 | Web Services are becoming the standard technology used to share data for many Navy and other DoD operations. These enable an automated capability to obtain and integrate data for data fusion. However assimilation of data from Web-based sources means that differences in schema and terminology prevent simple querying and retrieval of data. Thus, machine understanding of the Web Services interface is necessary for automated selection and invocation of the correct ... |

| This report presents test results from a demonstration of the Automated Change Detection and Classification (ACDC) system, developed by the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) in support of sidescan sonar analysts at the Naval Oceanographic Office. NRL compared the computer-aided change detection capabilities of ACDC with traditional, manual methods of change detection during a naval mine warfare exercise in 2004. Two versions of ACDC (ACDC "Lite" and "Medium") were tested to ... |

| The Digital Memory Unit Writer (DMU) is a ruggedized optical drive assembly built by Honeywell. The DMU writer is used specifically to write specially formatted map data to militarized Aircraft Optical Disks (AOD) for use in the AN/ASQ-l96 Digital Map System (consisting of both a Digital Map Computer and a DMU reader) of both U.S. and ally AV-8B Harrier and F/A-18 Hornet aircraft. The AN/ASQ-196 and its support equipment (including ... |

| Geographical Information Systems (GIS) frequently store positional information in geographic coordinates (i.e., degrees of latitude and longitude). As a result, when GIS data are displayed on a video terminal, it is a usual practice to display the information "un-projected" with the view window x and y axis scaled in decimal degrees with degrees of longitude and latitude having the same scale factor on each axis. While this practice results in ... |

| The issue of spatial database accuracy bas been viewed as critical to the successful implementation and long-term viability of the geographic information system (GIS) technology. In order to improve the spatial querying accuracy and quality, the problems associated with the areas of fuzziness and uncertainty are of great common in the spatial databases. In this paper, we are dedicated to develop an approach that can perform fuzzy spatial querying under ... |

|
| Cockpit digital map displays have long been considered a good situational awareness (SA) tool for the pilot. However, due to limited computational capabilities in tactical aircraft, most cockpit map displays have been limited to the display of digitized paper charts and imagery. One significant problem encountered by tactical aircraft pilots is map display clutter. Important mission planning and real-time overlays are often rendered over the map display during flight. The ... |
