Abstract

War Conflicts in the past twenty years have shown the need to digitalize the battlefield. The commander needs a lot of input data for his right decision. These data are necessary for an automated decision-making process. For the successful planning of routes of movement, whether in peace or combat conditions, it is required to know the terrain and at the same time the use of algorithms for finding the correct paths. The determination of the level of Cross-Country Movement (abbr. CCM), or also the traffic ability of the terrain, is the basis for this right decision. Analysis of the Cross-Country Movement means the assessment of several geographical and tactical, technical and human factors together, i.e. that it is multi-criterial analysis. Finding the optimal path based on specified criteria (security, distance, economic cost, time) is not a trivial matter and therefore testing road conditions in the field is carried out. These tests validate the previous calculations.
