Description
Summary:Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited === Several training readiness deficiencies were noted during the mobilization of the National Guard roundout brigades in support of Desert Shield/ Storm. One of the areas was the brigade and battalion staff battlefield synchronization skills. National Guard Brigade armories are normally located throughout large geographic areas. Due to the cost and time required to bring all the units to a common training area, this training is conducted only once a year. The problem addressed in this research is to create a visualization tool capable of rendering the Janus combat modeler in a three dimensional environment using scripted files and real time data. The visualization tool must be networked via telephone modems to allow the brigade to conduct unit training while at their home station.
