EXONAUT – MASTERING CHAOS JTLS User Conference 2011 Monterey, CA Mikael Edqvist Vice President, Business Development [email protected] +46 706 12 76 78 Navigating uncertainty 1 4C STRATEGIES • 4C is based in the United Kingdom & Sweden • R&A and 4C have started a dialogue on how JTLS & Exonaut can enhance the training effect delivered • 4C have decided to invest in JTLS & Exonaut integration as part of our overall product development plan Navigating uncertainty EXONAUT BASICS Exonaut is an training & exercise management system that support CAX (and non-CAX training) from the scheduling phase to the evaluation phase… • Challenge we saw 2000 • Basics − Reuse exercise data between exercises − Coordinate scenario/plan documents information between up to 400 concurrent users Navigating uncertainty • Developed since 2000 (v6) • Server – Client software (stand-alone operation is also possible) • Web or Mobile enabled • Multi-Lingual 3 • • • • • English (Military & Civilian) German Arabic Swedish Danish THE EXONAUT SYSTEM JTLS THE INTEGRATED EXONAUT TOOLBOX MAPS Training & Exercise Calendar • Schedule training events • Long term planner • Plan exercise conferences & execution dates • Report generation Navigating uncertainty HLA(1516) / DIS Permissions Security ADL Training & Exercise Manager Scenario Information Manager Training Progression Manager • Fusion exercise plan and simulation data • Track workflow throughout EXCON • Plan scenario (MEL/MIL) • Control EXCON activities • Analyze training events • Generate an asymetrical scenario • Compare scenario data with TA reported data to allow AAR • Analyze “2-function” assessments • Identify training risk • Track training objectives for units • Observe units performance during training • Can automatically aggregate reports on performance 4 THE MULTI-COMPLEX CHAOS… JTLS TA & C4I Navigating uncertainty OBJECTIVES Non simulated SCENARIO & PLANS EXONAUT SYSTEM EXERCISE SCHEDULING MEASURING TRAINING EFFECT JTLS PLANNING & EXECUTION OF AN EXERCISE Navigating uncertainty KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT 3 CDO DURING OP HERRIC 2010 4C EXPERIENCE FROM CAX • Challenge − Constructive simulation can be found abstract by commanders? − Simulation is sometimes left ”on the sidelines” of the planning R&A & 4C Assumption: Sharing information will − Simulation bring unique createto an 1 +1 = 3 situation consequence training • Value − Exercise Management bring better coordination / workflow Navigating uncertainty 7 EXERCISE EXECUTION Enemy JTLS Situation on the ground So much more… ExonautExercise Plan Exercise Objectives Exercise Value for simulation staff; Blue Forces - a better understanding of the Red Forcesexercise plan… Enemy Suspect Neutral Value for the exercise managers; - a better understanding of the White situation on the ground Forces Orange Friend Friend Neutral Forces Enemy Enemy Friend Navigating uncertainty EXONAUT + JTLS DURING CAX EXONAUT coordinating all JTLS and non JTLS related events during the exercise Navigating uncertainty EVALUATION IN JTLS & EXONAUT Support observation & Evaluation of; TBMCS - (U.S.) Training Events ICC (NATO) - Unit performance Evaluations stored In Exonaut Online 3-D Entity Viewer Observations Air SIM NATO C2 Java Template Builder SOF After Action Review Scenario Recorder Entity Level Server Ground Maritime HLA Interface Program Logistics Operational Interface (C4I) HLA – RTI Intelligence PACER Google Earth Common Operational Picture GCCS ADSI C2PC TADIL-J OTH-GOLD BFT Navigating uncertainty WEB Services: Apache Server WHIP Replay Player Workstation JTLS & EXONAUT INTEGRATION IDEA - INTEGRATED EXERCISE MANAGEMENT • Copy and paste − Saved 50% time during planning of Div. size exercise scenario − Scenario repositories • We had an enhanced realism with Exonaut integrated − less ”forced interaction” with 30% during exercise day 3-8 compared to previous exercises • The Training Progression audit trail give invaluable input to future training − Before training commanders can go through previous experiences related to the objectives they are to train on Navigating uncertainty 11 OUR WAY FORWARD • Integration discussions with R&A • Focus on the user − “Plug and Play” modules (2012-2014) − AAR using a fusion of JTLS data and Exonaut captured AAR data − Flexibility in information creation (support different scenario structures) Navigating uncertainty Stockholm • Malmö • London Mikael Edqvist Vice President, Business Development [email protected] +46 706 12 76 78 Navigating uncertainty
