CRAFT ONE · GEOSPATIAL INTELLIGENCE

Foundation GEOINT Services

From geodetic ground truth to human geography — data, products, and analysis across the foundation domains that let commanders, analysts, and diplomats trust every coordinate on the map.

  • Geodesy · elevation · precise imagery
  • Human, political & topographic geography
  • Research, custom products & modernization

CRAFT TWO · PROGRAM MANAGEMENT

Governed Program Delivery

PMBOK-grounded program and project management that turns federal requirements into governed, measurable outcomes — stewardship, tailored delivery, and proactive risk management across the full lifecycle.

  • Initiating → Planning → Executing
  • Monitoring & Controlling → Closing
  • Value-delivery orientation, end to end

FOUNDATION GEOINT · GEOMATICS

GROUND
TRUTH.

Measure the World. Model Every Point.

Geomatics is the collection of sciences and tradecraft that measures and models the globe — 3D accuracy for every point in, on, or above the Earth. Ironclad brings that discipline to surveys, elevation, and positioning support for federal missions.

SERVICE LINES · FOUNDATION DOMAINS

SIX DOMAINS.
ONE FOUNDATION.

  1. Geodetic Surveys
  2. Elevation Data & Modeling
  3. Precise Imagery & Photogrammetry
  4. Human Geography
  5. Political Geography
  6. Topographic Feature Production

01

Geodetic Surveys

High-accuracy geodetic and geophysical ground-truth data and analysis: astronomic positioning and azimuth, gravity and magnetic observation, LiDAR, deflection of the vertical, and precise leveling.

  • Airfield & terminal surveys (TAGGS-class)
  • Assured positioning, navigation & timing support
  • Survey technical expertise for test & calibration ranges

02

Elevation Data & Modeling

Digital elevation models across every resolution class — DTED and high-resolution terrain elevation — with bare-earth and reflective datasets that let planners see the ground as it truly lies.

  • 3D & 4D terrain products for mission planning
  • Bare-earth / reflective surface modeling
  • Elevation repositories & data services

03

Precise Imagery & Photogrammetry

Accurate, timely global imagery and photogrammetric products — controlled ortho-mosaics and mono-orthorectified imagery — with exploitation, accuracy improvement, and evaluation services.

  • Controlled regional ortho-mosaic production
  • Imagery accuracy improvement & evaluation
  • Photogrammetric analysis & QA

04

Human Geography

Insight into population segments and collective identities — ethnic, religious, linguistic, political — and the community systems people depend on: health, education, economy, water, energy, and cultural heritage.

  • Populated-places & population frameworks
  • Community-systems mapping
  • Stability analysis for planners & policymakers

05

Political Geography

Authoritative geographic names and boundaries — international land and maritime boundaries, administrative divisions, and claimed maritime limits — supporting diplomacy and freedom of navigation.

  • Geographic-names data & standards
  • Land, maritime & administrative boundaries
  • High-resolution shoreline datasets

06

Topographic Feature Production

Topographic data, maps, and feature databases delineating natural and man-made features — relative positions, elevations, geographic names, and boundaries — for any place on Earth.

  • Topographic map & feature production
  • Feature databases & extraction workflows
  • Standards-driven cartography

IMAGERY · PEOPLE · BOUNDARIES

THE HUMAN
TERRAIN.

Every Layer Tells the Mission Something.

Precise imagery is only the base. Over it, Ironclad builds the layers that decisions ride on — who lives there, what sustains them, where authority begins and ends — so operations read the environment, not just the picture.

NON-COMBATANT EVACUATION OPERATIONS SUPPORT (NEO) & CONTINGENCY OPERATIONS

Ready Before the Order Comes.

Current foundation GEOINT product listings, 3D terrain, and custom map products for non-combatant evacuation sites and contingency operations worldwide — built on the national "Listing of Products" model that spans 600+ NEO sites across 189 countries.

GOVERNED
DELIVERY.

Value delivery is the orientation; the lifecycle is the route. Ironclad manages federal programs the way missions are run — chartered, planned, executed, measured, and closed clean.

01 · INITIATING

Authority Before Action

Charters, mission alignment, and stakeholder identification — no work begins without defined authority and intent.

02 · PLANNING

The Map Precedes the March

Scope, schedule, cost, and risk registers — a tailored delivery approach fitted to the mission, not the template.

03 · EXECUTING

Disciplined Delivery

Team leadership, quality assurance, and meaningful stakeholder engagement while the work is in motion.

04 · MONITORING & CONTROLLING

Measure, Then Move

Earned value, variance analysis, and proactive risk response — course corrections made on evidence, early.

05 · CLOSING

Missions End Clean

Transition, knowledge capture, and benefits realization — outcomes delivered, documented, and durable.
