70 -- MISSION PLANNING SYSTEM POC Ms. Gayle Grant, ATTN: AMSEL-RD-C2-SPO, (908)544-3928. This is a market survey to identify existing mission planning/rehearsal systems. On February 24, 1995, the Director, Army Digitization Office and the TRADOC, Deputy Chief of Staff, Combat Developers directed a joint CECOM-Team Fort Monmouth and Battle Command Battle Lab (BCBL) effort to integrate Battlefield Visualization efforts and establish Army requirements for the digitized battlefield. To accomplish this C2SID is conducting an assessment of current mission planning/rehearsal system functionality, demonstrating functionality to users, and developing an integrated prototype for user validation. The proposed system should support planning, rehearsal, execution and monitoring of the battlefield. The proposed system requirements include, as a minimum, accept multiple terrain and imagery database inputs (DMA standard, satellite imagery, high altitude/UAV photography); display accurate terrain representation (2D/3D dynamic perspective with drive through/flythrough) and the ability to overlay grid, obstacles, annotation and features; scaleable by echelon (higher echelon low resolution/large area, lower echelon high resolution/smaller area); interoperable with Command and Control systems, simulations and simulators; and capability of displaying operational graphics overlaid upon background map and/or imagery to include, but not limited to, courses of action development/selection, red/blue force geolocations/status, footprinting, battlefield obscurants to include smoke, fog and weather. Firms wishing to participate in this survey should send a written description, characteristics, and a statement stating the respondent can, in fact, supply the Army with the hardware and software necessary to assess current system functionality. Requests should be sent to Director, U.S. Army Command/Control Systems Integration Directorate, ATTN: AMSEL-RD-C2-SPO, Ms. Gayle Grant, Fort Monmouth, NJ 07703-5000 no later than fifteen (15) days after publication of this notice. Telephone number is (908)544-3928. This synopsis is for informational and planning purposes only, does not constitute a solicitation, and is not to be construed as a commitment by the government.
