Defense Installations, Ranges and Training Areas Information System (DIRT)

Abstract

The initial Tasking Summary for the Defense Training and Performance Data Center (TPDC) documented the need for a consolidated, automated source of data on training installations and ranges. Based on this need, development commenced for an automated information system comprised of defense installations, weapons training ranges, unit training areas, unit training facilities, and associated requirements and standards data. This report documents the development of the Land Warfare module of the Defense Installations, Ranges, and Training Areas (DIRT) Information System to its operational stage. The Defense Installations, Ranges, and Training Areas Information System supports Offices of the Secretary of Defense, training system planners, unit commanders in the military services, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff along with the Unified Commands. Keywords: Installations; Ranges; Training areas; Information system.
