A Showcase of Visualization Approaches for Military Decision Makers

Abstract

Military command and control systems use a wealth of visualization techniques that are applied to a variety of application domains, including Command and Control, Intelligence, Logistics and Information Operations. Recognizing this variety, the TTCP C3I Action Group on Information Visualization has conducted a survey of visualization techniques and approaches used in allied command and control systems or being examined as applied R&D activities. A knowledge-based of these techniques C3I-Vis has been developed. A presentation of some of the showcased examples contained in C3I-Vis is proposed as a way of stimulating discussion for the workshop. The presentation will highlight good examples of current practices and state of the art approaches, including visual approaches, information representations, user interaction and customization.
