IRRIS: White Paper
Abstract:
IRRIS technology is a first-of-its-kind Web-based portal assisting the Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command Transportation Engineering Agency (SDDCTEA) in its core mission to improve the global deployment of U.S. Armed Forces in support of the National Military Strategy. On a daily basis, SDDCTEA uses patented IRRIS technology to effectively manage, document, and synchronize the movement of cargo, transported over land and sea, throughout the world. IRRIS technology integrates transportation logistics, real-time tracking, and infrastructure data into a single, secure application accessible through the Internet. With real-time and relevant information about road conditions, construction, incidents, and weather from more than 150 worldwide data sets, IRRIS technology enables SDDCTEA to visualize assets and perform spatial queries and analysis, such as plume modeling to depict the effects of hazardous materials and/or explosives on any geographic area.
