Joint Air Ground Integration Center Systems Configuration 17 April 2019 ATP 3-91.1/AFTTP 3-2.86 B-3 TBMCS EXECUTION STATUS AND MONITORING TOOL B-4. The execution status and monitoring tool is the software application that allows the user to display, manage the ATO, and update the mission status of airborne assets. THE TRIAD OF SYSTEMS FOR FIRES AND AIRSPACE DECONFLICTION IN THE JAGIC B-5. As depicted in figure B-1, the next three systems: JADOCS, AFATDS, and TAIS are JAGIC systems instrumental to the execution of fires concurrent with airspace user integration. When any combination of these systems are unavailable, the JAGIC uses external data sources to continue the scheme of fires, scheme of maneuver, and air battle plan. JOINT AUTOMATED DEEP OPERATIONS COORDINATION SYSTEM B-6. The JADOCS facilitates the integration of fires. JAGICs use JADOCS to coordinate the timely execution of targets of opportunity, high-payoff targets, and high-value targets. JADOCS allows for internal and external coordination and execution of targets by providing a suite of tools and interfaces for horizontal and vertical integration across functional areas. JADOCS has the capability to receive and, or import the ATO and ACO, as well as subscribe to the division DDS to receive data from other mission command information systems (MCIS) and Army battle command systems (ABCS). B-7. The primary users of JADOCS are the SAD, ATOM, Air Force airspace manager, interdiction coordinator, procedural controllers, targeting officer, ASOC intelligence NCO, and the JAGIC chief. Other JAGIC positions such as the aviation LNO or UAS LNO that do not use AFATDS, TAIS, or other designated system, may use JADOCS to maximize the use of a common system for coordination of fires and airspace integration. ADVANCED FIELD ARTILLERY TACTICAL DATA SYSTEM B-8. The AFATDS is a multi-Service integrated fire support system that processes fire missions, air support requests, and other related information to coordinate and maximize the use of all fire support assets. AFATDS meets the needs of the JAGIC fires cell by using critical resources in managing, collecting, and passing vital fire support data throughout fire support channels - initiating fire missions and sharing target information. AFATDS can create, store, and check FSCMs and ACMs. It can also identify control and coordination measure violations during fire mission processing. If needed, AFATDS can process immediate air support requests to the JAGIC, and ASOC. Furthermore, the AFATDS supports planning, execution, movement control, artillery mission support, field artillery fire direction operations, and target analysis and engagement. It is interoperable with all fires subsystems including gun display units, artillery fire control systems, Fire- finder Radar, Airborne Target Handover System, and the forward observer system. It interoperates with the ABCS suite. The system also interoperates with joint level automated systems such as TBMCS and the Global Command and Control System (GCCS). The primary user of the AFATDS in the JAGIC is the fire control NCO. AFATDS can process digital coordination requests for airspace deconfliction with the TAIS and receive the airspace control overlay and ACO from TAIS. TACTICAL AIRSPACE INTEGRATION SYSTEM B-9. The TAIS airspace workstation provides automated airspace control planning and enhanced airspace control execution. TAIS is used to process airspace control means requests and integrate ACMs. TAIS is also used to develop unit airspace plans and coordinate ACMs with higher headquarters and the ACA. TAIS interfaces with Army and joint command and control systems. It is integrated through the Army air-ground systems and provides a direct link to the theater air-ground system through an interface with the TBMCS. It also has an added civil and government interagency capability. B-10. For the JAGIC, TAIS provides a visual three-dimensional airspace picture with near real-time air tracks. TAIS combines multiple input sources into a single airspace picture for situational awareness and
