Air Force Geospatial Support Services

Provide geospatial support for improved shared situational awareness and decision making across the various echelons of military hierarchy including individual level, installation level, and management headquarters level. Support may include technical assistance at Headquarters Air Force, Field Operating Agencies, Numbered Air Forces (NAFs), Main Operating Bases (MOBs) and reachback support to forward deployed military personnel at Forward Operating Locations (FOLs) as well as a surge capability to quickly respond to wartime, contingencies and manmade or natural disasters. Support also includes maintaining an Enterprise Architecture to store and disseminate geospatial information and integrate authoritative business data for authorized users. Enterprise Architecture consists of hardware and software (Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) or custom), includes several processes and must be structured for responsiveness, agility, standardization, and system availability.
