Sitaware
SitaWare provides a modern framework for CCIS
Situational awareness is critical in staying ahead of battlespace developments.
SitaWare offers the ability to acquire, view, analyse, and distribute mission-critical
operational information. It allows you to plan upcoming operations and track status
on military units currently deployed, thereby providing core Command and Control
Information System (CCIS) functionality.
Optimised presentaion of information
SitaWare includes an integrated Graphical Information System (GIS), making the geographical
map the central part of the system and enabling direct display and manipulation
of units and graphics on the map.

units move toward a Hostile Estate to conduct a House and Area Search. Meanwhile
a Recce Squad is supplying them with information on the area from a hidden observation
post.
The integrated GIS provides a wide range of functionality within the product which
are described in detail in the SitaWare Whitepaper, but most importantly, it also
allows for project specific development of features or integration of 3rd
party add-ons directly against the GIS APIs.

from where units and graphics can be added by drag and drop to quickly update the
map when new situations arise.
Enhancing Own Force Security
The BMS enhances the security of own forces and minimises the risk of friendly fire
through the COP and by e.g. enabling current adjustments to plans that are distributed
instantly to relevant parties. Sketches of plans can even be drawn directly on the
screen and be displayed to other units or to HQ immediately.

General Capabilities
SitaWare can be used as a comprehensive command and control system or it can be
integrated as a component in your own system. Modular, object-oriented design enables
extendibility and easy customisation to fit your specific needs. SitaWare is also
a useful tool for test and references. Several of our customers use it to verify
interoperability of national military implementations.
Interoperability
Used in conjunction with Systematic's IRIS Replication Mechanism (IRM), SitaWare
facilitates the flow of information between organisations. Information distribution
is carried out using the IRIS Replication Mechanism and message-based communication
using the IRIS organisational messaging software, IOM for Outlook. Read more about
our IRIS Replication Mechanism. Read more about our IOM for Outlook.
