Matrix is a set of software tools for recording and replaying operator workstation activity, audio, and DIS derived data metrics in real time. Trainers and analysts can replay the recorded data using TiVo like controls to watch and hear an exercise as it unfolded live during an exercise. Exeros simulates the visual components of a regional situational awareness system. Exeros lets you define multiple 3D views from the perspective of fixed ground locations. These views show terrain elevation data, satellite imagery data (using World Wind Java), and 3D buildings for the area of interest. DIS and J3.2 messages are used to display air entities.
