Abstract
ATCIS (Army Tactical Command Information System) provides commanders and staff officers the battlefield information that is reported by tactical echelons under an army corps and the commanders make decisions based on the information by using their experience and specialty in military domain. If ATICS can automatically understand the reported information from rapidly changing battlefield and provide new knowledge that can support decision making, the commanders would be able to make faster and more accurate decision. In this paper, therefore, we propose an intelligent ATCIS using a national defense ontology. To this end, we built the national defense ontology by analyzing the electronic field manuals and ATCIS database, and then we defined military knowledge for decision making as a form of rule by interviewing several staff officers from different fields. In order to show how to apply the ontology and rules to decision making support for the commanders, we implemented a decision support service to estimate the possibility of enemy's provocation by using semantic web technologies.
