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...
