C4ISTAR systems to facilitate battle management

London, United Kingdom (prHWY.com) March 26, 2013 - C4ISTAR, meaning Command, Control, Communication, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance, deals with collecting, processing, prioritizing and presenting all data necessary to facilitate battle management. C4ISTAR systems are vital in giving commanding officers all the necessary information, as well as the processing capacity to justify and reinforce their decision-making process. These systems are at the heart of the battle management vision of a highly interoperable and fully integrated military force. They have been changing the landscape of military battle management, and will continue to do so as technologies improve.


The main issue facing C4ISTAR systems is managing a vast multitude of information forces and the huge amount of data coming in. Information forces range from intelligence reports submitted by individual soldiers, to raw satellite information and different ground, sea or air units. Having such a wealth of information and such a large perspective on military situations can prove to be vital to the success of battle management, and so it is of utmost importance to military operations. All intelligence derived from all sources must be accurate, and must be delivered in a timely manner. The information itself must exist and be transmitted via a secure connection, in a secure, integrated environment to guarantee data privacy and accuracy.


C4ISTAR systems take on this redoubtable task through the integration of systems. To ensure that military operations can be conducted successfully, existing and future systems must be able to exchange information efficiently. Since this is such an important task, integration requires innovative thinking, as it poses many risks and issues. To ensure the desired system interoperability can be achieved, several different technologies will all be essential. These systems can be customized, to fit the exact specifications of any particular system it's to be integrated with.


First and foremost, any C4ISTAR system will have mission planning, control and monitoring systems. This is essential for battle management operations. It is interesting to observe that, with the advance of the concept of "shared responsibility", world Governments are reducing spending on military hardware, and are increasing their investment in IT infrastructure and related military projects. A trend has been observed, where hardware investments are directed towards equipping individual soldiers, and military units with integrated Soldier Systems. On the command side of the operation, on the other hand, higher emphasis is placed on communications systems, radio software, defense logistics and information infrastructure.


C4ISTAR systems often guarantee secure data communication systems to be used on public networks. This is a more budget-friendly alternative, when compared to the costs inherent in developing and setting up C4I -Command, Control, Communications, Computers and (Military) Intelligence--systems. These systems display the secure data transmitted to operators using state-of-the-art techniques, including graph animation, and synoptic diagrams.


Command, Control, Communication, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance systems, also known as C4ISTAR http://www.wbresearch.com/soldiertechnologyeurope/focusdaytwo.aspx are central to Defence Technology strategies around the world. C4ISTAR systems are vital to battle management http://www.wbresearch.com/soldiertechnologyeurope/dayone.aspx operations, and the systems are highly customizable, to fit your specific needs and requirements.
