Accounting for the impacts of terrain and weather is key to identifying potential Courses of Action that mitigate their effects. TSC and CSU propose a convergence of technologies 1) CSU"s prototype engine for estimating locations prone to water ponding, 2) the Army Research Laboratory"s My Weather Impacts Decision Aid (MyWIDA) which already produces weather impact maps and 3) TSC"Petroleum and Water Trace Locator (PAWTL). Being developed for fielding by PM Petroleum and Water Systems (PM-PAWS), the PAWTL performs terrain analysis to support trace planning for the Army"s Assault Hoseline System (AHS), Tactical Water Distribution System (TWDS) and Inland Petroleum Distribution System (IPDS) programs of record. The uniqueness of our approach includes combining a considerable Army investment with other innovative technologies in a packaged, flexible and configurable terrain and weather impacts analysis capability for tactical logistics. In Phase I, TSC and CSU will investigate improvements to the existing PAWTL and ponding engine to provide high fidelity predictions. Our team will develop a MyWIDA insertion strategy, determine requirements for a terrain analysis natural language interface, and define related user and software interfaces. In Phase II, our team will mature the ponding prediction tool and fully integrate it with MyWIDA.
