Abstract/ Foreword

To enable effective operational decisions and combat mission execution on the battlefield during war, access to reliable, accurate, and timely data is essential. We propose utilizing Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to analyze extensive datasets, as modern military operations rely on accurate spatial terrain mapping for command, control, communication, and coordination. This study introduces a terrain analysis approach tailored to military vehicle movement, focusing on assessing ground resilience to vehicle traffic and predicting terrain trafficability for optimal route planning.
For this analysis, we calculated effective movement zones between designated points, factoring in landscape, terrain relief, and soil conditions. Movement routes were strategically planned, incorporating both potential obstacles and forecasted trafficability. GIS was employed to generate maps showing equipment reach within specific timeframes and to document optimized routes.
This method provides a predictive assessment of soil trafficability, enabling precise route calculation for military vehicles across various operational settings within designated areas.
