Abstract

It should be noted that the role of the topographic and geoinformation component in the combat support of the operational group of troops, which is created in the context of hostilities, has recently increased significantly. The use of analytical and forecasting geoinformation models to solve problems of geospatial (topographic) support of troops, to replace analytical and forecasting activities based only on their own experience and limited information – improves the quality of tasks; allows you to simplify and increase the speed of tasks; automatically obtain reliable geospatial information while supporting decision-making with minimal time. Geographic information systems based on modern computer technologies allow to combine images of the territory (electronic display of maps, diagrams, space, aerial images of the earth's surface) with information of tabular type (various types of data) in the form of analytical and forecasting model of geoprocessing. Ability to develop additional geoinformation models (geoprocessing models) to solve various "custom" tasks – this allows them to be used in analytical and forecasting activities to perform geospatial support tasks in the preparation and conduct of hostilities. In the future, the trend of using analytical and forecasting geoinformation models to solve the problems of geospatial support of troops in hostilities will only grow. This is due to the development of information technology; increasing exponentially the amount of information that commanders (staffs) process when planning or making decisions; using the data of unmanned aerial vehicles, increasing the requirements for efficiency and quality of geospatial support of hostilities; increasing the geoinformation aspect in the topographic and navigational and navigation support of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
