Why we are here…

“I need to bed my forces down and I need to know all this stuff

about it. I want one console and a bunch of icons would be

fine, but they better be integrated. I don't want to arrive to find my tent city

where my bombs have to go.”

Gen John Jumper, Jun ‘01

“Make sure we all understand (I think we do but just to make sure). This isn't just RED HORSE

Engineers. This is part of our CRG CONOPS and part of our GMTF CONOPS - includes security

forces, engineers, medical, contracting, comm, airlift control, airspace/airfield ops etc.” Gen

The HAF’s Challenge

•Recognize that the Air Force is starting from multiple “places”

•Find a way to converge on an structured and single GeoBase waypoint

•Then Towards “One Air Force, One Network, One GeoBase”

AF CIO Involvement

ILE-I met with AF-CIO/Systems Mar 04 to discuss opportunities to more closely team with the AF-CIO enterprise IT effortsResult: AF-CIO will look for ways to integrate the present and potential capabilities of GeoBase into the mainstream enterprise efforts

ILE-I and AF CIO will work to formally recognize IM&V as a distinct cross-cutting mission architecture council The goal is to have IM&V (GeoBase) share equal footing with other mission architectures within the overarching USAF Enterprise Architecture Integration CouncilAF can lead the other Services in showing how geospatial information resources can be optimally employed across the mission

As of: 13I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e

Why Improve Expeditionary Site Planning?

Basing deficiencies in recent contingencies: No prior site knowledge to optimize basingNo beddown pre-plansPoor parking plans required some units to return to home basesPoor beddown plans caused excess resources to be airlifted

General Accounting Office (GAO) review (01-481) of 1999’s Air War Over Serbia (AWOS) Basing Strategy--GAO to EUCOM: Develop aircraft basing strategy tied to future threatsMaintain a database of complete information on EUCOM airfields

Need decision-quality information on airfields

Quote

“When all else fails, fall back on your doctrine. When all else fails, fall back on what is doctrinally right.”

Lt Gen Michael MoseleyUSCENTAF/CCInside The Air Force

June 20, 2003

We as AF Engineers need to make sure doctrine reflects the preferred way to do business

Joint Engineer Doctrine

Does it prevent Service redundancies?

Does joint doctrine clearly capture the potential of Geobase in mission planning?

As of: 21I n t e g r i t y - S e r v i c e - E x c e l l e n c e

Joint Pub 3-34 defines 3 types of engineering: Combat, General, and Topographic
