Oceanographic Data Issues for Support of Navy Fleet Synthetic Training

Abstract

In order to gain efficiencies throughout the fleet training cycle and conserve fuel, the Navy is in the process of increasing its use of synthetic training technologies. Maximum training value and increased readiness result from the most realistic training possible, which must include a robust and realistic physical environment. Commander, Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command (CNMOC) will be providing meteorological and oceanographic data and expertise to enhance Fleet Synthetic Training (FST) events. This paper describes the issues associated with inserting operational data into modeling and simulation training events.
