Produktbeschreibung
Any National Defense Force secures the sovereignty of a nation and has a responsibility to ensure mission success by controlling key terrain areas. Accurate geospatial information is crucial for such purpose. Command-post best site selection is one of the basic tasks among various military operations, as it helps to control the key terrain for battlefield operations or other military activities. To understand the ground and to achieve military goals, the basic sources of information are topographic maps, aerial photographs, military sketches and sand model. But manually combining those information is very tricky, time-consuming, costly and results vary from expert to expert. This book presents a study in one particular area in Ethiopia which provides decision makers and commanders to analyze the terrain visually using web-based GIS system to obtain correct information about the terrain and evaluate the ground in terms of military requirements for command-post site selection.
