3Regional HIFLD Concept Mission
- Work with HIFLD members and contributing
partners in the PSA Areas involved with Homeland
Security, Homeland Defense, Civil Support, and
Emergency Preparedness, Response and Recovery to
promote domestic infrastructure information
gathering, sharing and protection, visualization,
and spatial analysis

5Regional HIFLD Mission Requirement
- Requirement for increased and sustained
collaboration expressed by - National State Geospatial Information Council
(NSGIC) - National Association of Counties (NACo)
- Infrastructure information required prior to
incidents for training and planning to enhance
preparedness, response, and recovery - Extend awareness and reach of Federal
Infrastructure Protection resources - Strengthen Federal State Private Sector
Partnerships - We are doing this on the protection and security
fronts. - Focus on Data and GIS interaction and
collaboration - Savings of Ms spent on commercial data
6Mission Gap H/V Data and GIS Integration
- Partnerships (w/ data and GIS counterparts at the
SL level) - Critical component for true data integration and
exposing data services - Critical to coordinated remote sensing operations
- Enhanced Data Management Requirements, Access
and Information Sharing, Collection, Standards,
Protection - Infrastructure data is not just tabular or flat
its geospatial, imagery, video - Infrastructure data is not just shared via PC -
leverage expose sensor data (context!) - Increased Awareness of Federal Support, Data,
Tools and Training - Help level the playing field between States and
Counties with and without resources to leverage
infrastructure data for their Infrastructure
Protection programs - Accelerate build of HSIP Freedom (Federally
acquired data provided to SL gov.) - Increased data population of the Infrastructure
Data Warehouse - Increased coordinated preparedness and situation
awareness down to the County level
HIFLD Regional Concept will close this critical
gap!
7Value Added Objectives
- Enhanced situational awareness and support to IP
activities at the SL level - Integrated GIS efforts
- Collaboration and dynamic sharing of data
- Enhanced support for Infrastructure Protection
field operations - Meet ASIP's Guidance
- provide better geospatial products / capabilities
for PSAs - Leverage remote sensing capabilities to enhance
infrastructure protection - Structured Data Management - Continuously improve
HSIP Gold infrastructure data and accelerate the
build out of HSIP Freedom data sets - Decrease Infrastructure data buys over time
- Contribute to the National Information Sharing
Environment - Federal and State Government geospatial data and
information sharing - Provide education and awareness of Federal data
management and GIS efforts to the PSA Areas - Understand and help resolve regional data and
technical requirements and issues - COOP Data Service IDW for States, States for
Counties and Counties for Cities
8Outreach Focus

Representatives - State and County data managers
- Industry (New)
- Remote Sensing Providers
- Geospatial service providers
- Insurance
- Assessors
- Data Providers
- Associations (New)
- Water, Power, GIS, Emergency Management, others
All data and context to data is local!
9Horizontal / Vertical Infrastructure Data
Management
- Get data to the States
- Build and Share Composite Layers for National,
Regional and State Infrastructure for HSIP
Freedom and HSIP Gold - Same Data Serving Multiple OGC Viewers - ESRI,
Google, Microsoft, WEBEOC - Build Understanding of Regional Interdependencies
This will take timecant be done without
sustained partnerships.
10- Personnel Requirements
- National HIFLD 1
- Regional IEBs 16
- GIS/A for PSAs 8
11HIFLD Phased Implementation
- Phase I-III Complete
- Phase IV Alpha Information Gathering (Store in
Geodatabase/Shapefile) - Identify Federal Sponsors (DHS/IICD, DCIP, ISE
PM) / Leads for each Area (PSA) - Prioritize PSA Areas for implementation based on
resources (2-3 initially) - Identify PSA Area Participants and Collect
Contact Information - Identify Regional / State Meetings that already
exists LEVERAGE - Identify Regional Staffing
- Phase IV Bravo Layout Regional Meeting Schedule
- Layout Regional Themes and Venues
- Layout Initial Agendas (common thread
infrastructure data and GIS support to IP) - From FEDs HSPD-7, NIPP, DCIP, HSIP Freedom/Gold,
PPWG, FEMA, EPA, FGDC HLS, GIS Inventory, DISDI,
NORTHCOM, Remote Sensing Capabilities, GDM, FEMA
MapMod, NOAA Coastal Data - Applications / Models iCav, DHS Earth, ACAMs,
SAGE, BZPPs, IST, CAPTAP - From Regions State Organizations, Projects,
Geospatial Data Efforts Requirements Gathering
and Data Collection, Data Sharing Effort - Evolve into Data and GIS Technology Integration
Activities - Data / Geospatial Resource website for each PSA
Area on HIFLD website - Remote sensing coordination, integration, and
leveraging - Regional HIFLD Data (HSIP Gold and Freedom)
Feedback Mechanism - Integrate Webinars, VTCs, Lessons Learned, Data
Collection Strategies / Implementation Plans
12Metrics / Measures of Success
- Increased participation/demand for Infrastructure
Protection data/GIS Services - IT and MTI Tools, Training, Data and Products
- Data Layer Sharing
- HSIN Accounts, iCAV Accounts, HIFLD WG
Membership, ACAMS Data Input - Infrastructure Analysis Product Sharing
- Model Output Sharing
- HSIP Requirements / Sources Feedback and
Refinement - Better, faster and cheaper data
- Increased awareness to GCCs / SCCs on how data
and GIS can support the partnership model - Import and Export of Good Practices
- Increase use of data and tools in Regional
Response Preparation and Planning
13Summary
- Meets ASIP guidance to get better support to PSAs
- Meets PSA programs primary goal to build and
sustain effective CIKR partnerships and
coordination mechanisms - Provides data, information and applications to
State Governments - Strengthens Federal State preparedness for
Homeland Security / Defense - Data Sourcing for HSIP Freedom and infrastructure
protection - Model for National Information Sharing Strategy
and Information Sharing Environment - Cost sharing across agencies to meet common
mission goals
