MANUAL

J-3

CJCSM 3150.15C

DISTRIBUTION: A, B, C, J, S

20 November 2009

STANDARD SPECIFIED GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION FILE REQUEST (GEOREQ)

Reference(s): See Enclosure F.

1. Purpose. This manual outlines procedures supporting the maintenance of

the Standard Geographic Location file (GEOFILE), as part of the joint reporting

structure as described in reference a.

2. Cancellation. CJCSM 3150.15B, 1 October 2002 with CH-1, 31 October

2003 and CH-2, 1 November 2005 are canceled.

3. Applicability. This manual applies to all combatant commanders,

subunified commands, joint task forces, subordinate commands and all others,

as appropriate, involved in using GEOFILE during military planning and

operations.

4. Policy. The GEOFILE is the authoritative automated repository of the

Department of Defense for the registration of military installations and

worldwide geographic locations subject to reference during military planning

and operations.

5. Definitions

a. Specified Geographic Location File Request (GEOREQ). The GEOREQ

provides the Joint Staff with the means to manage the registration,

cancellation, and maintenance of GEOLOC codes and their associated

descriptive elements. See Enclosure A for GEOREQ content.

b. Specified Geolocation (GEOLOC) Code. The GEOLOC code provides a

standard coded representation to identify a specified geographic location when

that location is identified within DOD data systems. As such, GEOLOC codes

facilitate rapid and compatible data interchange within DOD systems.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY

CJCSM 3150.15C

20 November 2009

6. Responsibilities

a. The Deputy Director for Global Operations, Command Systems

Operations Division (J-3/DDGO/CSOD), is responsible for the overall

management and administration of the GEOFILE and is the approving

authority for the registration of all GEOFILE data.

b. The Chief of Staff, U.S. Army; Chief of Naval Operations; Chief of Staff,

U.S. Air Force; Commandant of the Marine Corps; DOD agencies that use the

GEOFILE; combatant commanders, and the Joint Staff are responsible for

originating GEOREQs, as required.

c. USTRANSCOM is responsible for reporting data values to populate the

GEOFILE with defense transportation regulation (DTR) codes for air terminals,

water ports, consolidation and containerization points, and CONUS freight

distribution centers. When air terminal identifier codes/International Civil

Aviation Organization (ICAO) codes have not been assigned, USTRANSCOM

may create “pseudo” values when coded data is required to support air

transportation operations.

d. NGA is the primary agency responsible for reporting data for the four-

character ICAO code (as determined from appropriate sources) to be used in

the GEOFILE. ICAO codes reported for the GEOFILE should match the ICAO

codes in the NGA automated air facilities intelligence file (AAFIF). When an

established code for the GEOFILE ICAO code value does not exist,

USTRANSCOM may create “pseudo” ICAO values when required to support air

transportation operations. ICAO value adjustments can be made as necessary

to support operational requirements. NGA is a major requesting agency for the

registration of airports, which could include ICAO codes. In accordance with

the following procedures, NGA may also originate GEOLOC codes for air

facilities.

(1) In order to expedite the identification of air installations with

GEOLOC codes to be both in the AAFIF and the GEOFILE, the following block

of 400 codes is reserved for use by NGA: (AF00-AF99, AG00-AG99, AH00-

AH99, and AJ00-AJ99).

(2) GEOLOC code is one of the descriptive data elements available when

an air facility is added to the AAFIF. If the added air facility may be used in

any military or USG activity requiring location identification, a GEOLOC code

should be entered in the AAFIF. If upon examination of the specified GEOFILE

database an existing GEOLOC is not found, NGA may assign a GEOLOC from

the next available code in the block of codes reserved for NGA.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY

CJCSM 3150.15C

20 November 2009

(3) When NGA assigns a GEOLOC code from the NGA-reserved block of

codes, prompt action must be taken to have that GEOLOC code registered in

the GEOFILE. By e-mail, by newsgroup, by telephone, by fax, or other

expeditious communications media, NGA must provide J-3/DDGO/CSOD or

its designated agent the data necessary to add a new GEOLOC to the

GEOFILE.

e. DISA’S Joint Staff Support Center (JSSC) is responsible for receiving

GEOREQs, processing updates to the GEOFILE, and networking data to JOPES

database sites.

7. Procedures. Requests for GEOLOC codes, changes to descriptive data, and

cancellations will be prepared per instructions contained in Enclosure A and

its appendix. Requests will be submitted to DISA/JSSC in accordance with the

following procedures.

a. When to submit a GEOREQ

(1) To request the registration of a specified geographic location.

(2) To change any data elements describing a registered GEOLOC.

(3) To cancel a registered GEOLOC code.

b. Jurisdiction. The Service having jurisdiction over the installation will

normally request a GEOLOC code identifying a military installation. Unless

overriding justification exists, tenant Services or DOD agencies at these

installations will use the GEOLOC codes established at the request of the

Service or agency having jurisdiction. Only one GEOLOC code will be used to

identify a specific installation type code for specific geographic location.

c. How to submit a GEOREQ

(1) Transmit GEOREQs to the J-3/CSOD or JSSC by fax, letter,

gccs.jopes.fm newsgroup message, memorandum, NIPRNET e-mail, or

SIPRNET e-mail (jopes@nmcc.smil.mil). Any input medium is acceptable as

long as the basic data elements are identified. The basic data elements are

location name, country and/or state code, type of installation, geographic

coordinates, and the identification of the requesting organization. If known,

the ICAO should be provided for air-capable geolocations. The DTR code

should also be provided if available. Additional geolocation-related data

elements can be determined at the time of record creation. See table 1 for

information to be submitted.

(2) GEOREQ requests will normally be processed with a routine priority.

When GEOLOC code information is essential to the planning or execution of

current military operations, the highest priority will be used. In these

instances, transmission during MINIMIZE is authorized.

d. Annual Validation. The GEOLOC code requester will be responsible for

providing accurate and current data for all descriptive data elements. Record

owners will verify the accuracy and utility of their records once a year. The

Joint Staff, J-3/DDGO/CSOD will be advised of the results of these

verifications not later than the last workday of March. Negative reports are

required.

e. Special Geographic Locations. Special geographic locations have been

created to support a generic environment for locations when a GEOLOC is

required for data entry, but a specific GEOLOC is not immediately in the

GEOFILE.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY

CJCSM 3150.15C

20 November 2009

(1) For each country code used in the GEOFILE, a generic center-of-

country GEOLOC has been created to allow reference to a location within a

country when a specific name and coordinates are not already in the file or

specific data is not desired. These GEOLOC codes generally begin with the

values “UN,” “XO,” or “XQ.”

(2) For general military planning, to allow a requirement for GEOLOC

entry for a military operation, the installation type code (ITC) “OPA” is defined.

Using the ITC of OPA, a series of generic locations are provided in the

GEOFILE. These locations can be used for maritime operating activities,

amphibious landing zones, maneuver areas, and/or other military operations.

f. Cancellations

(1) A request for the cancellation of a GEOLOC should be submitted

when it is no longer required. Recipients will be responsible for coordinating

with their subordinates, as appropriate, and notifying J-3/DDGO/CSOD if a

GEOLOC should be returned to active status.

(2) Canceled GEOLOC records are not deleted but remain in the

database as a historical record.

g. Newsgroup Reporting. The GCCS-J Newsgroup, gccs.jopes.fm, is

available via the SIPRNET for requesting changes to or reporting any problems

noted with GEOFILE or any of the standard reference files. The newsgroup

provides users with easy access to the functional database manager for quick

application of requested changes and resolution of problems. All GEOFILE

users are encouraged to describe any suspected GEOFILE problems by

reporting the incident directly to J-3/DDGO/CSOD via this Newsgroup.

J-3/DDGO/CSOD will be responsible for problem resolution.

h. Distribution

(1) GEOFILE updates will be distributed as necessary to support

operational requirements. Changes may be made as frequently as every 30

minutes. Distribution of GEOFILE updates to JOPES database sites is an

automated process. A newsgroup message will be posted to the GCCS

newsgroup when the GEOFILE is updated.

(2) DISA/JSSC processes transactions for GEOFILE updates

interactively online. Delete processing will be in accordance with paragraph 7.f.

20 November 2009

8. Summary of Changes

a. Primary changes are (1) the addition of USAFRICOM and subsequent

realignment of areas of responsibility for USEUCOM and USCENTCOM, (2) an

update of the table containing Installation Type Codes (ITCs), and (3) the use of

the ISO (International Organization for Standardization) 3166 2-character

codes as the standard for naming countries of the world, replacing the previous

Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) Publication 10-4.

b. This document has adopted the ISO 3166 2-character code in all but 34

instances. In these instances, where there is a conflict with U.S. Department

of State recognized country names or a country is not listed in ISO 3166, the

FIPS 10-4 code was retained.

9. Reports Requirements. Reports required by this manual are exempt from

normal reporting procedures in accordance with DOD Manual 8910.01M,

reference b.

10. Releasability. NOT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE. This manual is approved for

limited release. DOD components (to include the combatant commands), Joint

Staff, and other federal agencies may obtain copies of this manual through

controlled Internet access from the CJCS directives library on the SIPRNET at

http://jointstaff.js.smil.mil/portal/site/jsportal/jelmgr. Additional information

GEOREQ CONTENT

1. General. This enclosure describes the content of the GEOREQ, including

field length and composition. When appropriate, it designates the authoritative

sources for codes and spelling of locations. It also provides abbreviations for

common geographical modifiers. Example format, content, structure, and

report preparation instructions are included in the appendix to this enclosure.

2. Report Identifier. Enter GEOREQ, the report identifier.

3. Security Classification. A one-character alphabetic code used for the

classification of the data included in the report. At present, only unclassified

reports will be made and will be represented by the code “U.”

4. Transaction Code. A one-character alphabetic code, either “A” for add, “C”

for change, or “D” for cancel (delete), to indicate the type of request involved in

the transaction. GEOLOC records normally will not be deleted but will remain

in the database in a canceled status. Selected canceled GEOLOC records can

be deleted after close coordination between the JS-CSOD/JSSC and the record

owner.

5. Specified Geolocation Code. A four-character alphanumeric entry used to

represent the specified geographic location of a location or place at which a

military organization may be located or a location or place of military

significance. This code is assigned by the Joint Staff. The GEOLOC field must

be blank when requesting registration. The location must have a registered

GEOLOC code when requesting a change to data elements of a registered

GEOLOC code or cancellation of a GEOLOC.

6. Geolocation Name (GEONA). A distinguishable and meaningful name with a

maximum of 35 alphanumeric characters that identifies the specified

geographic location of interest (e.g., CP Peary, Ft. Lee, Andrews AFB, Norfolk

NAS). Its use is required in all requests for registration and cancellation.

When a GEONA contains a modifier, the abbreviation for the modifier can be

used in place of the modifier (see Table A-1).

States as contained in reference e.

11. Geographic Coordinates. The 15 alphanumeric characters indicating the

intersecting lines of latitude and longitude determining the coordinate point of

a geographic location. Required in all requests for registration. Coordinates

A-3

Enclosure A

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY

CJCSM 3150.15C

20 November 2009

will be entered in the sequence prescribed by the DOD standard data chain

“Geographic Coordinates, Seconds.” The coordinates for a specified geographic

location should be those reasonably available from a good quality source, e.g.,

Global Positioning System, well-known commercial references such as The

Times Atlas of the World, charts and maps, base or station engineer records,

and celestial or geographic fixes. Although not necessary for general use, the

positions for seconds are included in the field to satisfy those instances

requiring more definitive coordinates. Otherwise, enter zeros in the seconds’

positions.

12. Logistic Planning and Reporting Code. A two-character alphanumeric code

designated to meet the needs of the military logistic community. The code is

described in Enclosure D. The code is assigned by the Joint Staff.

13. Record Status. A one-character alphabetic code indicating the record is

active (“A”) or canceled (“C”) by record owner. If canceled, the GEOLOC records

normally will not be deleted but will remain in the database for historical

purposes. Selected canceled GEOLOCs will be deleted after close coordination

between the JS-CSOD/JSSC and the record owner.

14. Record Owner’s UIC. The six-character alphanumeric code identifying the

reporting organization for a GEOLOC code. The record owner’s UIC

organization is responsible for maintenance of GEOLOC code data. The Joint

Staff will use this field to identify record owners of the data.

15. Prime Geolocation Code (COGEO). A four-character alphanumeric

GEOLOC used to group different installation types at the same location with a

common code. The GEOLOC code assigned to the host or predominant

installation will normally be the Prime Geolocation Code for other installation

type codes registered at that location. For example, the GEOLOC code

assigned for Minot AFB will be the COGEO for all other installation type codes

registered for that location such as administration (ADM), ammunition storage

(AMO), and storage (STG).

16. International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Code. A four-character

code in the GEOFILE used to identify air facilities that may be used for

worldwide airlift operations. The GEOFILE ICAO code includes codes for areas

of the world not listed by the ICAO (i.e., host nation identified code and

USTRANSCOM-created pseudo codes).

17. Geographical Area of Responsibility (GEOAOR) Code. A one-character

numeric code representing the combatant command area in which the

GEOLOC is located. GEOAOR codes are listed in Enclosure E.
