Method for Constructing Three-Dimensional Display Model on Battlefield Situation Awareness

Enhanced battlefield visualization for situation awareness

We present tools to visualize density, clustering, and lethality assessment that help a military commander achieve situation awareness (SA) on the battlefield. For the density computation, we provide a geometry-based, image-based, and hybrid approach to tackle the problem. We choose proximity-based clustering as a suitable definition for our application. Based on this clustering definition, we ...

Aviation Display Support for Situation Awareness

Architectures for Distributed Information Fusion To Support Situation Awareness on the Digital Battlefield

Future military battlefield systems, exemplified by the US Army’s Future Combat System initiative, are characterized by the extensive use of mobile sensing systems, unmanned platforms, and decision aiding systems at the lowest levels of the combat force. The effective deployment, control, and exploitation of these capabilities will require the ability to form real-time situational awareness for...

"The Event Model" for Situation Awareness

The Event Model (TEM) is a novel computation-independent model targeted at helping non-programmers to define and manage the logic of event-driven applications. The model design is based on a collection of building blocks that comprise a set of diagrams and normalized tables to define the event business logic of an application, a set of principles that define the set of assertions that a correct...

Situations for Situation Awareness

This paper explores the relationship between Situation Awareness, Common Operating Pictures and Data Fusion to expose the need for Situation and Impact Assessments. A framework for Situation Assessments is then proposed and illustrated through reference to footage from the movie, “The Hunt for Red October”
