3) CBRN Situational Awareness
Abstract
To enhance chemical and biological (CB) Situational Awareness, Science & Technology will expand the types of CB threats that can be modeled with hazard assessment capabilities to include those from fixed-wing and rotary-wing drones of interests and allow for airborne CB releases from single drones and swarms to be modeled. Leverage Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies to develop CB focused training and mission rehearsal capabilities that will be integrated into systems widely used by the Joint Force. Modernize hazard modeling capabilities by adopting a modular framework and integrating across Service command and control systems. Enhance hazard modeling by creating a seamless indoor- to-outdoor transport and dispersion (T&D) modeling capability and improve urban T&D modeling to support operations in urban and mixed environments. Leverage new state-of-the-art computational fluid dynamics modeling techniques and their use of computing resources to increase both modeling speed and accuracy. Develop CB health effect modeling software and analytic tools to support force readiness and facilitate medical planning against chemical and biological agents. Develop epidemiological models that quantify and visualize mission operational impacts from exposure to, and spread of, infectious biological threat agents. Leverage Threat Agent Science (TAS) data to enhance modeling health effects and host pathogen interactions from exposures to traditional and non-traditional CB agents, providing the warfighter with more accurate casualty estimates accounting for human health effects.
