Maintaining situational awareness to effectively assert command and control over operations is critical. The âBase of the Futureâ must have the ability to organize, understand, plan, direct, and monitor operations. During a natural or man-made disaster, timely restoration of normal operations and proper identification of factors affecting triage decisions require coordinated information flow between base personnel, first responders and various echelons of analysts and managers. Methods of assessing the gravity of an emerging situation lack sufficient real-time data and analytics, and effective support for collaboration. Communications are subject to human error and the information environment is dynamic which prevents responders from getting the whole picture. Slingshot proposes a solution that will support the creation of the âBase of the Future,â and in particular address challenges encountered when Hurricane Michael struck Tyndall AFB in 2018. Slingshotâs web-based Earth Portal⢠is an intuitive application that gives users robust access to geospatial data and visualization, task management tools, and analytics. Users can collaborate using Earth Portalâs built-in annotation tools to assign tasks, upload photos and take notes on various base maps utilizing a mobile application that provides automatic geolocation and annotation capabilities to facilitate on-the-go collaboration thereby improving the Commanderâs
