Military Mission Planning in 3D
Overview
Currently, mission planners rely on things like conventional military maps, road maps, aerial photographs and remote sensing images to scope out their operations. But these 2D tools cannot deliver mission-critical 3D data: Does that city block contain two story shops or ten story factories? Can our troops scale that next wall? How many windows face the street from the target building? Without a 3D perspective, some of the most important mission information is unknown until the mission team is "on the ground."
Access to 3D data has never been the problem. 3D attributes are commonly found in GIS databases, and other forms of 3D data are readily available in both the public and private domain. The problem has always been the lack of tools that can quickly process this data into meaningful 3D content for mission planning.
