Comparison of test site and overseas deployment site intervisibility characteristics

Comparison of test site and overseas deployment site intervisibility characteristics

Intervisibility characteristics are critical to ground combat forces in shaping results of U.S. Army operational tests. An important question is: Are the results of a test conducted at a specific test site valid for a different deployment site? The thesis develops a methodology to help answer this q...
