Development of the Training Use Distribution Model (TUDM) Software

Abstract

This technical note describes the technology choices and software development of the Training Use Distribution Model (TUDM). TUDM provides the ability to predict the spatial distribution and intensity of off-road maneuver training miles, which in turn provides disturbance data for ecological models, such as the Ecological Dynamics Simulation model (EDYS) (Guertin, Rewerts, and Dubois 1998). TUDM is one of three land conservation models chosen for prototype development in the Land Management System (LMS) Initiative. In keeping with LMS requirements "the user environment was developed based on a combination of marketplace standards (commercial-off-the-shelf browsers, Java, windows, etc.) to ensure its portability and to increase its natural maturation" (Goran et al. 1999).
