An Operational Dynamic Situational Assessment Capability
Abstract
The primary objective of the Dynamic Situation Assessment and Prediction (DSAP) infrastructure is to allow Commanders and their staff at Air Operations Centers the ability to perform what-if analysis of plans and alternatives on-the-fly while continuing augmenting the real-time picture sensor inputs with simulated state-estimated assessments. Enhancements to current DSAP Framework and software infrastructure were made to provide dynamic situational awareness and an improved predictive capability that can be applied to an operational setting. RAM integrated the DSAP Multiple Replication Framework utilizing Joint Semi-Automated Forces (JSAF) with real-time databases and data link simulation provided by Theater Battle Management Core System (TBMCS) and other C41 (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Intelligence) systems. RAM compared a real-time simulation with a simulation calibrated by real-time-picture inputs from TBMCS and integrated the current predictive analysis capability with the dynamic situational awareness capability for improved calibration of predictive inputs. They implemented interfaces between DSAP components that allow its use in a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). This infrastructure will allow commanders to dynamically evaluate and assess the situation in a timely fashion, incorporate prediction in real-time via faster than real-time simulation, support real-time dynamic planning to address targets of opportunity and support a SOA.
