IP-1000 Information Products
Information products represent a compilation of related, structured information that can be regarded as the formal output of a business process and/or can be used as an input to other business processes. These information products can be seen as any communication or representation of knowledge such as facts, data, or opinions in any medium or form. Their definition is linked with activities in related business processes and with automation needs (applications and their respective functions). Information products have the capacity to be delivered in any medium or form, including (structured or non-structured) textual, numerical, graphic, cartographic, narrative, or audio-visual forms. They may be uniformly consumed by more than one actor or role in more than one business process. In the context of the C3 Taxonomy, information products are focussed on their relevance to deliver clear, complete and effective information exchange in support of military missions. The second layer of the associated taxonomy specifies six main categories: • Governance Information Products – about the overall system of decision-making, authority, and organizational structure, providing the core doctrine for planning, executing, and supporting operations. • Domain-Specific Information Products – about facts and activities pertinent to a specific military domain, existing only when no similar products are available in other domains. • Operation Enabling Information Products – about process activities that directly support operational outputs, such as targeting, environment preparation, force protection, and coordination, developed by various communities of interest. • Operation Support Information Products – about facts on activities and resources, necessary to sustain and enhance ongoing operational effectiveness of the force or organization. • Situational Awareness Information Products – about critical information that enables decision-makers to perceive, comprehend, and project environmental elements to conduct safe and effective missions. • Management Information Products – about information related to the planning, organization, and control of resources, processes, and personnel to achieve specific organizational objectives.

IP-1668 Link 4 Messages
The Tactical Data Link 4 message is a formatted message used to exchange vector commands to airborne fighter aircraft. Link 4 is a non-secure netted, time division link operating in the UHF band at 5,000 bits per second. There are two distinguished types of Link 4: # Link 4A - also known as Tactical Digital Information Link-C (TADIL-C) - provides digital surface-to-air, air-to-surface, and air-to-air tactical communications. Originally designated Link-4, this link was designed to replace voice communications for the control of tactical aircraft. The use of Link-4 has since been expanded to include communication of digital data between surface and airborne platforms. Link-4A's transmissions are not secure, nor are they jam-resistant. However, it is easy to operate and maintain without serious or long-term connectivity problems. # Link 4C is a fighter-to-fighter data link which is intended to complement Link 4A although the two links do not communicate directly with each other. Link 4C uses F-series messages and provides some measure of ECM resistance. Up to four fighter aircraft may participate in a single Link 4C net. Eventually Link 16 will assume Link 4A's role in AIC and ATC operations and Link 4C's role in fighter-to-fighter operations. Message standards are defined in STANAG 5504 while standard operating procedures are laid down in ADatP 4.

With that direction comes the authority to coordinate operational and logistics planning. The deployment planning process begins with the definition of the concept of operations and the Statement of Requirements (SOR) needed to accomplish the task. # The SOR defines the Force Requirement which are sent to Nations via ACTWARN, or ACTREQ messages. An Allied Force List (AFL) shows national commitments. Nations then respond with their force commitments in Force Commitment Lists or FORCEPREPs. Upon receipt of the National force nominations, an Allied Disposition List (ADL) is prepared by matching the commitments (AFL) against the requirements and by adding the force receiving commanders' parameters such as priorities, Desired Order of Arrival (DOA), Commander's Required Delivery Date (CRD), Air/sea Port of Debarkation (APOD/SPOD), railhead and Final Destination (FD). The ADL is sent back to the Nations together with the Commander's Planning Guidance. # Upon finalization of the ADL, movement and logistics planners from the troop contributing nation(TCN)s prepare and develop National Detailed Deployment Plans (DDPs) in conjunction with the Broad Planning Guidance. Nations submit their initial National DDPs to the AMCC, and subsequently, they are distributed to the relevant planning authorities for evaluation, integration, deconfliction, coordination and prioritization. # The AMCC combines these initial National DDPs into one Multinational DDP (MNDDP) which is analyzed and presented during the subsequent movement planning conferences. These movement planning conferences define, evaluate, and deconflict aspects of the movement planning process including the sustainment of forces, and identification of transportation assets and shortages. # Movement and Transportation planning is an iterative process necessitating close interaction among all deployment planning and execution authorities. # The final product of this entire process is a coordinated and deconflicted MNDDP that supports the Operational Concept. This MNDDP is included into the OPORD by the OPCON Headquarters in the form of a Movement Support Annex (SUPLAN).

IP-2031 Operational Incident Reports
The Operational Incident Report (OIR) is the native exchange format for JOCWatch. This format is a complete description of incident and log entry data within the application. By definition, JOCWatch is both a producer and consumer of OIR. Third-party applications may also access the OIR format programmatically for their own purposes. The initial format of OIR was an XML-based flat list directly mapped to table columns. Since JOCWatch 1.5.0 the OIR format has become a structured description. Increments to the OIR are usually introduced in response to feature changes in JOCWatch, therefore the application usually only produces OIR of the latest available version. This naturally means that older versions of JOCWatch cannot ordinarily consume incidents produced in a later version. For this reason, deployments of JOCWatch are usually managed in a top-down fashion, whereby the organizationally top-most element is upgraded first.
