    CHAPTER 57 The Role of GIS in Military Strategy, Operations and Tactics Steven D. Fleming, Michael D. Hendricks and John A. Brockhaus 57.1 Introduction The United States military has used geospatial information in every conflict throughout its history of warfare. Until the last quarter century, geospatial information used by commanders on the battlefield was in the form of paper maps. Of note, these maps played pivotal roles on the littoral battlegrounds of Normandy, Tarawa and Iwo Jima (Greiss 1984; Ballendorf 2003). Digital geospatial data were employed extensively for the first time during military actions on Grenada in 1983 (Cole 1998). Since then, our military has conducted numerous operations while preparing for many like contingencies (Cole 1998; Krulak 1999). US forces have and will continue to depend on maps—both analog and digital—as baseline planning tools for military operations that employ both Legacy and Objective Forces (Murray and O’Leary 2002). Important catalysts involved in transitioning the US military from dependency on analog to digital products include: (1) the Global Positioning System (GPS); (2) unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs); (3) high-resolution satellite imagery; and (4) geographic information systems (GISs) (NIMA 2003). In addressing these four important catalysts, this review is first structured to include a summary of geospatial data collection technologies, traditional and state-of-the-art, relevant to military operations and, second, to examine GIS integration of these data for use in military applications. The application that will be addressed is the devel- opment and analysis of littoral warfare (LW) databases used to assess maneuvers in coastal zones (Fleming et al.

This E-Book was created by some of our best researchers who traveled the web from east to west and from north to south to find and compile some of the best drinking games that will keep your party alive and going. Enjoy!! Party Like Sophia 1 of 75 Game #1: Beer Pong What you need: Ping pong table Pack of ping-pong balls Pack of 16oz plastic cups How to play: You can play beer pong in teams of one or two players. You will need to set up two formations of 10 cups on either end of the ping-pong table. The cups should form a triangle, similar to how balls are racked at the beginning of a game of pool. Fill each cup with roughly three to four ounces of beer. Each team stands on either side of the table. The goal is to toss a ping- pong ball into one of the cups on the opposing team’s side. You can toss the ball directly into a cup, and the opposing team is not permitted to try to swat the ball away. Or, for an easier shot, you can bounce the ball when you toss it, but in this scenario, the opposing team is permitted to try to swat the ball away. When a ball lands in a cup, a member of the opposing team has to drink it.
