Briefly, optimized information should be geographically
presented by COP; right on time, with sufficient detail
and in correct form.
Situation awareness in COP does not cover real time data
connectivity with sensor systems and weapon systems.
Hence, situation awareness in COP, does not concern;
real time image interpretation, target acquisition and
weapon systems engagements.
Meanwhile, COP does not only serve for the decision
mechanisms but also for the connected network users.
COP, improves situation awareness of those about
common view of the battle space, and belongs to a
specific time period.
At the COP, the browser application is an interface that
collects the data from different sources and combines
them at the same picture as each “recognized picture” is
an independent process that listens to database, sockets,
etc for the info changed such as;

4. CONCLUSIONS
GIS is a specifically improved tool, in order to manage
the digital geospatial information. In order to operate a
GIS properly, there are some basic components. GIS has
a wide potential in terms of application areas. One of the
major GIS application areas is armed forces applications,
At the beginning of the evolution process, GIS was a
standalone tool. According to the last technical and
strategic trends, GIS has become an integral module of
CCIS. Most of the geospatial analysis capabilities and
functional utilities of the GIS were developed and
adopted to Functional Area Services of CCIS. Specific
sub-modules have also been added. Standards for
geospatial information, database architecture etc. were
identified. Geo databases were established with a very
wide spectrum of geospatial information. In accordance
with the results of various tests and trials, the most
effective architecture was identified as; “WEB based
GIS architecture with RDBMS based spatial data
storage”.
With the implementation of these test results, some new
applications have been developed such as COP. In the
near future, connectivity, data integrity and
interoperability will be the main issues of CCIS and GIS.
