Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1984, the Army completed a comprehensive study of the known and anticipated digital terrain data requirements of approximately 75 systems/applications. The Defense Mapping Agency (DMA) recognized this digital topographic data requirement in 1985 and indicated that production against this requirement could begin in the early 1990s, once their MK90 Production System was in place. Since its recognition as an Army requirement, TTD has been the subject of Air Force representatives. In Jul 1986, DMA organized a Joint DOD TTD Working Group to serve as a forum to further refine the overall design and characteristics of TTD to better support the multiplicity of intended uses by joint land combat forces in the future. The Army is actively participating in this working group which is addressing data content, format, media, and other related TDD issues. A prototype TTD specification has been defined and DMA is in the process of producing a 15' x 15'; cell that will be completed by the end of this calendar year. This prototype cell will be distributed to DOD, industry, and universities for evaluation. User documentation and a plan for evaluation of the prototype are currently being prepared.

Download or read book Army Digital Terrain Data Requirements written by Regis J. Orsinger and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tactical Terrain Data (TTD) is comprised of data set similar in content, accuracy and resolution to a Class B, 1:50,000 scale topographic map, a 1:50,000 Tactical Terrain Analysis Data Base, and a Marine Combat Chart. TTD will contain unsynthesized and unsymbolized feature and attribute data plus elevation data. Feature and attribute data will include information about the size, shape, location and height of extracted features. The elevation matrix will contain elevation posts every 30 meters referenced to the World Geodetic System. TTD is considered the Army's operational support data base and will meet most user requirements. Special Terrain Data (STD) is comprised of elevation and feature data sets similar to TTD, but is much more detailed and accurate, being roughly equivalent to a 1:12,500 scale topographic map. The Defense Mapping Agency has recognized Army's need for the TTD product, but indicated that STD would be difficult to produce using current and planned production systems at DMA. Higher resolution STD is still required, but new DMA production solutions are needed. Some possibilities at least on an interim basis, include having an Army user employ TTD as a base to establish geometry, best-fit it to higher resolution source material such as the new generations of multispectral imagery, and extract more dense feature data as required.

Download or read book DIGEST A Primer for the International GIS Standard written by Kelly Chan and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1998-06-25 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DIGEST is the Digital Geographic Information Exchange Standard for interoperability and compatibility among national and multinational systems and users. It is a standard based on the Vector Product Format (VPF), used by NATO and the United States Defense Mapping Agency for capturing geographical data. Finally, there is an aid available to users of Geographical Information System (GIS) and developers of GIS technology working with DIGEST. This book was developed from a series of lectures given by Dr. Kelly Chan, recognized as a leading authority on the standard. It is specifically designed to allow the user to finally make practical use of this difficult material. Dr. Chan's work allows the user to write specific programs tailored to particular needs.
