Abstract

Trends in military equipment have introduced new weapon systems that match the 21st century requirements for effective firepower but most of all information retrieval and processing. Network Enabled Capabilities doctrine provides innovative approach for information process on the battlefield fusing all available data sources into one reasoning environment with the ability to maintain and distribute accurate information to all actors (weapon systems) and decision nodes (command centers). This work presents results of conducted research on the field of designing and developing decision support system which is based on distributed services utilising military domain ontology as interoperability layer. Usage of ontology and reasoning capabilities allowed us to unify the semantics between system nodes providing integration many standards for combat scenario data representation APP-6A, NFFI, JC3IEDM.
