MOVEMENT TRACKING SYSTEM (MTS)

Abstract

Movement Tracking System (MTS) is a satellite based, asset visibility and situational awareness enabler that assists Combat Support/Combat Service Support (CS/CSS) commanders and their staffs. MTS identifies and tracks the location of vehicles, communicates with vehicle operators, and redirects missions on a worldwide, near real-time basis during peacetime operations and war. MTS provides the capability to link ground level operators conducting missions and commanders/managers that plan, direct, and control operations and allows for continuous CS/CSS asset visibility across the tactical area of operations. FY08/09 funding supported development of block modifications on the MTS. This block modification will develop and test interfaces to the Transportation Coordinator's Automated Information for Movement System (TC AIMS II) and Global Combat Support System-Army (GCCS-Army). FY12 funding continues interface development & testing. There is no FY13 Base or OCO funding for this project. The MTS program is being converged into the PM FBCB2 Joint Battle Command-Platform (JBC-P), as 'JBC-P Log'.
