2. Agenda 1.Introduction 2.How to create a high-resolution map for JTLS ? 3.Conclusions

3. Introduction The first hex map of Poland (2004)

4. Produce hex net of area for GIS system coordinates of the hex’es GIS layer How to create a high-resolution map for JTLS ? Step 1Step 2Step 3Step 4Step 5

5. How to create a high-resolution map for JTLS ? Forest areas Depth...... Elevation Rivers and lakes Roads Urban areas........ Preparing terrain definition layers (forests, urban areas, waters, roads, rivers, bathymetric map of the Baltic sea, elevation) Step 1Step 2Step 3Step 4Step 5

6. geo- databas e How to create a high-resolution map for JTLS ? Load layers of terrain definition to the geodatabase Layers of terrain definition Depth Elevation Rivers and lakes Roads Urban areas Forest areas Step 1Step 2Step 3Step 4Step 5

7. geo- database Calculations and Transformation Calculations And Transformations Dedicated application for: - making decision concerning type of terrain for each hex ; - making decision concerning definition of the barriers for the hexes; - checking integrity of the database. How to create a high-resolution map for JTLS ? Step 1Step 2Step 3Step 4Step 5

8. Data conversion from HEX geo-database to ASCII file (.hx) ready to use in the JTLS system HEX geo- database How to create a high-resolution map for JTLS ? Step 1Step 2Step 3Step 4Step 5
