Recording and Tracking Improvised Explosive DevicesD-9. Division and maneuver brigade engineer planning cells must establish a central control cell for IEDclearance information. The central control cell—• Maintains a current situation map and an overlay that depicts IED activity.• Maintains and updates information on IED tracking and route status.• Maintains a database of IED information and forwards information according to the SOP.• Processes, analyzes, updates, and disseminates the information to subordinate commanders andstaff.D-10. Other services and organizations execute specific procedures to collect, record, track, and reportexplosive hazards information. The standardization of tracking this information is critical to the planningand execution of missions in an IED environment.EXPLOSIVE HAZARDS DATABASED-11. The MEOICC uses the Maneuver Control System (MCS) EHDB to manage explosive hazardinformation. The EHDB is a geo-referenced database system that takes advantage of true geographicinformation systems (GIS) functionality. The EHDB provides a capability to input, manage, track, anddisseminate explosive hazard data to maneuver units and to conduct pattern analysis on the use andlocation of potential IED sites.Note. Other services execute specific procedures to collect, record, track, and report explosivehazard information. The centralized management of this information is critical to the planningand execution of missions in an IED environment.D-12. The EHDB is also used to―• Provide a capability to manage all hazard information for <strong>Army</strong> and joint operations.• Provide a comprehensive hazard tracking capability for all minefields, IEDs, UXO, and enemyammunition caches in-theater.• Provide tools that assist in developing strategies for IED activity.• <strong>Support</strong> predeployment IPB for theater with hazard intelligence and assist in the MDMP.• Communicate with higher HQ to maintain up-to-date information.• Provide data interoperability with command and control personal computer (C2PC), MCS-light,and Falcon View.• Provide a means to collect and disseminate hazard data at any echelon. Outputs include raw datafor trend analysis, TDA, and mobility/map decision aids (MDA) in the form of maps, overlays,and graphics.• Conduct analysis on the explosive hazard data within the theater to support assured mobility todominate land operations.• Use the standard report format. See FM 90-7 for further details.D-13. The EHDB team is responsible for the input, analysis, product production, and management of theEHDB. EHDBs are also used by organizations other than the MEOICC to track explosive hazard data.D-14. The Global Minefield Database (GMFDB) is maintained at the United States. <strong>Army</strong> Engineer Schoolby the CEHC. The GMFDB collects information from the various EHDBs, merges the data into onedatabase, and sends the updated information back to the field.JOINT DIGITAL INCIDENT GATHERING SYSTEMD-15. The Joint Digital Incident Gathering System (JDIGS) database compiles EOD incident and technicalreports primarily for EOD and countermeasures development organizations. The JDIGS is a searchabledatabase that allows access to these finished reports based on user queries. JDIGS database does notproduce machine-readable, formatted data for export or use in geospatial representations for use bymaneuver commanders.21 September 2005 <strong>FMI</strong> 3-<strong>34.119</strong>/MCIP 3-17.01 D-3
