Candidate Applications Analyses for the Army Research Institute/National Training Center Data Base

Abstract : The potential value of ARI/POM conducting secondary analyses of the NTC (National Training Center) combat engagement data is discussed. The data are unique and can provide important information to a variety of Army users in addition to ARI. The report describes potential uses of the ARI/NTC data base and identifies candidate applications of these analytic efforts. Major implications of these analyses are identified in the areas of training, doctrine, personnel and resource management, and human factors research and development. Potential users of the findings of these analyses are identified to include Department of the Army, TRADOC, FORSCOM, and the human factors R&D community. The information can assist ARI in the development of plans to employ the NTC Data Base, in undertaking secondary analyses and in supplying Army Commands with information which will assist them in combat and training developments.
