Building an Experimental Joint Battlespace Infosphere (YJBI-CB)

Abstract

Targeting can be more complicated than just locating a facility or military column. If the target is suspected of having chemical weapons, weather forecasters and armament experts need to work cooperatively to decide how to disable the target without creating chemical fallout that endangers non-combatants or friendly forces. However, this collaboration is complicated by the fact that Air Operation Center's (AOC) functional units are often spatially distributed and have "hard-wired" communication lines. Additionally, previous combat situations have shown that missions may change during the conflict. This condition may necessitate a change in information dissemination patterns to route information to new users that previously did not require it. The Joint Battlespace Infosphere (JBI) provides the flexible conduit to dynamically handle these changes in information needs.
