Army Field-Oriented S&T Experimentation Venues: A Comparative Analysis

Authors: Henry J Girolamo; ARMY NATICK SOLDIER RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT AND ENGINEERING CENTER MA
Abstract:
This report describes a survey that provided detailed information on experimental venues and sites that support US Army science and technology (S&T). In February 2010, the Office of the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Research and Technology (Army) (DAS(R&T)) directed the Natick Soldier Research Development and Engineering Center (NSRDEC) to conduct the survey to inform the S&T community of possible experimentation venues, capabilities, costs, and restrictions to help the S&T community understand where to go for experimental needs and to match the venue to the requirement. General direction on where to initiate the survey came from a collection of experimental venues and sites listed by the Research Development and Engineering Command (RDECOM) contacts within Army. The detailed information on experimental venues came from written questionnaires, phone interviews with Venue points of contact (POCs), and website reviews. The report results will provide Army S&T managers with a resource for field experiment planning.
