TOPOGRAPHICAL, IMAGE INTEL & SPACE

Abstract

This program element (PE) investigates, evaluates, and matures military engineering technologies. This effort provides research for managing, transforming, updating, improving, and disseminating extremely large volumes of terrain and weather effects data at, or near, real-time and dynamic analysis and reasoning of this data to enable future force command and control systems by providing superior knowledge of the battlespace terrain and environment. Work in this project significantly enhances the Army's spatial-temporal data analysis, management and dissemination capabilities. Efforts include developing logical and conceptual models to support Civil Military Operations (CMO), and examining unification of Geospatial Intelligence with environmental and emerging cultural geographical information requirements associated with CMO by extending geospatial tools support to military decision making within stability operation environment. The cited work is consistent with the Director, Defense Research and Engineering Strategic Plan, the Army Modernization Strategy, and the Army Science and Technology Master Plan. This work is fully coordinated with and complementary to efforts funded in PE 0601102A, Project 52C and PE 0602784A, Project H71. The work in this project is performed by the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center, Vicksburg, MS.
