JOCS

The Joint Operational Command System (JOCS) provides digitised tools for controlling joint operations.

In concert with the formation of the Joint Rapid Reaction Force there was a requirement for a joint computer system. The Joint Operational Command System (JOCS) was brought into service during 1999. This system provides a sophisticated operational picture, along with staff tools for controlling joint operations. It uses the latest commercial technology and web browsing techniques for publishing and distributing information. This system, combined with ATacCS, set the standard for future Battlefield Information System Applications to achieve the digitised battlespace of the 21st century.
