Communications InfrastructureMost Complex AF Mission Data Set (MDS)• Multidirectional, Multiple Media, High Granularity• Currently handled via Hardcopy “CSIR Process”• Microstation Drawing Records [KS,CD,MH,CV,BL]

Communications MDS (CMDS)• Significant Achievement by 38th EIG/GF• Comprehensive, well-designed data model• Captures “Outside Plant” Path/Cable/Equipment• Geospatial Data consistent w CIP & other MDS’s• 38th EIG Planning for CSIR transition to CMDS


Why CMDS Implementation?

CS activities “escalating questions”• Where exactly are Comm assets located?• What are those Comm assets at each location?• What is theoretical capacity and how much used?

Objective 1: Facilitate dig permits & minimize line cutsNeed: Accurate Comm-Path & “live” GeoBase CIP context

Objective 2: Complete Comm Asset CharacterizationNeed: CSIR-type detail for Cables/Equipment but GeoSpatial

Objective 3: Effective Planning [Base Blueprint & ER]Need: Query for Duct/Cable Capacity & Impacted SystemsNeed: CMDS links to TeleManagement Sys, Cable Records, etc.


Transformation: Enabling Capability

C4ISR Infrastructure Planning System (CIPS)• Managing Comm Planning & Investments

Geospatial: CIPS Visualization Component (CVC)CVC v. 3.2.1 “Thick Client” since 2006• ArcGIS Extension [desktop] for CSIR conversion to CMDS• Replacement for CSIR sheets:

• Manhole & Vault Diagrams [MH, VT] “Butterflies”• Cable Diagrams [CD] “Grid Section Sheets”

• Capability: Outside Plant Cables/ContainersCVC Enterprise Version: “CIPS Spatial” [April 2007]• GOTS on Oracle Spatial, Workspace Manager• Allows viewing, editing, posting on remote server• Local Data Stewardship – Stored on CIPS central server(s)


Results of CVC ImplementationCurrent Situation:CSIR Drawing Set• Paper-space section maps at

fixed scale• Obsolete infrastructure

backdrop, invariable• Electronic version-control at

38th EIG• Latest data version is red-

lined hardcopy at Base• Paper Maps copied &

recopied for users• Query = “Read Annotation”

New Business Process:CMDS Baseline Layers• Geo-referenced, seamless map

layers (zoom & pan)• Overlays CIP, aerial imagery &

other GeoBase MDS• Each installation is its own

Data Steward• Latest data is electronic and

updated in SCX/SCM• View and edit through Web

browser map services• Ready for Flexible Query &

Analysis through variety of software tools

• Self-Service Print Capability

Status: AMC CMDS Project

FY 05-06: Survey Comm-Path 12 AMC bases FY 05-06: CVC Pilot Implementation• Scott AFB, Dover AFB with CVC Desktop• Both currently accessible through CIPS Spatial

FY 07: Current Implementation Activities• CONOPS Development• Create CVC-CMDS for additional AMC bases

• McChord AFB, MacDill AFB: Near Complete (QC)• McGuire AFB, Travis AFB, Fairchild AFB: Initiated

• Training & “Baton Pass” to CSAFMC: Hill AFB & Wright-Patterson AFB

AMC Operational CONOPS

Background• Provides AMC-specific and AF-wide context for the current

CONOPS.Problem Statement• Specific challenges in a Communications Squadron business

process that are addressed by the AMC GCMDS CONOPSObjectives• Drivers of process transformation resolving the stated problems.

Desired Effects• Narrative describing the benefits of new mission capabilities that

will result from AMC GCMDS CONOPS implementation.Employment Concept• Description of the “Critical and Enabling Capabilities” provided by

the implementation of CVC and the GCMDS at AMC installations.


Sequenced Actions• Narrative description of how the GCMDS CONOPS unfolds

in a sequence of major activities.CONOPS Operational Roles & Responsibilities• Describes the principal roles and responsibilities under the

GCMDS CONOPS at an AMC installation.Command Relationships• Identifies the major dependencies upon external and

internal organizations that may affect the sequenced activities outlined by the CONOPS.

End State & Time Horizon• Identifies the milestones, timeframes, and capability metrics

that characterize a completed implementation of the CONOPS.
