Digital Mapping, Charting, and Geodesy Analysis Program Technical Review of Vector Smart Map (VMap) Level 1

Abstract

The Naval Research Laboratory's Digital Mapping, Charting, and Geodesy Analysis Program (DMAP), in an effort to ensure that naval requirements are being met, has performed a technical review of the specification for Vector Smart Map (VMap) Level 1, as directed by the Defense Mapping Agency (DMA) via the Oceanographer of the Navy. VMap, a DMA product formatted in Vector Product Format, will eventually provide users with an excellent source of medium- resolution map data in digital form. Considering only the written specifications, DMAP discovered errors that could hinder not only the production of authentic VMap database libraries but also the user comprehension as well. DMAP emphasizes that essential changes should be made before prototype production begins. Minor suggested changes are also given. DMAP, DMA, VMap
