With rapid technological developments, a new innovative range of possibilities can be actualized in mainstreaming a network with checks and balances to provide sensor and tracking data integration/information to a wider Department of Defense (DoD) audience or group of agencies. As technologies are developed, methods to display the data are required. Multiple diverse tracking devices and sensors need to be displayed on a common operating picture. Sensors and tracking devices are used to monitor an area or object for movement or boundary penetration. Tracking devices in turn determine transit patterns of humans, animals and/or vehicles. In consortium these devices can have dual applications for military requirements and for other general purposes. The DoD Counterdrug Technology Development Program Office (CDTDPO) has designed a system to distribute sensor and tracking data to multiple users in separate agencies. This information can be displayed in whole or in part as to the specific needs of the user. It is with this purpose that the Data Distribution Network (DDN) was created to disseminate information to a collective group or to a select audience.
