This dataset, released by DoD, contains geographic information for major installations, ranges, and training areas in the United States and its territories. This release integrates site information about DoD installations, training ranges, and land assets in a format which can be immediately put to work in commercial geospatial information systems. Homeland Security/Homeland Defense, law enforcement, and readiness planners will benefit from immediate access to DoD site location data during emergencies. Land use planning and renewable energy planning will also benefit from use of this data. Users are advised that the point and boundary location datasets are intended for planning purposes only, and do not represent the legal or surveyed land parcel boundaries.

The purpose of this agreement is for SSA to verify the SSNs and other identifying information, and confirm citizenship information to the Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC) of the Department of Defense. DMDC will use the data provided by SSA to validate the identity of individuals entering or serving in the Armed Forces and to identify potential enlistees and members of the military who are aliens or non-citizens.

Specialized database that focuses on Homeland Security and terrorism topics across all government and military branches, including international relations, political science, criminology, defense, aeronautics and space flight, communications, civil engineering, and more.

United States US: Military Expenditure data was reported at 609.758 USD bn in 2017. This records an increase from the previous number of 600.106 USD bn for 2016. United States US: Military Expenditure data is updated yearly, averaging 277.591 USD bn from Sep 1960 (Median) to 2017, with 58 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 711.338 USD bn in 2011 and a record low of 45.380 USD bn in 1960. United States US: Military Expenditure data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s United States – Table US.World Bank.WDI: Defense and Official Development Assistance. Military expenditures data from SIPRI are derived from the NATO definition, which includes all current and capital expenditures on the armed forces, including peacekeeping forces; defense ministries and other government agencies engaged in defense projects; paramilitary forces, if these are judged to be trained and equipped for military operations; and military space activities. Such expenditures include military and civil personnel, including retirement pensions of military personnel and social services for personnel; operation and maintenance; procurement; military research and development; and military aid (in the military expenditures of the donor country). Excluded are civil defense and current expenditures for previous military activities, such as for veterans' benefits, demobilization, conversion, and destruction of weapons. This definition cannot be applied for all countries, however, since that would require much more detailed information than is available about what is included in military budgets and off-budget military expenditure items. (For example, military budgets might or might not cover civil defense, reserves and auxiliary forces, police and paramilitary forces, dual-purpose forces such as military and civilian police, military grants in kind, pensions for military personnel, and social security contributions paid by one part of government to another.); ; Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), Yearbook: Armaments, Disarmament and International Security.; ; Data for some countries are based on partial or uncertain data or rough estimates.

The dataset depicts the authoritative boundaries of the most commonly known Department of Defense (DoD) sites, installations, ranges, and training areas in the United States and Territories. These sites encompass land which is federally owned or otherwise managed. This dataset was created from source data provided by the four Military Service Component headquarters and was compiled by the Defense Installation Spatial Data Infrastructure (DISDI) Program within the Office of the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Installations and Environment, Business Enterprise Integration Directorate. Sites were selected from the 2010 Base Structure Report (BSR), a summary of the DoD Real Property Inventory. This list does not necessarily represent a comprehensive collection of all Department of Defense facilities, and only those in the fifty United States and US Territories were considered for inclusion. For inventory purposes, installations are comprised of sites, where a site is defined as a specific geographic location of federally owned or managed land and is assigned to military installation. DoD installations are commonly referred to as a base, camp, post, station, yard, center, homeport facility for any ship, or other activity under the jurisdiction, custody, control of the DoD.

The United States Military Installations database contains the boundaries and location information for important military installations in the United States and Puerto Rico. The database includes records for 405 military installations.

Purpose

To provide graphic representation, location and attribute data for analysis, modeling and simulation, and studies. CLOSURE, REALIGN, and BRAC columns are from the office of Economic Adjustment and OSD websites at http://www.oea.gov , https://www.denix.osd.mil .

The Military Bases dataset was last updated on October 23, 2024 and are defined by Fiscal Year 2023 data, from the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Energy, Installations, and Environment and is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). The dataset depicts the authoritative locations of the most commonly known Department of Defense (DoD) sites, installations, ranges, and training areas world-wide. These sites encompass land which is federally owned or otherwise managed. This dataset was created from source data provided by the four Military Service Component headquarters and was compiled by the Defense Installation Spatial Data Infrastructure (DISDI) Program within the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Energy, Installations, and Environment. Only sites reported in the BSR or released in a map supplementing the Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act of 2018 (FIRRMA) Real Estate Regulation (31 CFR Part 802) were considered for inclusion. This list does not necessarily represent a comprehensive collection of all Department of Defense facilities. For inventory purposes, installations are comprised of sites, where a site is defined as a specific geographic location of federally owned or managed land and is assigned to military installation. DoD installations are commonly referred to as a base, camp, post, station, yard, center, homeport facility for any ship, or other activity under the jurisdiction, custody, control of the DoD. While every attempt has been made to provide the best available data quality, this data set is intended for use at mapping scales between 1:50,000 and 1:3,000,000. For this reason, boundaries in this data set may not perfectly align with DoD site boundaries depicted in other federal data sources. Maps produced at a scale of 1:50,000 or smaller which otherwise comply with National Map Accuracy Standards, will remain compliant when this data is incorporated. Boundary data is most suitable for larger scale maps; point locations are better suited for mapping scales between 1:250,000 and 1:3,000,000. If a site is part of a Joint Base (effective/designated on 1 October, 2010) as established under the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure process, it is attributed with the name of the Joint Base. All sites comprising a Joint Base are also attributed to the responsible DoD Component, which is not necessarily the pre-2005 Component responsible for the site. A data dictionary, or other source of attribute information, is accessible at https://doi.org/10.21949/1529039

USCG Direct Access system distributes demographic data to the DoD Defence Manpower Data Center (DMDC).

The majority of the DoD’s UXO detection and discrimination technology development efforts in the past have focused on terrestrial (land-based) areas that were used for testing and training. DoD munitions testing and training operations, as well as past disposal operations, also have been conducted in marine, estuarine, and other underwater environments. Potential human contact with underwater ordnance at or near these sites can include direct contact when swimming, diving, wading, or through indirect contact like anchoring, fishing, or dredging. Site-specific factors such as water depth, turbidity, temperature, tidal actions, currents, storms, and bottom conditions present unique challenges that can significantly hinder the use of conventional UXO technologies at underwater sites. The database includes information on site locations and ranges, environmental conditions, munitions reported or suspected, and other site attribute information. The majority of the sites are formerly used ranges (Formerly Used Defense Sites [FUDS]), but the database also includes Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) Sites, and active ranges. We focused on compiling data for sites within the United States or under the control of the DoD in some capacity. During our review of sites, we also compiled listings of international sites of concern. These include a loosely compiled set of sites from the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Japan, Russia, Estonia, and Serbia and Montenegro.To use the database, Microsoft Access must be installed

Satellite images archived in KuDA are derived from either the NOAA or the Dept of Defense polar orbiting weather satellites. This dataset contains images that are derived from the Department of Defense's polar orbiting weather satellites. The Department of Defense's DMSP (Defense Meteorological Satellite Program) had three satellites transmitting during 1991 (F8, F9, & F10). These satellites carry a sensor called the Operational Line Scanner (OLS) which is the one source of images for KuDA (the other source of images is NOAA's AVHRR). The OLS is a two-channel sensor with a broadband visible channel and an IR channel. Data are in TDF and .TAR format.

Military Facilities. The dataset contains locations and attributes of Military Facilities, created as part of the DC Geographic Information System (DC GIS) for the D.C. Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO) and participating D.C. government agencies. Information researched by the DC Office of the Chief Technology Officer identified Military Facilities and DC GIS staff geo-processed the data.

The VIERS Military History service provides Veteran military history information that is consolidated across multiple data sources. This consolidated data is provided as part of the VRM initiative to improve the speed, accuracy and efficiency with which information is exchanged between Veterans and VA. This information is exposed to the VIERS Consumers via a SOAP based web service. It queries the VA/DoD Identity Repository (VADIR) and Corporate Database (CorpDB) repositories to retrieves electronic copies of military service information including periods of service, periods of captivity, and military pay. The VRM VIERS Military History Service also provides the capability to update the VA data repositories with unverified periods of service and unverified periods of captivity. Service provides a view of all military history to date(historical, current, retirement, Line of Duty/WII) for a partiular person such as branch, entry dates, separation dates, discharge characters. Provide definitive view of Veterans Military Service Information- Read access to veteran military service information (electronic DD-214/215)- Current member DoD affiliation status and information (Active duty, Guard/Reserve, Retired, Dependent)- DoD Eligibility and Entitlement (Insurance, Education)- DFAS Military Payments (severance, separation, retirement)- Supports submission by veterans of supplemental evidence of service (Vietnam Era)- Medals, awards

This dataset displays the number of active duty personnel and their location, by country. Included in these figures are the numbers for Army, Navy, Marine, and Air Force branches of the United States Military. Note: this data includes rounded figures for personnel involved in Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF)and Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF). This data was collected from the department of Defense directly at: http://siadapp.dmdc.osd.mil/personnel/MILITARY/history/hst0706.pdf .

This is a database and accompanying report first appearing on a google drive link shared by Attorney Thomas Renz of Renz Law with the Epoch Times as well as embedded into Thomas Renz' website.

According to DHA's Armed Forces Surveillance Division, the data in this database is incorrect for the years 2016-2020. (Watson, 2022)

DMED is a web tool to query medical event data contained within the Defense Medical Surveillance System. The AFHSD claims that due to a serious error in their system, data between the years of 2016-2020 has been incredibly under-reported which has lead to the appearance of a significant increase of occurrences of medical diagnoses in 2021. (Watson 2022)

The world has become much more peaceful, and yet, even after adjusting for inflation, global military spending is now three times greater than at the height of the Cold War. These developments have motivated a renewed interest from both policy makers and scholars about the drivers of military spending and the implications that follow. Existing findings on the relationship between threat and arming and arms races and war hinge on the completeness and accuracy of existing military spending data. Moreover, data on military spending is used to measure important concepts from international relations such as the distribution of power, balancing, the severity of states’ military burdens, and arms races. Everything we know about which states are most powerful, whether nations are balancing, and whether military burdens and arms races are growing more or less severe rests on the accuracy of existing military spending estimates.
