USCG Geospatial Information System (GIS) Profile<br />

Contents<br />

The USCG Geospatial Information System (GIS) Profile provides a<br />

top-level view of the primary functions using geospatial resources,<br />

the actuating and governance standards, the data exchange<br />

partnerships, data sources, general technology components and<br />

methods, and the main supporting IT Products and Services.<br />

The content shown in the profile was identified through analysis of<br />

the DHS GIS perspective of OMB's FEA Consolidated Reference<br />

Model (CRM).<br />

This profile can be used to learn how the USCG is using GIS to<br />

achieve its mission.<br />

Design<br />

The GIS Profile is designed in six sections that show the geospatial<br />

resources used to integrate USCG assets into an interoperable<br />

system of supporting activities. Technology, strategic partners,<br />

standards & policies, data, IT products, and business functions are<br />

depicted as equally important resources, which surround the USCG<br />

global mission, mission support, and business support activities.
