Abstract
Methods for implementing a training facility, e.g., a military or law enforcement training facility, for a geographic location having at least one proposed observer position, e.g., a firing position, and at least one proposed target position are provided. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving design data (for instance, a digital terrain model) indicative of the geographic location, receiving data indicative of the proposed observer position and the proposed target position, applying the data indicative of the proposed observer position and the proposed target position to the design data creating modified design data, and conducting a line-of-sight analysis of the modified design data between the proposed observer position and the proposed target position.
