Training Assessment and Modeling Subjective Data Encapsulation for the National Training Center.
Abstract
The National Training Center (NTC) located at Fort Irwin, California performs the critical Army mission of preparing battalion task forces and brigade staffs for combat. The NTC provides a unique opportunity to assess training proficiency. To assist in the training assessment of rotating units, the Army has spent millions of dollars on a state of the art instrumentation system that transmits objective data from all player vehicles and stores the information in a database. Currently, no subjective observer-controller (O/C) observations of training are stored in the database. The primary emphasis of this research is to develop a training assessment system and model subjective data encapsulation to enhance training performance analysis. The assessment system is designed to be incorporated into a relational database that will allow analysis of various measures of performance that provide input for platoon through brigade level After Action Reviews (AAR). Additionally, the database will support methods for simple data manipulation for the purpose of conducting post-rotation analysis and the identification of trends.
