Fleet METOC Equipment
Abstract
This project provides for the engineering and manufacturing development of sensors, communication interfaces, processing and display meteorological and oceanographic (METOC) equipment. This equipment is designed to provide future mission capabilities for war fighters to measure, ingest, store, process, distribute and display METOC parameters and derived products. This project also exploits new government off-the-shelf/commercial off-the-shelf technologies, tactical sensors and web enablement for the Navy's computer-based tactical shipboard and shore capability used to predict and assess the operational effects of the physical environment on the performance of platforms, weapons and sensor systems. This project includes development of warfare specific mission planning modules to support unmanned systems with integration of data from environmental and tactical sensor systems, model forecast information and Geospatial Information & Services Databases. This project also supports development of autonomous environmental sensing systems for situational awareness and tactical decision aid/mission planner support, as well as iridium and advanced satellite communication integration in METOC sensor, vehicle control and mission planning systems that will be required to achieve Chief of Naval Operation objectives for information dominance and decision superiority. Major emphasis areas include the Meteorological and Oceanographic Future Mission Capabilities (METOC FMC) project, Littoral Battlespace Sensors - Unmanned Undersea Vehicles (LBS-UUV) and the Environmental Satellite Receiver Processor (ESRP) program (comprised of AN/SMQ-11 (sea and shore configuration) and AN/FMQ-17 (shore configuration) systems).
