dc.description.abstractThe Army Terrestrial Modeling and Intelligence System, ARTEMIS, research program focused on developing innovative methods of fusing weather data from authoritative sources with geospatial content and services to fill a number of identified Army capability gaps. The tools developed within the ARTEMIS research program can support operations anywhere in the world, supporting Army Global Land Operation’s needs. We overcame technology challenges that limited the use of gridded weather products and digital terrain products with Army tactical decision aids, providing relevancy to the impacts of weather and terrain on military operations beyond the current methods of delivering weather impacts on the battlefield via PowerPoint briefings. The project benefited from the recent availability of higher-resolution global soil texture, digital elevation models, and land use and land cover datasets provided by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. Teams working on the ARTEMIS research program developed tools and capabilities that integrated weather digital products into the Army Geospatial Enterprise–compliant systems to deliver fused all-weather and all-season military decision aids (e.g., maneuver, austere entry, sensor performance, and other typical terrain analysis tasks) in a method that supports risk-based assessments.en_US
