Operations and Maintenance Support for the CTC Archive: Guide to Using the Battle Damage Assessment (BDA) Database.

Abstract

The purpose or this document is to describe a method of accessing the Battle Damage Assessment (BDA) data collected at the Combat Training Centers (CTC). These data are archived at the Army Research Institute Presidio of Monterey Field Unit (ARI-POM). They are available to those researchers and analysts who have been granted access through CAC-T to the archive. The BDA data are collected at each of the three Combat Training Centers and sent to ARI-POM. This document uses the Structured Query Language (SQL) interface to the data in the database. The intent is not to teach the use of SQL, but use it as an instrument to teach the user the schema and relationships of the BDA data. This document addresses understanding the BDA tables and the data within.
