The Homeland Infrastructure Foundation-Level Database (HIFLD) Working Group is sponsored by the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense. HIFLD was established in February 2002 to address identification, sharing and protection of homeland infrastructure geospatial information to be used for visualization and analysis on all classification domains. HIFLD is a coalition of more than 1,400 members, representing federal, state, and local government organizations and supporting private industry partners. HIFLD brings together geospatial data providers, users and geospatial experts. Within the Homeland Defense and Homeland Security (HD/HLS) mission areas, HIFLD members are involved in a wide range of different functions including Critical Infrastructure Protection, Risk Management, Decision Support, Crisis and Consequence Management, Threat Analysis, Antiterrorism/Force Protection (AT/FP), Defense Support to Civil Authorities (DSCA), Man-Made and Natural Hazard Modeling, Continuity of Operations (COOP) and Continuity of Government (COG) Planning, and Government Facilities Management.
