Research and implementation of visualization technology for Virtual Battlefield Environment

Understanding the huge data arriving from battlefield and combining it into a single comprehensive view of the battlefield can be extremely difficult, error prone, and time consuming. Virtual battlefield system has been proven to be able to provide situational awareness as well as to support for conducting planning and shaping operations. In this paper, a series of visualization technologies for different branches of virtual battlefield, which was categorized by its spatial property as well as diversity weapon used were presented, respectively. Experimental results were introduced to illustrate how these technologies could be employed to construct a typical Virtual Battlefield Environment (VBE) visualization system.
