    The document describes a Python script called QuickTerrain.tbx that automates common spatial queries for military brigades. The script takes terrain and imagery inputs and calculates slope, vegetation indices, and artillery range fans to identify vehicle mobility corridors and indirect fire coverage. It was originally envisioned as a single script but became three scripts and a model to handle the processing intensive tasks and interface requirements. The goal is to produce a single map that highlights vehicle mobility limits and artillery support areas.

    Spatial Queries

    AUTOMATING MILITARY SPATIAL QUERIES KEVIN H. LAWHON

    GIS 540,

    Problem
    Each Brigade sized element (3-5K people) in the Army has a small GIS section
    of 2-3 Soldiers
    Each Soldier has the equivalent of GIS 510/520 level training, but no
    programing experience
    As a result, many common spatial queries are done manually (time consuming)

    Solution: Use Python to automate routine


    processes
    Answer the questions Where can I move? and Where can I shoot?

    Short Comings
    Originally envisioned as 1x script- Ended up as 3 scripts
    plus a model (could not properly apply scheme to select
    artillery points from GUI)
    Too much geo-processing in a single script for too large
    a data set (Computationally intensive)
    When HTML user defined function was removed from
    single script, it lost the functionality to display images
    Linkage between script tool and script are not quite
    there

    Desired Output
    A Single MXD that highlights mobility corridors
    for military vehicles and shows how they can
    be covered with indirect fire (Artillery)
