“…Existing DoD guidance on establishing information sharing agreements with Federal, state local authorities does not mandate action or clear standards….such agreements need to include allied, partner agencies and other critical mission partners, with clearly established standards regarding scope and timeliness of formal information sharing….OSD, Final Report Aug 18, 2010 on Information Sharing Efforts Outside DoD

3. Information Sharing Challenges
Lessons Learned from the Haiti Relief Efforts:
“ In Humanitarian Relief and Disaster Relief efforts, we need to provide critical data and information sharable with the host government, civil society and affected populations (in local languages) in order to strengthen host country capacities, leverage local expertise, gain their input, involve them in coordination and empower them.
“With so much information coming in from different sources, it is critical that this data includes essential meta-data (source, date-stamp, geo-reference) and adheres to the Principles of Humanitarian Information Management, i.e. accessibility, accountability, impartiality, inclusiveness, interoperability, relevance, sensitivity, sustainability, timeliness and verifiability…”
“Simply making enormous amounts of data and information available and introducing new technologies is not enough to ensure efficient coordination and effective decision-making. Strong management, proper resourcing, advanced training and recognized standards and policies are necessary to take full advantage of data and information for strategic analysis and operational applications.”

5. IMISAS Overview Problem Statement Workshop Description Objectives
Military and civilian actors lack a coherent framework / capability to information share and collaborate across multiple domains with other actors primarily due to a lack of procedures, business rules, restrictive policies and non-interoperable networks and systems
Workshop Description
Identify information sharing gaps and issues and examine potential solutions to be explored via experimentation
Objectives
Develop a community of interest
Identify and validate challenges: information sharing business rules, policies and procedures, existing technology
Compare existing architectures and discuss potential new architecture
Problem Statement
The JFC requires the ability to understand the threat, and to detect, characterize and interdict containerized and shielded RN materials.
Description
Develop a holistic systems approach, employing current and near term technologies, augmented by effective use of non-sensor capabilities (intelligence, information sharing, predictive analysis, etc.) to improve the JFC capability to understand the threat, and to detect, characterize and interdict RN threats. Additionally identify and evaluate mid-term capabilities and recommend technologies for acceleration to fill gaps in this enhanced systems approach.
Outcomes
Improved ability to detect and characterize RN materials using an enhanced holistic systems approach, employing current and near-term technologies, augmented by effective use of non-sensor capabilities (intel, info-sharing, predictive analysis etc.).
Mid-term technological solutions are identified that can be accelerated to fill gaps in the proposed current enhanced systems approach to RN detection.
Improved ability to interdict RN materials by identifying existing and mid-term technologies that can be accelerated through R&D and be incorporated into an operational framework.
Proposed partnership (charter in final staffing) for CWMD experimentation between:
-- DTRA's Research and Development (R&D) Enterprise [technological lead]
-- STRATCOM Center for Combating WMD (SCC-WMD) [operational requirements lead]
-- USJFCOM J9 [organizational and experimentation lead]
The partnership:
-- Will synchronize CWMD experimentation
-- Informs USSTRATCOM CWMD advocacy efforts
-- Provides DTRA with insight on the applicability of technology development
-- Responds to CWMD-related Warfighter Challenges from the Services and Combatant Commands
The first topic to be addressed by this partnership is Radiological/Nuclear Detection and Interdiction. This effort will support Warfighter Challenges submitted by USAF, USMC, USSTRATCOM, and USPACOM. It will leverage and integrate analysis obtained from several ongoing and planned experimentation efforts to include:
-- JTC-I’s EMPIRE CHALLENGE 09 (CWMD Battle Management)
-- KEY RESOLVE (JTF-E portion of exercise)
-- USPACOM's Maritime Domain Awareness JIC experimentation
-- Joint Staff J8 JRO CBRN-D’s joint experiment on CBRN Intel Fusion
-- DTRA’s Campaign X (loose nukes).
IMPACT: Improved information sharing can aid in increasing the effectiveness of a broad range of operations where military and civilian actors are engaged by facilitating consultation and possible cooperation
