ISR
ISR stands for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance. It refers to the coordinated collection, processing, and dissemination of information and data to provide situational awareness and support decision-making in military operations.
TECHNICAL DEFINITION
Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) is a critical military function encompassing the synchronized and integrated planning, collection, processing, exploitation, and dissemination of data and information to provide commanders with actionable intelligence and enhanced battlespace awareness for effective decision-making.
BACKGROUND
The Joint Functional Component Command for Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance was a subordinate command of the United States Strategic Command, one of the nine Unified Combatant Commands under the United States Department of Defense (DOD) and co-located with the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). It served as the center for planning, execution, and assessment of the United States military's global Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance operations from 2005-2016; a key enabler in achieving global situational awareness. In 2016 JFCC-ISR was realigned to the Joint Staff.
