Army Digital Topographic Data Requirements. Volume 4. US Army Specifications for DTD (Digital Topographic Data) Requirements.

Abstract

This report identifies the Army's requirements for terrain analysis, the Analysis Community, and for known and anticipated Army Systems and Programs. This volume is a set of specifications which incorporate the requirements determined as a result of this study. The intent of this volume is to provide to the Defense Mapping Agency (DMA) a single, consolidated, set of specifications that will accommodate the majority of known and anticipated Army requirements. A brief explanation and rationale is provided for each data element required. These specifications provide the vehicle from which DMA and the Army can work toward a final production specification that is both producible by DMA and is capable of supporting Army requirements. Originator keywords: Digital topographic data (DTD), Data base evaluation, Terrain analysis, Army analysis community, Tactical systems, Terrain elevation data; Feature data, Simulation, Training, Test and development, Data content, Data accuracy, Data resolution.
