Charles River participated in the annual Prairie Warrior exercise at the Battle Command Battle Lab at Ft. Leavenworth May 9-10. At the technology showcase held the week preceding the actual exercise, Charles River demonstrated the FOX Course of Action (COA) Generator and Planner and its integration with the Military Activity Viewing Environment (MAVEN) battlefield visualizer.
The FOX Course of Action Generating Tool uses genetic algorithms to explore possible COAs. MAVEN provides battlefield visualization and editing functionality including the animation of COA simulations, a centralized scenario state allowing simultaneous access by multiple viewers and analytic engines, an underlying GIS system allowing access to a wide variety of geographic and census data, and easy graphical creation of battlefield scenarios. The FOX tool is being delivered to CECOM under our the Army Research Laboratory (ARL) Federated Lab Consortium work.
