HADR Information/ Scenario Update D + 5
Objectives Inform the students of available HADR information sources, civilian and military, that will assist JTF leaders and staff during mission planning Understand how to overcome the information sharing challenges that militaries experience during a typical disaster response mission Apply military planning and intelligence processes to a specific disaster response scenario Apply the knowledge acquired during this module to upcoming exercises
The Quest for Information All the business of war and indeed all the business of life, is to endeavor to find out what you don't know by what you do; that's what I called "guessing what was at the other side of the hill." Duke of Wellington
Why is this important to me? After action comments from Operation SAHAYOGI HAAT, the U.S. Pacific Command s response to the 25 April 2015 Nepal earthquake: Commander s guidance remains the key means for facilitating effective staff planning and the transition from the USPACOM functional component command structure to a service-led task force or joint task force. Building more continuity of knowledge regarding previous Nepal earthquake disaster response planning and the JTF 505 Nepal HADR Concept Plan would have facilitated the initial USPACOM crisis planning and increased situational awareness. Joint Intelligence Preparation of the Operational Environment is critical for military decision-makers and responding units during a disaster response. While there are unique aspects to an HADR operation, the military decisionmaking and intelligence cycles do not change.
HADR Information Sharing Decision-makers need information Whole of Government Effort Military shares with civilian government, NGOs; International Agencies; and Private Sector Organizations Information resource collaboration Improves situational awareness Increases unity of effect Broad challenges to sharing Understandable and actionable information Accessible multi-hazard decision tools Mechanisms for effectively sharing resources and solutions Distrust amongst civilians and military
Multinational Guidelines Assist in improving interoperability, facilitating training, and providing a framework for disaster relief operations A collaborative effort among Indo- Asia-Pacific countries Provide civilian and military decision-makers timely information to focus assistance and disaster relief efforts What are our priority information requirements?
Multinational Guidelines: Tasks Task 1: Assess the situation, environment and needs in a collaborative fashion; Assisting States will leverage all available information sources. Task 2: Provide information to the Affected State, assisting military forces, international partners and relief agencies. Task 3: Assess the response capability of: (a) The international humanitarian community working within the affected state. Affected State provides information to assisting states to enable support to these efforts. (b) The Affected State s government Task 4: Develop Priority Information Requirements. PIRs will be compiled and shared on a common portal.
Priority Information Requirements The nature and scope of the disaster or crisis to include additional hazards caused by the disaster. What is the estimated population at risk? How many affected areas need to be evacuated? What is the status of the evacuation? Physical characteristics and geographical factors that will impact the mission, to include the condition of the physical transportation system in the affected area, AS and surrounding countries. What is status of the Affected State s response and have they requested or welcomed U.S. assistance? What is the status of International Aid Agency operations and Assisting Military, International Organizations, and NGO resources? What are their priorities in dealing with the situation? Air/Sea Ports of Disembarkation (APOD/SPOD) operational status and capabilities. The strengths, locations, dispositions, capabilities, and intentions of any individuals, organizations or groups that may pose a threat to the safety and security of the force.
