The FOI C4ISR demonstration 2008

In this paper, we describe the C4ISR demonstration performed by FOI in 2008. The demonstration combined the results from research projects on surveillance, communication and information fusion. A scenario where Swedish forces conduct peace-support operations in a fictitious country was used. Both low and high-level information fusion was demonstrated. Data from synthetic-aperture radar, underwater surveillance systems, video surveillance and intelligence information was fused using Impactorium, which allowed users to sort and filter reports and perform a threat assessment. Forensic analysis using video data was also shown, as well as semantic queries using the semantic Milwiki. Evaluations of the demonstrations show that research in sensor, communication and fusion system is relevant to the current and future missions of the Swedish Armed Forces.
