Fulda Gap Video Disc - A Tactical Decision.

Abstract

My presentation describes a video disc based system which was developed to demonstrate potential applications as a tactical decision aid. It covers the creation of the video disc containing data for the Fluda Gap area of Germany, the system for exploitation of the disc, and the potential uses of the stored data which have been demonstrated. An evaluation of results to date and future plans is included. The Fluda Gap Video Disc contains a total of 41,700 frames of separate images. The order of the image groupings is: Map Legends, Topographic Maps, Aerial Photography, Factor Overlays, Ground Photography, Three-Dimensional Terrain Scenes, Organizational Diagrams and Weapons System Diagrams and Photographs.
