Create realistic, dynamic map displays for command-and-control systems. ILOG JViews Maps for Defense is a comprehensive set of software editors and graphics components. Applications deliver unparalleled flexibility and openness. Commanders and staff gain the visualization capabilities to efficiently prepare, monitor and direct military operations.

Build custom command-and-control applications
Ready-to-use tools and extensible SDKs let you build custom military command-and-control applications. ILOG JViews Maps for Defense supports military map formats, custom and standard symbol sets, and terrain analysis. The MapBuilder tool (based on the library and delivered with full source code) employs a rule-based presentation layer. Users can update the appearance and position of assets as underlying data evolves.

• A full complement of 3D views and terrain analysis functions . In addition to "top down" 2D views, JViews Maps for Defense provides perspective views that allow users to see their assets from any angle. Terrain analysis features include line-of-sight calculations, areas of visibility and complex line-of-sight terrain cuts.
• Flexible, cross-platform approach allows you to create dedicated, vendor-independent custom solutions.
• Prebuilt and pretested components save in-house development costs.
• Defense-specific components include all major military map formats and symbol sets, such as NATO APP6a/MIL STD-2525B; high-precision grids and coordinate systems; terrain analysis services; and many customizable graphical representations.
