The Open Ocean Operational Environment

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to define a standard operational environment for the open ocean and air space above that will be used as a basis for the comparative analyses that form a principle part of the ANVCE program. While every effort has been made to develop environmental definitions that are reasonably representative, it is the comparative basis that is the key issue, and definitions have been chosen so that they will relate in a simple manner to performance and operability information likely to be available to the investigating teams. It is intended that this standard environment be used for all studies concerned with open ocean operation.
