| dc.description.abstract | Janus(A) is a wargaming simulation in which opposing army forces interact within a pre-specified terrain database. The smallest unit of area in the terrain is 100 meters by 100 meters. Work is described which utilizes a one meter by one meter terrain database, allowing existing detection and acquisition algorithms to become more dynamic and more realistic. Development of a line of sight algorithm used to incorporate the higher resolution database is discussed. The resulting algorithm is demonstrated in a simulation of a target moving through obstructions contained within a limited terrain described by the one meter database. | en_US |

Comparison of Janus(A) simulated terrain vegetation codes to modified Janus(A) terrain vegetation codes for the Javelin antitank operational test
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1993-09);The purpose of this thesis is to compare and analyze the effects of the Janus(A) default terrain database and a Janus(A) modified terrain database on a modeled Javelin operational test. An eight meter resolution terrain ... -
Visualization of high-resolution digital terrain
