The unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is gaining importance as a means of acquiring real-time information under difficult environmental and battlefield conditions. In Operation Desert Storm, UAVs were effective in gathering information and in searching for mobile, semi-permanent assets. UAV systems provided reconnaissance, surveillance, target acquisition, and battle damage assessment. A recent Army project integrated GPS tracking, video imaging, and 3-D visual simulation in an investigation of their benefits to the usefulness of UAVs. Construction of the simulation database entailed the use of digital stereophotogrammetric techniques to orthorectify USGS NAPP photographs. Numerous digital orthophotographs were mosaicked together and used as texture atop digital terrain elevation data to generate the simulated environment.
