An Evolutionary Approach for Implementing a Large Multi-User Terrain Data Base Through an Interactive System for Terrain Perspective Simulation In-Steps Program.

Abstract

The primary motivation of the study described herein was to provide digitized terrain data to be used in support of Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) related problems. Present day data bases are not convenient for the Rome Air Development Center's (RADC) electromagnetic prediction and modelling needs for the design and study of present and future weapon and support systems. Rather than design a system strictly for EMC needs, as has been done in the past in many areas, this technical report describes an approach for developing a multi-user digital terrain data base by using existing governmental computer aids.
