Global Command and Control System-Meteorological and Oceanographic Application

Abstract

This report is one in a series of audits evaluating the effectiveness and efficiency of DoD meteorological and oceanographic support provided by the Military Departments to DoD and other governmental agencies. The Global Command and Control System is the DoD joint command and control system, designed and implemented to provide accurate, complete, and timely information to warfighters. The Global Command and Control System common operational picture correlates and fuses data from numerous sensors and intelligence sources to provide warfighters the situational awareness needed to be able to act and react decisively. The addition of meteorological and oceanographic data to the Global Command and Control System provides an additional capability necessary for commanders to supervise, plan, and manage operations on the battlefield.
