The Navel Tactical Grid (NTG) system implements the NOA and provides and distributes an efficient, agile, and expeditious communications and information exchange system for the Navy. This system will support and enhance the Navy's warfighting capabilities by enabling interoperability between disparate systems and creating a holistic operational environment that brings together Surface, Sub-surface, Airborne, Unmanned, and Shore platforms. The Networks Pillar is focused on three basic tenants: Inter-Service Information Exchange, Communications Resiliency and Interoperability, and Integrated Software-Defined Network of Networks. The Network Pillar is tasked with determining NTG requirements and technical solutions and applying them to specific target platforms and information exchange requirements. The Pillar works with current Programs of Records to define aligned platform architectures and acquisition roadmaps that result in delivering the NTG's capability in a timely manner. Key to the NTG is implementing routing technology that can adapt to environmental changes via automated or manual reconfiguration by managing all communications resources as a centralized holistic capability.</span></span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"> </span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-weight: bold\">Data</span><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34)\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">:</span> </span><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34)\">The NOA's data architecture includes requirements for delivering data services for enhanced distributed maritime operations. The Warfighting Data Service (WDS) allows information sharing across the warfighting domain and contains functions for discovering, cataloging, and exchanging data across echelons and security levels. As a DoN enterprise data solution, WDS provides authoritative data to various personas, primarily for use in AI/ML, un-crewed/autonomous vehicles, and Battle Management Aids (i.e., software applications). The data architecture includes ingesting, transformation, cleansing, labeling, curation, storage, distribution, federation, cataloging, analytics, and discovery capabilities. The WDS data fabric is designed to be portable, scalable, and deployable in denied, disconnected, intermittent, and low-bandwidth (DDIL) environments and follows an unconstrained and flexible modular open data fabric design. WDS utilizes commercial open-source and off-the-shelf software, is highly secure, available, extensible via service mesh, and accessible via open application program interface (API) standards.</span></span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"> </span></p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt\"><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-weight: bold\">Warfighting Tools and Analytics (WTA)</span><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34)\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold\">:</span> </span><span style=\"color: rgb(34, 34, 34)\">Delivers tools (e.g., Decision and Battle Management Aids (BMA) applications) to DON assets using the OSA DSO pipeline and directly coordinate with Navy warfare development commands.
