GCCS Spatial Data Base Module

Abstract

The Global Command and Control Systems (GCCS) is the DoD's primary joint command, control, communications, computer, and intelligence systems. The Joint Mapping Toolkit (JMTK) provides the mapping function to the Core Operating Environment (COE) of the GCCS. JMTK is divided into three primary areas: (1) Visual, (2) Analysis (non-visual), and (3) Spatial Data Base (SDBM). The primary objective of the SDBM effort is to define, design, develop and test mapping, charting and geodesy (MC&G) spatial data base management and data access software for the inclusion as the SDBM of the GCCS COE JMTK. The SDBM contains the following capabilities: import NIMA data in standard formats (VPF, RPF, DTED, lTD); archive NIMA data in the original format without reformatting any data (preprocessing); and provide data access and retrieval through the use of public API functions.
