21st Century Complete Guide to the National GeospatialIntelligence Agency formerly the National Imagery and Mapping Agency and the Advanced Community Computer Research - NGA - NIMA - CD-ROM
Author: Department of Defense

This up-to-date electronic book on CD-ROM covers the newly named National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), formerly the National Imagery and Mapping Agency (NIMA), and ARDA, the Advanced Research and Development Activity located at the National Security Agency and recently featured in news reports. ARDA - The Advanced Research and Develo... more »pment Activity (ARDA) is an Intelligence Community (IC) center for conducting advanced research and development related to information technology (IT) (information stored, transmitted, or manipulated by electronic means). ARDA sponsors high risk, high payoff research designed to produce new technology to address some of the most important and challenging IT problems faced by the intelligence community. The research is currently organized into five technology thrusts, Information Exploitation, Quantum Information Science, Global Infosystems Access, Novel Intelligence from Massive Data and Advanced Information Assurance. NGA - With the fiscal 2004 Defense Authorization Bill, the National Imagery and Mapping Agency (NIMA) officially became the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA). "The new name?NGA?better reflects the completeness of what this Agency does and the value we bring to national security," says Office of Corporate Relations Director Mark Schultz. "NGA provides geospatial intelligence to the nation?s war fighters and senior policymakers." Geospatial intelligence, or GEOINT, is the exploitation and analysis of imagery and geospatial information to describe, assess and visually depict physical features and geographically referenced activities on Earth. Following the tragic events of Sept. 11, 2001, NIMA accelerated the convergence of various analytic tradecrafts (cartography, geospatial analysis, imagery analysis, marine analysis, aeronautical analysis, regional analysis and geodesy) into the new discipline. Supporting both homeland security and combat operations forced creative thinking and innovation to become standard. Analysts collaborated in unique ways, using emerging technology to develop specialized GEOINT products for a growing and diverse customer base. At the same time, senior leadership completely revamped coordination practices while inserting new business processes, all within an environment of urgency. Headquarters remain in Bethesda, Md., with major facilities in the Washington, D.C., and St. Louis metropolitan areas and support teams worldwide. This CD-ROM has over 37,000 pages reproduced using Adobe Acrobat PDF software and Reader software is included. The Acrobat cataloging technology adds enormous value and uncommon functionality to this impressive collection of government documents and material. There is no other reference that is as fast, convenient, comprehensive, and portable! Our CD-ROMs are privately-compiled collections of official public domain U.S. government files and documents - they are not produced by the federal government. They are designed to provide a convenient user-friendly reference work, utilizing the benefits of the Acrobat format to uniformly present thousands of pages that can be rapidly reviewed or printed without untold hours of tedious searching and downloading.
