Intelligence is a joint function that serves to provide information, assessments, and estimates to the commanders and their staff to support situational understanding and enable decision-making. Global Integrated Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (GIISR) is one of the Air Force's Core Functions. ISR is an activity that synchronizes and integrates the planning and operation of sensors, assets, processing, exploitation, and dissemination (PED) systems, and analytic systems or capabilities directly support current and future intelligence operations. The Air Force Deputy Chief of Staff for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (AF/A2) is responsible for policy formulation, planning, evaluation, oversight, and leadership of United States Air Force (USAF) global integrated ISR.
