2007 NSG Strategic Intent

Director’s Message

This 2007 Statement of Strategic Intent describes our vision, goals and objectives for the next five years for the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) and the National System for Geospatial Intelligence. It has been helped considerably by input from throughout NGA and the Community. Integration and collaboration across the community is our pathway to success. GEOINT plays a critical role in virtually every Intelligence Community and Department of Defense mission; we will not fail to partner as closely as possible with our counterpart agencies and ensure that GEOINT is effectively utilized whenever and wherever it is needed...

...The goals and objectives presented in this Statement of Strategic Intent fully align with priorities of both the Director of National Intelligence’s National Intelligence Strategy and the Secretary of Defense’s Defense Intelligence Guidance. It emphasizes that we must focus outward and increase our operational tempo, for we are a nation at war. As such, we will support our partners with a heightened sense of urgency as a unified GEOINT community...
