Digital Data Digest, Volume 5, Number 2, Fall 1996. Army and NIMA Work with Warfighters to Evaluate High-Resolution Digital Terrain Data Bases

Abstract

High-resolution terrain data took a step out of Virtual Reality into reality during the Operational Warfighter Evaluation conducted at Fort Benning, Ga., July 16-18, 1996. This exercise brought together Army, Marine Corps and Special Operations experts to hike, climb, and crawl through the cinder-block buildings of the McKenna Military Operations on Urban Terrain (MOUT) site and then compare what they experienced to special high-resolution terrain data and computer-generated synthetic environments designed to support dismounted infantry operations in urban terrain.
