Challenges SE Core is SolvingChallenges SE Core is Solving
1. Multiple types of terrain source data required to support training enterprise– Terrain Database requirements for LVC Simulations varied & complex
2. Source data provided is uncorrelated– Correlation of source data is labor intensive– SE Core has a process established to minimize correlation issues
3. Use of approved standards for terrain data– SE Core is standards based (ISO 191xx and ISO/IEC 180xx)– SE Core uses industry standards (Shape Files, OpenFlight, etc)
4. Most simulations utilize an application specific runtime database compiled and optimized for the target simulation– SE Core provides not only industry standard formats, but runtime formats, too– SE Core has developed interoperable databases between AVCATT and CCTT– SE Core supports legacy IGs

Challenges SE Core is SolvingChallenges SE Core is Solving
1. High Resolution Mission Rehearsal Terrain DBs with geo-specific structures and vegetation still require months to create
– SE Core has developed a process that reduces the time to create terrain databases
– SE Core has created a model library that is over 500 common moving models
2. Lack of web-based repositories for users to share and re-use existing terrain databases
– SE Core is working with AMSO to share our products through their web resources
– SE Core is working with the USAF and Navy to exchange our data in common formats
3. SE Core is entering into exchange agreements with Coalition Allies
7
SE Core StrategySE Core Strategy
1. Effective solutions to terrain problems are complex and sometimes costlyo SE Core is a funded PORo Leveraging industry solutions (market for capability)o Leverage Service investments by entering into data sharing
agreements
2. Have establish requirements pedigree from TRADOC Capabilities Manager – Virtual (TCM-V)o SE Core requirements set by out TCM-Vo TCM-V socialize with stakeholderso Includes all requirements for LVC
3. TCM-V is proponent and has established a solid resourcing stream
New SE Core contract in source selection

SE Core Strategy (Continued)SE Core Strategy (Continued)
Further resources coming as others embrace SE Coreo Programso Industryo Services
Be able to ingest data from in all common formatso DTED, CIB, OpenFlight, IFSAR,VMAP, Buckeye, etco SE Core has a list of over 160 data products from a variety of
data providers that are available for each database
