Application of geographic information systems in Computer Assisted Exercise (CAX)
Journal Title: Security and Defence Quarterly - Year 2014, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
This paper shows a model for applying geographic information system (GIS) in the Computer Assisted Exercise through the ESRI Company's ArcReader program of the ArcGIS 10 application. The ArcReader program provides access to digital spatial data outside the GIS cabinet with licensed GIS software. The importance of using modern GIS applications within the decision making process is outlined and there is analysis of the plot of land as part of the intelligence preparation of the battlefield.
