Abstract:

This report documents subject matter experts SMEs assessments of the knowledge base of the Avenue of Approach Comparison Tool AACT, a module of the AirLand Battle Management ALBM Advanced Technology Demonstration ATD decision aid prototype, version 1.2. This is one of a series of assessments of the ALBM ATD prototype conducted during its development. AACT analyzes and rank orders automatically or manually generated Avenues of Approach AAs for tactical planning. It rank orders the AAs using a Multi-Attribute Utility Analysis approach and an automated terrain data base. SMEs judged the AACT ability to query the automated terrain data base for terrain data to be very useful. However, the underlying procedures and analysis factors, as they are at this time, may not yield acceptable results. Suggestions for improvement are provided.
