Effects of Terrain, Maneuver Tactics, and C4ISR on the Effectiveness of Long-Range Precision Fires

A Stochastic Multiresolution Model (PEM) Calibrated to High-Resolution Simulation

Cover Image

By: Paul K. Davis, James H. Bigelow, Jimmie McEver

This study was motivated by the results of high-resolution simulations of long-range precision fires that were employed against an invader marching through mixed terrain. It describes a fast-running, stochastic, multiresolution desktop model and its calibration to data from high-resolution simulation.
