STE One World Terrain (OWT)

Abstract

One World Terrain (OWT) is one of three core functions of the Synthetic Training Environment-Information Systems (STE-IS). OWT provides a 3D global terrain capability and associated information services that support virtual replication of the physical Earth and complexities of the operational environment in support Multi-Domain Operations (MDO) and training at the Point of Need (PoN). OWT will enable leaders, Soldiers, and units to train in complex operational environments, such as dense urban, woodland, jungle, desert, and subterranean areas before the first fight begins. Capabilities developed by OWT automatically process raw terrain data into a well-formed format that is editable and consumable by standard commercial tools and technologies. It provides the tools to incorporate approved geospatial information updates and local terrain surveys into the OWT foundational repository and will be used by STE and tactical applications. In FY 2021, OWT adopted the Software Acquisition Pathway employed by the STE-IS program that is tailored for software intensive systems. OWT plans to facilitate rapid and iterative delivery of its capabilities through integration with STE-IS Minimal Viable Products (MVP) and Minimum Viable Capability releases (MVCR) that support Squad (Sq) through Brigade (Bde) level training until 4QFY2023. FY 2023 Base RDTE dollars in the amount of $1.387 million for OWT will support completion of prototype development and integration with the TSS/TMT portion of the STE-IS, and remaining cybersecurity compliance testing. The OWT requirements are codified in the STE-IS abbreviated Capabilities Development Document (A-CDD) version 2, approved 2 June 2020.
