Title: Systems to Track Animal Movement


Last Updated: 8/20/2021 11:51:38 AM

Previous SEL Number: 16AD-03-TSYS

Description: Systems, including application software as well as integrated hardware, used for the implementation of an Animal Identification System that supports the acquisition, integration and dissemination of data and imagery used to locate and track the movement of animals. Animal Identification systems may contain modules supporting geospatial information, decision support, modeling, and other related functions, or may interface with other systems containing those capabilities (see 04AP-03-GISS, 04AP-04-RISK, 04AP-05-CDSS).

This functionality may also be obtainable via subscription as a cloud-based service using a web browser interface or a mobile app, as opposed to purchasing software. However, special security considerations apply for data stored remotely. See 04AP-11-SAAS for further information.

ImportantFeatures: May include modules for Geospatial Analysis, which allows for association of intelligence and location-based information to perform complex analysis and visualization; Decision Support, which provides a mechanism to deliver actionable intelligence, supporting strategic and tactical operations; Situational Awareness, which supports a common operational picture with near real-time intelligence fused with geospatial information fully describing the area of operations in a spatial context; Monitoring, including tracking, weather, traffic, assets, environment, damage assessments, disease surveillance; Modeling, which combines complex spatial information and applies modeling tools to predict consequences of events in support of planning, mitigation, response and recovery; and Reporting capabilities for activity, after-action, alert-warning, location, situation, and coverage portrayal.

Operating Considerations: Systems should be operational during normal animal industry activities and not be for the exclusive use during disease outbreaks.
Use must be consistent with the Foreign Animal Disease Preparedness and Response Plan (FADPReP)/National Animal Health Emergency Management System (NAHEMS).
