美国国防部（DOD）网站12月14日消息，美国国防部首席数据官认为，为有效运用数据辅助全域作战、高层决策支持和业务分析预测，必须建立合适的数据使用专业管理队伍，如首席数据官、数据高管、数据档案员、数据经理等。他称，国防部正在推动更多地利用数据辅助更快更好地决策，所属各机构都在设立首席数据官，数据文化正在发生变化，传统的“这是我的数据”理念正在向开放共享数据转变，数据藩篱正在逐渐拆除，利用数据驱动高层领导更多地开展决策研讨的趋势蔚然成风，数据驱动决策论坛正在成为新一代决策模式，人工智能技术在服务决策上释放越来越大的能量。
另据美国防务快讯（BREAKING DEFENSE）11月17日报道，美国陆军C5ISR中心正在实施代号为“祈雨计划”的项目，旨在开发海量数据快速处理与分发共享的“数据架构(Data Fabric)”，以服务于联合全域指挥控制建设。Data Fabric实质上是通用技术标准和应用程序接口，用于非兼容系统的数据共享，促进“每一个传感器”到“任何一个射手”数据有效连接，而且不再是不完整、不详尽数据的分享，如标题信息、报告摘要、元数据，而是从精确制导武器到人工智能算法学习训练的全面详细数据或报告。这种架构是机器到机器之间的数据直接、自动、快速交互与无缝链接，无需人员干预而造成延时与误差。系统原型由美国硅谷的帕兰蒂尔科技公司和通用动力研制，首台样机系统预计2023年部署，可与其它军兵种互联互通。
Effective Use of Data in DOD Requires the Right Leaders
DOD，DEC. 14, 2020 | BY C. TODD LOPEZ, DOD NEWS
The Defense Department released its new data strategy in September, with a focus on joint all-domain operations, senior-leader decision support and business analytics.
Across the department, agencies are now appointing their own chief data officers to become part of a community that wants to be able to use the DOD’s vast amount of data to make better decisions faster.
David Spirk, DOD’s chief data officer, identified “strategic impatience” as a characteristic of those who will end up being the best CDOs within the department.
“The right person for a leadership job in the data front in the department right now … [is] somebody who knows when to be patient and impatient with extreme precision,” Spirk said Dec. 10 during ThoughtSpot’s virtual Beyond 2020 Digital conference. “We can only push these organizations so far, so fast because it is a cultural change.”
As the department moves toward using more data to make better, faster decisions, organizations that have in the past been reticent to share their data will need to open up to the idea if they want to reap the benefits that come from matching data with artificial intelligence and machine learning tools, Spirk said.
Many organizations — with the right CDOs in place — are making such shifts now in their thinking.
“Some of the legacy concepts around ‘this is my data’ just naturally change when we start using data to drive some of our senior leader-most decision-making forums,” Spirk said. “I think at the department level we’re blasting through some of those legacy cultural tendencies.”
One way that’s happened, Spirk said, at least at the department level, is through the newly-created Deputies Management and Action Group, which involves the deputy secretary of defense, the vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the service chiefs and the service secretaries, Spirk said.
“The fact is we sit with Deputy Secretary of Defense [David] Norquist a couple times a week, as a small team, and talk him through where we’re at, what data are we unlocking, what data-driven decision-making forum can we put this in front of next. This senior leader attention is [now] foot-stomping and smashing through resistance from middle management because the tactical elements are now asking for the same ,” he said.
Spirk said there is now a data community across the department that is growing, and this data community is helping break down barriers that have in the past prevented the sharing of data. The new data community includes chief data officers, data stewards, data custodians and data managers, he said.
“As we start stitching this team together and looking at hard problems that we can help each other out with, there’s a growing team of data professionals who can go in and explain to [their] senior leaders that this isn’t as scary as they might have thought in the past,” he said. “Making our data visible allows us to more quickly get predictive analytics so we can create training quality data sets and really unleash the power of AI across our decision making.”
